'any' type is supported starting from Go1.18. Let's consistently use it
instead of 'interface{}' type across the code base, since `any` is easier to read than 'interface{}'.
Prevsiously they were swapped - the first arg should be the label name and the second arg should be label filters

This should improve maintainability of the code related to rollup functions,
since it is located in rollup.go
While at it, properly return empty results from holt_winters(), rate_over_sum(),
sum2_over_time(), geomean_over_time() and distinct_over_time() when there are no real samples
on the selected lookbehind window. Previously the previous sample value was mistakenly
returned from these functions.
changes(), increases_over_time() and resets() shouldn't take into account
value changes, which may occur because of precision errors.
The maximum guaranteed precision for raw samples stored in VictoriaMetrics is 12 decimal digits.
So do not count relative changes for values if they are smaller than 1e-12 comparing to the value.

* app/vmselect/promql: properly handle possible negative results caused by float operations precision error in rollup functions like rate() or increase()
* fix test
* app/vmselect: drop `rollupDefault` function as duplicate
It is unclear why there are two identical fns `rollupDefault`
and `rollupDistinct`. Dropping one of them.

Previously the lower bound could be too small, which could result in missing values at the beginning of the graph
for default_rollup() function. This function is automatically applied to all the series selectors if they aren't
explicitly wrapped into a rollup function - see https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html#implicit-query-conversions
While at it, properly take into account `-search.minStalenessInterval` command-line flag when adjusting
the lower bound for the selected time range.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5388
`median_over_time` is handled by predefined WITH template in MetricsQL library which translates it to `quantile_over_time(0.5)`
This makes it impossble to use `median_over_time` as a usual rollup function for `aggr_over_time`.

* metricsql: support optional 2nd argument for rollup functions
Support optional 2nd argument `min`, `max` or `avg` for rollup functions:
* rollup
* rollup_delta
* rollup_deriv
* rollup_increase
* rollup_rate
* rollup_scrape_interval
If second argument is passed, then rollup function will return only the selected aggregation type.
This change can be useful for situations where only one type of rollup calculation is needed.
For example, `rollup_rate(requests_total[5m], "max")`.

Previously too short lookbehind window d for rate(m[d]) could be automatically extended
if it didn't cover at least two raw samples. This was needed in order to guarantee
non-empty results from rate(m[d]) on short time ranges.
Now the lookbehind window isn't extended if it is set explicitly,
since it is expected that the user knows what he is doing.
The lookbehind window continues to be extended when needed if it isn't set explicitly.
For example, in the case of rate(m).

The workaround was introduced to fix https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/962.
However, it didn't prove itself useful. Instead, it is recommended using `increase_pure` function.
Removing the workaround makes VM to produce accurate results when calculating
`delta` or `increase` functions over slow-changing counters with vary intervals
between data points.

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`.

* Document changes_prometheus(), increase_prometheus() and delta_prometheus() functions.
* Simplify their implementation
* Mention these functions in docs/CHANGELOG.md
The list of functions, which can adjust lookbehind window is more limited than the rest of functions,
so it is better from maintainability and readability PoV using the allowlist instead of blocklist.
It is expected that the `deriv(m[d])` returns non-empty value if the lookbehind window `d`
contains less than 2 samples in the same way as `rate()` does.
