* vmalert: deprecate alert's status link
Deprecate alert's status link `/api/v1/<groupID>/<alertID>/status` in favour of
`api/v1/alerts?group_id=<group_id>&alert_id=<alert_id>"`.
The change was needed for simplifying logic in vmselect for proxying vmalert's requests.
The old alert's status link will be still supported for a few versions but will be removed in the future.

* make all links in vmalert relative, so links continue to work even if vmalert sits behind the proxy;
* update vmalert's routing to always have component-unique path prefix, e.g. /vmalert;

Unexpectedly, Grafana makes an extra request to `/rules`
handler in addition to `/api/v1/rules` calls in alerts UI.
This happens only for Grafana versions older than 8.5.*.
Apparently, this is related to support of other monitoring
systems.
Prometheus responds with `text/html` content for UI page `/rules`
to such requests. Actually, returning just a blank page with
SC=200 works as well.
Returning actual response of `/api/v1/rules`
results in error in Grafana since it expects a `yaml` (?) in response.
So we add a placeholder to `vmalert`.

* vmalert: add support for `sortByLabel` template function
* vmalert: update API according to Prometheus conformance program
The changes to the API, field names and URL path has been made
according to the Prometheus specification for `alert_generator`
https://github.com/prometheus/compliance/blob/main/alert_generator/specification.md
* vmalert: fix the timestamp of the evaluated rules
The timestamp used for alert's `EndsAt` was calculated
before sending the notification. While the correct way
is to use the timestamp taken right before rules evaluation.
* vmalert: add `-datasource.queryTimeAlignment` flag
The flag is supposed to provide ability to disable `time`
param alignment when executing rules. By default, this flag
is enabled, so it remains backward compatible.
The flag was introduced to achieve better compatibility
with Prometheus behaviour according to https://github.com/prometheus/compliance/blob/main/alert_generator/specification.md

vmalert: support configuration file for notifiers
* vmalert notifiers now can be configured via file
see https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html#notifier-configuration-file
* add support of Consul service discovery for notifiers config
see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1947
* add UI section for currently loaded/discovered notifiers
* deprecate `-rule.configCheckInterval` in favour of `-configCheckInterval`
* add ability to suppress logs for duplicated targets for notifiers discovery
* change behaviour of `vmalert_alerts_send_errors_total` - it now accounts
for failed alerts, not HTTP calls.
The extra `/` may cause issues when additional path prefixes
are configured. Also, removing it makes it consistent
with the rest of declarations.

New UI pages:
/ - welcome page with API handlers list;
/groups - list of all rules per group;
/alerts - list of all active alerts;
/groupID/alertID/status - status of the active alert;
* vmalert: Add recording rules support.
Recording rules support required additional service refactoring since
it wasn't planned to support them from the very beginning. The list
of changes is following:
* new entity RecordingRule was added for writing results of MetricsQL
expressions into remote storage;
* interface Rule now unites both recording and alerting rules;
* configuration parser was moved to separate package and now performs
more strict validation;
* new endpoint for listing all groups and rules in json format was added;
* evaluation interval may be set to every particular group;
* vmalert: uncomment tests
* vmalert: rm outdated TODO
* vmalert: fix typos in README
The change introduces new entity `manager` which replaces
`watchdog`, decouples requestHandler and groups. Manager
supposed to control life cycle of groups, rules and
config reloads.
Groups export an ID method which returns a hash
from filename and group name. ID supposed to be unique
identifier across all loaded groups.
Some tests were added to improve coverage.
Bug with wrong annotation value if $value is used in
templates after metrics being restored fixed.
Notifier interface was extended to accept context.
New set of metrics was introduced for config reload.
* app/vmalert: restore alerts state from datasource metrics
Vmalert will restore alerts state for rules that have `rule.For` > 0 from previously written timeseries via `remotewrite.url` flag.
* app/vmalert: mention remotewerite and remoteread configuration in README
