Previously indexDB.doExtDB() was returning boolean value, which was indicating whether f callback was called.
There is no need in returning this boolean value, since the f callback can determine on itself whether it was called.
This simplifies the code a bit.
While at it, document indexDB.doExtDB().
Make function name and comments more clear.

* Previously, only metricID->metricName missing index records were
tracked with deadline But it was possible a case for missing
metricID->TSID index records. IndexDB metrics fix exposed misleading
metric for such missing records.
* This commit adds check for metricID->TSID missing index records. And
delete missing metricID entry if it hit 60 second deadline.

### Describe Your Changes
Add storage metrics that count records that failed to insert:
- `RowsReceivedTotal`: the number of records that have been received by
the storage from the clients
- `RowsAddedTotal`: the number of records that have actually been
persisted. This value must be equal to `RowsReceivedTotal` if all the
records have been valid ones. But it will be smaller otherwise. The
values of the metrics below should provide the insight of why some
records hasn't been added
- `NaNValueRows`: the number of records whose value was `NaN`
- `StaleNaNValueRows`: the number of records whose value was `Stale NaN`
- `InvalidRawMetricNames`: the number of records whose raw metric name
has failed to unmarshal.
The following metrics existed before this PR and are listed here for
completeness:
- `TooSmallTimestampRows`: the number of records whose timestamp is
negative or is older than retention period
- `TooBigTimestampRows`: the number of records whose timestamp is too
far in the future.
- `HourlySeriesLimitRowsDropped`: the number of records that have not
been added because the hourly series limit has been exceeded.
- `DailySeriesLimitRowsDropped`: the number of records that have not
been added because the daily series limit has been exceeded.

This patch reverts 1fd3385
After discussing it we've come to conclusion that this is a valid
behavior which can be avoided by deleting the time series only once the
corresponding stale NaNs have been received.
On the other hand, the fix leads to lost stale NaNs in some rare but
valid use cases. For example:
- In a cluster configuration the samples for a given time series are
normally sent to the same vmstorage replica. However, wminsert may
reroute the samples to another replica because the original one is down
or is overloaded. In this case the stale NaN may end up on a replica
that has no data for that time series, but we still want to record that
sample.
Thus, reverting that fix.

Once the timeseries is in tsidCache, new entries won't be created in
per-day index because the RegisterMetricNames() code does consider
different dates for the same timeseries. So this case has been added.
The same bug exists for AddRows() but it is not manifested because the
index entries are finally created in updatePerDateData().
RegisterMetricNames also updated to increase the newTimeseriesCreated
counter because it actually creates new time series in index.
A unit tests has been added that check all possible data patterns
(different metric names and dates) and code branches in both
RegisterMetricNames and AddRows. The total number of new unit tests is
around 100 which increaded the running time of storage tests by 50%.

### Describe Your Changes
Reduced the scope of rowsAddedTotal variable from global to Storage.
This metric clearly belongs to a given Storage object as it counts the
number of records added by a given Storage instance.
Reducing the scope improves the incapsulation and allows to reset this
variable during the unit tests (i.e. every time a new Storage object is
created by a test, that object gets a new variable).

### Describe Your Changes
`Storage.AddRows()` returns an error only in one case: when
`Storage.updatePerDateData()` fails to unmarshal a `metricNameRaw`. But
the same error is treated as a warning when it happens inside
`Storage.add()` or returned by `Storage.prefillNextIndexDB()`.
This commit fixes this inconsistency by treating the error returned by
`Storage.updatePerDateData()` as a warning as well. As a result
`Storage.add()` does not need a return value anymore and so doesn't
`Storage.AddRows()`.
Additionally, this commit adds a unit test that checks all cases that
result in a row not being added to the storage.

### Describe Your Changes
Fix Date metricid cache consistency under concurrent use.
When one goroutine calls Has() and does not find the cache entry in the
immutable map it will acquire a lock and check the mutable map. And it
is possible that before that lock is acquired, the entry is moved from
the mutable map to the immutable map by another goroutine causing a
cache miss.
The fix is to check the immutable map again once the lock is acquired.

Change the return values for these functions - now they return the unmarshaled result plus
the size of the unmarshaled result in bytes, so the caller could re-slice the src for further unmarshaling.
This improves performance of these functions in hot loops of VictoriaLogs a bit.
It is incorrect applying the limit on the number of values to search without applying filters,
since the returned subset of label values may miss the label values matching the given filters.
This is a follow-up for 66630c7960
This speeds up auto-suggestion for metric names in VMUI and Grafana, which use the following query in this case:
/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={__name__=~"*.some_value.*"}
When the user types `some_value` in the query input field.
Store the deadline when the metricID entries must be deleted from indexdb
if metricID->metricName entry isn't found after the deadline. This should
make the code more clear comparing the the previous version, where the timestamp
of the first metricID->metricName lookup miss was stored in missingMetricIDs.
Remove the misleading comment about the importance of the order for creating entries
in the inverted index when registering new time series. The order doesn't matter,
since any subset of the created entries can become visible for search
before any other subset after registering in indexdb.

This should simplify code maintenance by gradually converting to atomic.* types instead of calling atomic.* functions
on int and bool types.

Previously the (date, metricID) entries for dates older than the last 2 days were removed.
This could lead to slow check for the (date, metricID) entry in the indexdb during ingesting historical data (aka backfilling).
The issue has been introduced in 431aa16c8d
This commit returns back limits for these endpoints, which have been removed at 5d66ee88bd ,
since it has been appeared that missing limits result in high CPU usage, while the introduced concurrency limiter
results in failed lightweight requests to these endpoints because of timeout when heavyweight requests are executed.

Entries for the previous dates is usually not used, so there is little sense in keeping them in memory.
This should reduce the size of storage/date_metricID cache, which can be monitored
via vm_cache_entries{type="storage/date_metricID"} metric.
This limit has little sense for these APIs, since:
- Thses APIs frequently result in scanning of all the time series on the given time range.
For example, if extra_filters={datacenter="some_dc"} .
- Users expect these APIs shouldn't hit the -search.maxUniqueTimeseries limit,
which is intended for limiting resource usage at /api/v1/query and /api/v1/query_range requests.
Also limit the concurrency for /api/v1/labels, /api/v1/label/.../values
and /api/v1/series requests in order to limit the maximum memory usage and CPU usage for these API.
This limit shouldn't affect typical use cases for these APIs:
- Grafana dashboard load when dashboard labels should be loaded
- Auto-suggestion list load when editing the query in Grafana or vmui

- Maintain a separate worker pool per each part type (in-memory, file, big and small).
Previously a shared pool was used for merging all the part types.
A single merge worker could merge parts with mixed types at once. For example,
it could merge simultaneously an in-memory part plus a big file part.
Such a merge could take hours for big file part. During the duration of this merge
the in-memory part was pinned in memory and couldn't be persisted to disk
under the configured -inmemoryDataFlushInterval .
Another common issue, which could happen when parts with mixed types are merged,
is uncontrolled growth of in-memory parts or small parts when all the merge workers
were busy with merging big files. Such growth could lead to significant performance
degradataion for queries, since every query needs to check ever growing list of parts.
This could also slow down the registration of new time series, since VictoriaMetrics
searches for the internal series_id in the indexdb for every new time series.
The third issue is graceful shutdown duration, which could be very long when a background
merge is running on in-memory parts plus big file parts. This merge couldn't be interrupted,
since it merges in-memory parts.
A separate pool of merge workers per every part type elegantly resolves both issues:
- In-memory parts are merged to file-based parts in a timely manner, since the maximum
size of in-memory parts is limited.
- Long-running merges for big parts do not block merges for in-memory parts and small parts.
- Graceful shutdown duration is now limited by the time needed for flushing in-memory parts to files.
Merging for file parts is instantly canceled on graceful shutdown now.
- Deprecate -smallMergeConcurrency command-line flag, since the new background merge algorithm
should automatically self-tune according to the number of available CPU cores.
- Deprecate -finalMergeDelay command-line flag, since it wasn't working correctly.
It is better to run forced merge when needed - https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#forced-merge
- Tune the number of shards for pending rows and items before the data goes to in-memory parts
and becomes visible for search. This improves the maximum data ingestion rate and the maximum rate
for registration of new time series. This should reduce the duration of data ingestion slowdown
in VictoriaMetrics cluster on e.g. re-routing events, when some of vmstorage nodes become temporarily
unavailable.
- Prevent from possible "sync: WaitGroup misuse" panic on graceful shutdown.

This should smooth CPU and RAM usage spikes related to these periodic tasks,
by reducing the probability that multiple concurrent periodic tasks are performed at the same time.
The dateMetricIDCache puts recently registered (date, metricID) entries into mutable cache protected by the mutex.
The dateMetricIDCache.Has() checks for the entry in the mutable cache when it isn't found in the immutable cache.
Access to the mutable cache is protected by the mutex. This means this access is slow on systems with many CPU cores.
The mutabe cache was merged into immutable cache every 10 seconds in order to avoid slow access to mutable cache.
This means that ingestion of new time series to VictoriaMetrics could result in significant slowdown for up to 10 seconds
because of bottleneck at the mutex.
Fix this by merging the mutable cache into immutable cache after len(cacheItems) / 2
cache hits under the mutex, e.g. when the entry is found in the mutable cache.
This should automatically adjust intervals between merges depending on the addition rate
for new time series (aka churn rate):
- The interval will be much smaller than 10 seconds under high churn rate.
This should reduce the mutex contention for mutable cache.
- The interval will be bigger than 10 seconds under low churn rate.
This should reduce the uneeded work on merging of mutable cache into immutable cache.
- Clarify the bugfix description at docs/CHANGELOG.md
- Simplify the code by accessing prefetchedMetricIDs struct under the lock
instead of using lockless access to immutable struct.
This shouldn't worsen code scalability too much on busy systems with many CPU cores,
since the code executed under the lock is quite small and fast.
This allows removing cloning of prefetchedMetricIDs struct every time
new metric names are pre-fetched. This should reduce load on Go GC,
since the cloning of uin64set.Set struct allocates many new objects.
Before, this cache was limited only by size.
Cache invalidation by time happens with jitter to prevent thundering herd problem.

- Document the change at docs/CHAGNELOG.md
- Move back various caches from indexDB to Storage. This makes the change less intrusive.
The dateMetricIDCache now takes into account indexDB generation, so it stores (date, metricID)
entries for both the current and the next indexDB.
- Consolidate the code responsible for idbNext pre-filling into prefillNextIndexDB() function.
This improves code readability and maintainability a bit.
- Rewrite and simplify the code responsible for calculating the next retention timestamp.
Add various tests for corner cases of this code.
- Remove indexdb pre-filling from RegisterMetricNames() function, since this function is rarely called.
It is OK to add indexdb entries on demand in this function. This simplifies the code.

Leave atomic.Value for map, since atomic.Pointer[map[...]...] makes double pointer to map,
