This makes easier to read and debug these tests. This also reduces test lines count by 15% from 3K to 2.5K .

While at it, consistently use t.Fatal* instead of t.Error*, since t.Error* usually leads
to more complicated and fragile tests, while it doesn't bring any practical benefits over t.Fatal*.
- Return meta-labels for the discovered targets via promutils.Labels
instead of map[string]string. This improves the speed of generating
meta-labels for discovered targets by up to 5x.
- Remove memory allocations in hot paths during ScrapeWork generation.
The ScrapeWork contains scrape settings for a single discovered target.
This improves the service discovery speed by up to 2x.
Cache sanitized label names and return them next time.
This reduces the number of allocations and speeds up the SanitizeLabelName()
function for common case when the number of unique label names is smaller than 100k
