all: add -inmemoryDataFlushInterval
command-line flag for controlling the frequency of saving in-memory data to disk
...
The main purpose of this command-line flag is to increase the lifetime of low-end flash storage
with the limited number of write operations it can perform. Such flash storage is usually
installed on Raspberry PI or similar appliances.
For example, `-inmemoryDataFlushInterval=1h` reduces the frequency of disk write operations
to up to once per hour if the ingested one-hour worth of data fits the limit for in-memory data.
The in-memory data is searchable in the same way as the data stored on disk.
VictoriaMetrics automatically flushes the in-memory data to disk on graceful shutdown via SIGINT signal.
The in-memory data is lost on unclean shutdown (hardware power loss, OOM crash, SIGKILL).

lib/{mergeset,storage}: reduce the number of fsync calls on data ingestion path on systems with many cpu cores
...
VictoriaMetrics maintains a buffer per CPU core for the ingested data. These buffers are flushed to disk every second.
These buffers are flushed to disk in parallel starting from the commit 56b6b893ce
.
This resulted in increased write disk IO usage on systems with many cpu cores
as described at https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1338#issuecomment-863046999 .
This commit merges the per-CPU buffers into bigger in-memory buffers before flushing them to disk.
This should reduce the rate of fsync syscalls and, consequently, the write disk IO on systems with many CPU cores.
This should help https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1338

The prioritizing could lead to big merge starvation, which could end up in too big number of parts that must be merged into big parts.
Multiple big merges may be initiated after the migration from v1.39.0 or v1.39.1. It is OK - these merges should be finished soon,
which should return CPU and disk IO usage to normal levels.
