- Postpone the pre-poulation to the last hour of the current day. This should reduce the number
of useless entries in the next per-day index, which shouldn't be created there,
when the corresponding time series are stopped to be pushed during the current day.
- Make the pre-population more smooth in time by using the hash of MetricID instead of MetricID itself
when calculating the need for for the given MetricID pre-population.
- Sync the logic for pre-population of the next day inverted index with the logic of pre-populating tsid cache
after indexdb rotation. This should improve code maintainability.

* lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation
IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying
time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path.
IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data.
It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is
rotated once in `retention` interval.
The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`,
and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time,
VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods.
When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present
in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB.
If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way
`current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention
period.
To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both
write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens.
When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion
path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population
requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra
load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases,
for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead
to performance degradation for some period of time.
This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation.
The changes are following:
1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation;
2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which
they belong;
3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was
found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches:
3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID.
3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch,
add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`.
3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB.
In this case, we add it to the `current` indexDB with some probability.
The probability is based on time passed since the last rotation with some threshold.
The more time has passed since rotation the higher is chance to re-populate `current` indexDB.
The default re-population interval in this PR is set to `1h`, during which entries from
`previous` index supposed to slowly re-populate `current` index.
The new metric `vm_timeseries_repopulated_total` was added to identify how many TSIDs
were moved from `previous` indexDB to the `current` indexDB. This metric supposed to
grow only during the first `1h` after the last rotation.

This should improve data ingestion speed if time series samples are ingested with interval bigger than 2 minutes.
The actual interval could exceed 2 minutes if the original interval between samples doesn't exceed 2 minutes
in the case of slow inserts. Slow inserts may appear in the following cases:
* Big number of new time series are pushed to VictoriaMetrics, so they couldn't be registered in 2 minutes.
* MetricName->tsid cache reset on indexdb rotation or due to unclean shutdown.
In this case VictoriaMetrics needs to load MetricName->tsid entries for all the incoming series from IndexDB.
IndexDB uses the block cache for increasing lookup performance. If the cache has no the needed block,
then IndexDB reads and unpacks the block from disk. This requires an extra disk read IO and CPU.
See https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2007
This also should increase performance for periodically executed queries with intervals from 2 minutes to 5 minutes.
See the previous similar commit - 43103be011
It is possible that the timeout can be increased further. Let's collect production numbers for this change
so the timeout could be adjusted further.
Previously limits for new caches were taken from cache stats.
These limits could mismatch the original limits. This could result in failed cache load
if the stored cache has been created with the limits obtained from cache stats.
This metric shows the number of CPU cores available to the process.
This allows creating alerting rules on CPU saturation with the following query:
rate(process_cpu_seconds_total[5m]) / process_cpu_cores_available > 0.9

Previously bytesutil.Resize() was copying the original byte slice contents to a newly allocated slice.
This wasted CPU cycles and memory bandwidth in some places, where the original slice contents wasn't needed
after slize resizing. Switch such places to bytesutil.ResizeNoCopy().
Rename the original bytesutil.Resize() function to bytesutil.ResizeWithCopy() for the sake of improved readability.
Additionally, allocate new slice with `make()` instead of `append()`. This guarantees that the capacity of the allocated slice
exactly matches the requested size. The `append()` could return a slice with bigger capacity as an optimization for further `append()` calls.
This could result in excess memory usage when the returned byte slice was cached (for instance, in lib/blockcache).

Previously these caches could exceed limits set via `-memory.allowedPercent` and/or `-memory.allowedBytes`,

This should handle the case when the original job_name has been changed in -promscrape.config ,
while the resulting job label remains the same because it is overriden via relabeling.
For example, `{__graphite__=~"foo.(bar|baz)"}` is automatically converted to `{__graphite__=~"foo.{bar,baz}"}` before execution.
This allows using multi-value Grafana template variables such as `{__graphite__=~"foo.($app)"}`.

This should make visible the set flags at flag.Visit(), which is used later for logging
and exporting the `is_set` label for these flags at /metrics page
Stream parsing mode can be automatically enabled when scraping targets with big response bodies
exceeding the -promscrape.minResponseSizeForStreamParse , so it must be always initialized.
This allows sending staleness marks and properly calculate scrape_series_added metric in stream parsing mode
at the cost of the increased memory usage, since now the potentially big response is kept
in the lastScrape byte slice per each scrapeWork.
In practice the memory usage increase shouldn't be big, since the response size
is usually much smaller than the parsed metrics from this response after the relabeling,
which usually adds a big pile of target-specific labels per each metric.

Also reduce CPU usage when applying `series_limit` to scrape targets with constant set of metrics.
The main idea is to perform the calculations on scrape_series_added and series_limit
only if the set of metrics exposed by the target has been changed.
Scrape targets rarely change the set of exposed metrics,
so this optimization should reduce CPU usage in general case.
These actions simlify metrics filtering. For example,
- action: keep_metrics
regex: 'foo|bar|baz'
would leave only metrics with `foo`, `bar` and `baz` names, while the rest of metrics will be deleted.
The commit also makes possible to split long regexps into multiple lines. For example, the following config is equivalent to the config above:
- action: keep_metrics
regex:
- foo
- bar
- baz
The number of series per target can be limited with the following options:
* Global limit with `-promscrape.maxSeriesPerTarget` command-line option.
* Per-target limit with `max_series: N` option in `scrape_config` section.

Store the scraped response body instead of storing the parsed and relabeld metrics.
This should reduce memory usage, since the response body takes less memory than the parsed and relabeled metrics.
This is especially true for Kubernetes service discovery, which adds many long labels for all the scraped metrics.
This should also reduce CPU usage, since the marshaling of the parsed
and relabeld metrics has been substituted by response body copying.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1526
This option allows reducing CPU usage a bit when VictoriaMetrics is used
for collecting and processing non-Prometheus data. For example, InfluxDB line protocol, Graphite, OpenTSDB, CSV, etc.
This option can be useful when vmagent consumes too much additional memory
for staleness markers functionality and when staleness markers aren't needed.

Previously the switch occurred when the cache size becomes 100% of its capacity. The cache size could never reach 100% capacity.
This could prevent from switching from the split cache to full cache, thus reducing the cache effectiveness.

This reverts commit 7c6d3981bf.
Reason for revert: high contention at bucket16Pool on systems with big number of CPU cores.
This slows down query processing significantly.
This should reduce memory usage on systems with big number of CPU cores,
since every inmemoryPart object occupies at least 64KB of memory and sync.Pool maintains
a separate pool inmemoryPart objects per each CPU core.
Though the new scheme for the pool worsens per-cpu cache locality, this should be amortized
by big sizes of inmemoryPart objects.
CPU and memory profiles show that the pool capacity for inmemoryBlock objects is too small.
This results in the increased load on memory allocation code in Go runtime.
Increase the pool capacity in order to reduce the load on Go runtime.
This should improve hit ratio for tagFiltersCache when big number of new time series are constantly registered
(aka high churn rate). This, in turn, should reduce CPU usage for queries over such time series.
Previously the stats for cache misses could be improperly counted, because it had inflated cache misses
if the entry was missing in the curr cache, but was existing in the prev cache.
The same applies to cache requests - they were inflated if the entry was missing in the curr cache.
Previously the switch from `split` to `whole` mode had been performed too early,
e.g. when the current cache size became bigger than 1/4 of the allowed cache size.
Now it is performed when the current cache size becomes bigger than 1/2 of the allowed cache size.
This change can reduce memory usage for data ingestion path when big number of active time series are ingested.
One minute cache timeout result in slower queries in some production workloads where the interval
between query execution is in the range 1 minute - 2 minutes.
This should reduce memory usage on a system with high number of active time series and a high churn rate.
One minute is enough for caching the blocks needed for repeated queries (e.g. alerting rules, recording rules and dashboard refreshes).
This should reduce memory usage for the pool on systems with big number of CPU cores.
The sync.Pool maintains per-CPU pools, so the total number of objects in the pool
is proportional to the number of available CPU cores. The channel limits the number
of pooled objects by its own capacity. This means smaller number of pooled objects on average.
This panic can be raised by the reverseProxy on aborted request to the backend.
So handle it (e.g. suppress) at reverseProxy.ServeHTTP call.
Do not suppress the panic at lib/httpserver generic HTTP handler,
since it may result in an inconsistent state left after the panicking handler.

The pool for inmemoryBlock struct doesn't give any performance gains in production workloads,
while it may result in excess memory usage for inmemoryBlock structs inside the pool during
background merge of indexdb.
