Rule files may contain %{ENV_VAR} placeholders, which are substituted by the corresponding env vars.

Enterprise version of vmalert supports S3 and GCS paths to rules.
For example: gs://bucket/path/to/rules, s3://bucket/path/to/rules
S3 and GCS paths support only matching by prefix, e.g. s3://bucket/dir/rule_ matches
all files with prefix rule_ in folder dir.
