* lib/storage/downsampling: update log messages for final dedup

Properly specify a reason of re-running deduplication for partition.

Signed-off-by: Zakhar Bessarab <z.bessarab@victoriametrics.com>

* lib/storage: consistently use MaxTimestamp to determine deduplication/downsampling rules

Using MinTimestamp leads to applying downsampling to parts which are only partially covered by downsampling rule.
For example, partition covers range [1000-2000]. At t=2100 and rule offset 500 data with t=2100-500 => 1600 must be downsampled. The range check against MinTimestamp evaluates to true even though partition contains range which must not be downsampled - [1600:2000].

* Follow-up

- Apply the first matching downsampling period if multiple filters match the given time series.
  This allows fine-tuning the downsampling config for the specific needs.
- Take into account downsampling filters during search queries.
- Reduce the difference between community and enterprise branches. This should simplify further maintenance of these branches.
- Properly parse series filters with colons inside them.
- Document the feature at docs/CHANGELOG.md.

## Downsampling ## Downsampling
[VictoriaMetrics Enterprise](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise.html) supports multi-level downsampling with `-downsampling.period` command-line flag. For example: [VictoriaMetrics Enterprise](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise.html) supports multi-level downsampling via `-downsampling.period=offset:interval` command-line flag.
This command-line flag instructs leaving the last sample per each `interval` for [time series](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#time-series)
[samples](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#raw-samples) older than the `offset`. For example, `-downsampling.period=30d:5m` instructs leaving the last sample
per each 5-minute interval for samples older than 30 days, while the rest of samples aren't downsampled.
* `-downsampling.period=30d:5m` instructs VictoriaMetrics to [deduplicate](#deduplication) samples older than 30 days with 5 minutes interval. The `-downsampling.period` command-line flag can be specified multiple times in order to apply different downsampling levels for different time ranges (aka multi-level downsampling).
For example, `-downsampling.period=30d:5m,180d:1h` instructs leaving the last sample per each 5-minute interval for samples older than 30 days,
while leaving the last sample per each 1-hour interval for samples older than 180 days.
* `-downsampling.period=30d:5m,180d:1h` instructs VictoriaMetrics to deduplicate samples older than 30 days with 5 minutes interval and to deduplicate samples older than 180 days with 1 hour interval. VictoriaMetrics supports configuring independent downsampling per different sets of [time series](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#time-series)
via `-downsampling.period=filter:offset:interval` syntax. In this case the given `offset:interval` downsampling is applied only to time series matching the given `filter`.
The `filter` can contain arbitrary [series filter](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyConcepts.html#filtering).
For example, `-downsampling.period='{__name__=~"(node|process)_.*"}:1d:1m` instructs VictoriaMetrics to deduplicate samples older than one day with one minute interval
only for [time series](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#time-series) with names starting with `node_` or `process_` prefixes.
The de-duplication for other time series can be configured independently via additional `-downsampling.period` command-line flags.
If the time series doesn't match any `filter`, then it isn't downsampled. If the time series matches multiple filters, then the downsampling
for the first matching `filter` is applied. For example, `-downsampling.period='{env="prod"}:1d:30s,{__name__=~"node_.*"}:1d:5m'` de-duplicates
samples older than one day with 30 seconds interval across all the time series with `env="prod"` [label](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#labels),
even if their names start with `node_` prefix. All the other time series with names starting with `node_` prefix are de-duplicated with 5 minutes interval.
If downsampling shouldn't be applied to some time series matching the given `filter`, then pass `-downsampling.period=filter:0s:0s` command-line flag to VictoriaMetrics.
For example, if series with `env="prod"` label shouldn't be downsampled, then pass `-downsampling.period='{env="prod"}:0s:0s'` command-line flag in front of other `-downsampling.period` flags.
Downsampling is applied independently per each time series and leaves a single [raw sample](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyConcepts.html#raw-samples) Downsampling is applied independently per each time series and leaves a single [raw sample](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyConcepts.html#raw-samples)

## Downsampling ## Downsampling
[VictoriaMetrics Enterprise](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise.html) supports multi-level downsampling with `-downsampling.period` command-line flag. For example: [VictoriaMetrics Enterprise](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise.html) supports multi-level downsampling via `-downsampling.period=offset:interval` command-line flag.
This command-line flag instructs leaving the last sample per each `interval` for [time series](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#time-series)
[samples](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#raw-samples) older than the `offset`. For example, `-downsampling.period=30d:5m` instructs leaving the last sample
per each 5-minute interval for samples older than 30 days, while the rest of samples aren't downsampled.
* `-downsampling.period=30d:5m` instructs VictoriaMetrics to [deduplicate](#deduplication) samples older than 30 days with 5 minutes interval. The `-downsampling.period` command-line flag can be specified multiple times in order to apply different downsampling levels for different time ranges (aka multi-level downsampling).
For example, `-downsampling.period=30d:5m,180d:1h` instructs leaving the last sample per each 5-minute interval for samples older than 30 days,
while leaving the last sample per each 1-hour interval for samples older than 180 days.
* `-downsampling.period=30d:5m,180d:1h` instructs VictoriaMetrics to deduplicate samples older than 30 days with 5 minutes interval and to deduplicate samples older than 180 days with 1 hour interval. VictoriaMetrics supports configuring independent downsampling per different sets of [time series](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#time-series)
via `-downsampling.period=filter:offset:interval` syntax. In this case the given `offset:interval` downsampling is applied only to time series matching the given `filter`.
The `filter` can contain arbitrary [series filter](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyConcepts.html#filtering).
For example, `-downsampling.period='{__name__=~"(node|process)_.*"}:1d:1m` instructs VictoriaMetrics to deduplicate samples older than one day with one minute interval
only for [time series](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#time-series) with names starting with `node_` or `process_` prefixes.
The de-duplication for other time series can be configured independently via additional `-downsampling.period` command-line flags.
If the time series doesn't match any `filter`, then it isn't downsampled. If the time series matches multiple filters, then the downsampling
for the first matching `filter` is applied. For example, `-downsampling.period='{env="prod"}:1d:30s,{__name__=~"node_.*"}:1d:5m'` de-duplicates
samples older than one day with 30 seconds interval across all the time series with `env="prod"` [label](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#labels),
even if their names start with `node_` prefix. All the other time series with names starting with `node_` prefix are de-duplicated with 5 minutes interval.
If downsampling shouldn't be applied to some time series matching the given `filter`, then pass `-downsampling.period=filter:0s:0s` command-line flag to VictoriaMetrics.
For example, if series with `env="prod"` label shouldn't be downsampled, then pass `-downsampling.period='{env="prod"}:0s:0s'` command-line flag in front of other `-downsampling.period` flags.
