Revert "app/vmselect: make vmselect resilient to absence of cache folder (#5987)"
This reverts commit cb23685681.

Reason for revert: the "fix" may hide programming bugs related to incorrect creation of folders
before their use. This may complicate detecting and fixing such bugs in the future.

There are the following fixes for the issue https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5985 :
- To configure the OS to do not drop data from the system-wide temporary directory (aka /tmp).
- To run VictoriaMetrics with -cacheDataPath command-line flag, which points to the directory,
  which cannot be removed automatically by the OS.

The case when the user accidentally deletes the directory with some files created by VictoriaMetrics
shouldn't be considered as expected, so VictoriaMetrics shouldn't try resolving this case automatically.
It is much better from operation and debuggability PoV is to crash with the clear `directory doesn't exist` error
in this case.

vmselect performs the following tasks:

  • Splits incoming selects to tasks for vmstorage nodes and issues these tasks to all the vmstorage nodes in the cluster.

  • Merges responses from all the vmstorage nodes and returns a single response.

The vmui directory contains static contents built from app/vmui package with make vmui-update command. The vmui page is available at http://<vmselect>:8481/select/<accountID>/vmui/.
