app/{vminsert,vmselect}: follow-up after 2b7b3293c1

- Document the change at docs/CHANGELOG.md
- Set the default value for -vmstorageUserTimeout to 3 seconds. This is much better
  than the 0 value, which means that TCP connection to unreachable vmstorage could block
  for up to 16 minutes.
- Document -vmstorageUserTimeout at docs/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.md

@ -28,6 +28,7 @@ The following `tip` changes can be tested by building VictoriaMetrics components
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): add ability to set `member num` label for all the metrics scraped by a particular `vmagent` instance in [a cluster of vmagents](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html#scraping-big-number-of-targets) via `-promscrape.cluster.memberLabel` command-line flag. See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html#scraping-big-number-of-targets) and [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4247).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): do not log `unexpected EOF` when reading incoming metrics, since this error is expected and is handled during metrics' parsing. This reduces the amounts of noisy logs. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4817).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): retry failed write request on the closed connection immediately, without waiting for backoff. This should improve data delivery speed and reduce amount of error logs emitted by vmagent when using idle connections. See related [issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4139).
* FEATURE: [VictoriaMetrics cluster](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.html): reduce the maximum recovery time at `vmselect` and `vminsert` when some of `vmstorage` nodes become unavailable because of networking issues from 60 seconds to 3 seconds by default. The recovery time can be tuned at `vmselect` and `vminsert` nodes with `-vmstorageUserTimeout` command-line flag if needed. Thanks to @wjordan for [the pull request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/4423).
* FEATURE: [vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#vmui): make the warning message more noticeable for text fields. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4848).
* FEATURE: [vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#vmui): add button for auto-formatting PromQL/MetricsQL queries. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4681). Thanks to @aramattamara for the [pull request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/4694).
* FEATURE: [vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#vmui): improve accessibility score to 100 according to [Google's Lighthouse](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/lighthouse/accessibility/) tests.
