Reduce inter-CPU communications when processing the query over big number of time series.
This should improve performance for queries over big number of time series
on systems with many CPU cores.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2896
Based on b596ac3745
Thanks to @zqyzyq for the idea.
The change allows to specify default value for `getScrapeInterval`
function when actual interval can't be calculated.
Before the change, function were returning `maxSilenceInterval` (5m)
in such cases, which may be not correct for instant queries processing.
The specific scenario where using `maxSilenceInterval` caused issues
is the following:
1. Series becomes stale;
2. Client (in this case vmalert) continues to request series every 15s;
3. Database returns empty results as expected;
4. But at some specific moment of time database returns datapoints from `now()-5m`,
because lookback window was extended to `maxSilenceInterval`.

* vmselect: cover special cases for vmalert's routing in single-node version
* remove trailing `/` from requests
* redirect to vmalert's home page when `/vmalert` is requested.

- Use binary search instead of linear scan when locating the run of smallest timestamps
in blocks with intersected time ranges. This should improve performance
when merging blocks with big number of samples
- Skip samples with duplicate timestamps. This should increase query performance
in cluster version of VictoriaMetrics with the enabled replication.
- show dates in human-readable format, e.g. 2022-05-07, instead of a numeric value
- limit the maximum length of queries and filters shown in trace messages
Production experience shows that 100k is too big for /api/v1/series .
It leads to increased CPU usage when Grafana queries /api/v1/series over VictoriaMetrics
with big number of time series during auto-completion and when modifying template variables.
Previously SearchMetricNames was returning unmarshaled metric names.
This wasn't great for vmstorage, which should spend additional CPU time
for marshaling the metric names before sending them to vmselect.
While at it, remove possible duplicate metric names, which could occur when
multiple samples for new time series are ingested via concurrent requests.
Also sort the metric names before returning them to the client.
This simplifies debugging of the returned metric names across repeated requests to /api/v1/series
querytracer has been added to the following storage.Storage methods:
- RegisterMetricNames
- DeleteMetrics
- SearchTagValueSuffixes
- SearchGraphitePaths
* vmselect: limit `end` param max value by 2d in future
The change is applied only to service handlers like `/labels` or `/series`
and limits the `end` param by max value <= now() + 2 days. The same limit
is applied for the ingested data, so no reason to allow to request data
in future far than that.
The change is also needed for corner cases like https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2669
where too high `end` value triggers inefficient global index search.

This allows filling the seriesCountByFocusLabelValue list in the /api/v1/status/tsdb response
with label values for the specified focusLabel, which contain the highest number of time series.
