Now the following queries are equivalents:
_time:5s | sort by (_time)
_time:5s | order by (_time)
This is needed for convenience, since `order by` is commonly used in other query languages such as SQL.
Use local timezone of the host server in this case. The timezone can be overridden
with TZ environment variable if needed.
While at it, allow using whitespace instead of T as a delimiter between data and time
in the ingested _time field. For example, '2024-09-20 10:20:30' is now accepted
during data ingestion. This is valid ISO8601 format, which is used by some log shippers,
so it should be supported. This format is also known as SQL datetime format.
Also assume local time zone when time without timezone information is passed to querying APIs.
Previously such a time was parsed in UTC timezone. Add `Z` to the end of the time string
if the old behaviour is preferred.

Previously the original timestamp was used in the copied query, so _time:duration filters
were applied to the original time range: (timestamp-duration ... timestamp]. This resulted
in stopped live tailing, since new logs have timestamps bigger than the original time range.

This pipe is useful for debugging purposes when the number of processed blocks must be calculated for the given query:
<query> | blocks_count
This helps detecting the root cause of query performance slowdown in cases like https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/7070
Previously the query could return incorrect results, since the query timestamp was updated with every Query.Clone() call
during iterative search for the time range with up to limit=N rows.
While at it, optimize queries, which find low number of matching logs, while spend a lot of CPU time for searching
across big number of logs. The optimization reduces the upper bound of the time range to search if the current time range
contains zero matching rows.

The following syntax is supported: _time:filter offset off
For example:
- _time:5m offset 1h - 5-minute duration one hour before the current time
- _time:2023 offset 2w - 2023 year with the 2 weeks offset in the past
