This guarantees that the snapshot contains all the recently added data
from inmemory buffers when multiple concurrent calls to Storage.CreateSnapshot are performed.
`runTransactions` call issues async deletions for transaction files. The previously issued transaction deletions
can race with the next call to `runTransactions`. Prevent this by waiting until all the pending transaction
deletions are funished in the beginning of `runTransactions`. Also make sure that all the pending transaction
deletions are finished before returning from `runTransactions`.
This should fix the issue on NFS when incompletely removed dirs may be left
after unclean shutdown (OOM, kill -9, hard reset, etc.), while the corresponding transaction
files are already removed.

The metricID->metricName entry can be missing in the indexdb after unclean shutdown
when only a part of entries for new time series is written into indexdb.
Recover from such a situation by removing the broken metricID. New metricID
will be automatically created for time series with the given metricName
when new data point will arive to it.
See the corresponding benchmark in Prometheus - 23c0299d85/tsdb/head_bench_test.go (L52)
The benchmark allows performing apples-to-apples comparison of time series search
in Prometheus and VictoriaMetrics. The following article - https://www.robustperception.io/evaluating-performance-and-correctness -
contains incorrect numbers for VictoriaMetrics, since there wasn't this benchmark yet. Fix this.
Benchmarks can be repeated with the following commands from Prometheus and VictoriaMetrics source code roots:
- Prometheus: GOMAXPROCS=1 go test ./tsdb/ -run=111 -bench=BenchmarkHeadPostingForMatchers
- VictoriaMetrics: GOMAXPROCS=1 go test ./lib/storage/ -run=111 -bench=BenchmarkHeadPostingForMatchers

The first column (old) is for Prometheus, the second column (new) is for VictoriaMetrics.
As you can see, VictoriaMetrics outperforms Prometheus by more than 100x in almost all the test cases of this benchmark.
Prometheus was using 3.5GB of RAM during the benchmark, while VictoriaMetrics was using 400MB of RAM.
The current day could miss entries for already stopped time series before
enabling per-day index.
This fixes the issue when queries return empty results during the first hour after
upgrading to v1.29.*
Production workload shows that the index requires ~4Kb of RAM per active time series.
This is too much for high number of active time series, so let's delete this index.
Now the queries should fall back to the index for the current day instead of the index
for the recent hour. The query performance for the current day index should be good enough
given the 100M rows/sec scan speed per CPU core.
Issues fixed:
- Slow startup times. Now the index is loaded from cache during start.
- High memory usage related to superflouos index copies every 10 seconds.
Production load with >10M active time series showed it could
slow down VictoriaMetrics startup times and could eat
all the memory leading to OOM.
Remove inmemory inverted index for recent hours until thorough
testing on production data shows it works OK.
