Previous commit 201fd6de1e removed
trailing space trim from data read from file. But common practice is to
remove such trailing space. And it leaded to the authorization errors
for the major group of users.
In first place, this change must help to mitigate an issue with
kubernetes. When authorization information was read from Secret content.
Changes to the operator was made to mitigate such problem at commit
1cf64358c8
We could introduce later optional flag for VictoriaMetrics to disable
trim space behavior.

### Describe Your Changes
Trimming content which is loaded from an external pass leads to obscure
issues in case user-defined input contained trimmed chars. For example.
user-defined password "foo\n" will become "foo" while user will expect
it to contain a new line.
---
For example, a user defines a password which ends with `\n`. This often
happens when user Kubernetes secrets and manually encodes value as
base64-encoded string.
In this case vmauth configuration might look like:
```
users:
- url_prefix:
- http://vminsert:8480/insert/0/prometheus/api/v1/write
name: foo
username: foo
password: "foobar\n"
```
vmagent configuration for this setup will use the following flags:
```
-remoteWrite.url=http://vmauth:8427/
-remoteWrite.basicAuth.passwordFile=/tmp/vmagent-password
-remoteWrite.basicAuth.username="foo"
```
Where `/tmp/vmagent-password` is a file with `foobar\n` password.
Before this change such configuration will result in `401 Unauthorized`
response received by vmagent since after file content will become
`foobar`.
---
An example with Kubernetes operator which uses a secret to reference the
same password in multiple configurations.
<details>
<summary>See full manifests</summary>
`Secret`:
```
apiVersion: v1
data:
name: Zm9v # foo
password: Zm9vYmFy # foobar\n
username: Zm9v= # foo
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: vmuser
```
`VMUser`:
```
apiVersion: operator.victoriametrics.com/v1beta1
kind: VMUser
metadata:
name: vmagents
spec:
generatePassword: false
name: vmagents
targetRefs:
- crd:
kind: VMAgent
name: some-other-agent
namespace: example
username: foo
# note - the secret above is referenced to provide password
passwordRef:
name: vmagent
key: password
```
`VMAgent`:
```
apiVersion: operator.victoriametrics.com/v1beta1
kind: VMAgent
metadata:
name: example
spec:
selectAllByDefault: true
scrapeInterval: 5s
replicaCount: 1
remoteWrite:
- url: "http://vmauth-vmauth-example:8427/api/v1/write"
# note - the secret above is referenced as well
basicAuth:
username:
name: vmagent
key: username
password:
name: vmagent
key: password
```
</details>
Since both config target exactly the same `Secret` object it is expected
to work, but apparently the result will be `401 Unauthrized` error.

The new flag type is supposed to be used for specifying URL values which
could contain sensitive information such as auth tokens in GET params or
HTTP basic authentication.
The URL flag also allows loading its value from files if `file://`
prefix is specified. As example, the new flag type was used in
app/vmbackup as it requires specifying `authKey` param for making the
snapshot.

For example, -fooDuration=',10s,' is now supported - it sets three command-line flag values:
- the first and the last one are set to the default value for `-fooDuration`
- the second one is set to 10s
Examples:
1) -metricsAuthKey=file:///abs/path/to/file - reads flag value from the given absolute filepath
2) -metricsAuthKey=file://./relative/path/to/file - reads flag value from the given relative filepath
3) -metricsAuthKey=http://some-host/some/path?query_arg=abc - reads flag value from the given url
The flag value is automatically updated when the file contents changes.
The user may which to control the endpoint parameters for instance to
set the audience when requesting an access token. Exposing the
parameters as a map allows for additional use cases without requiring
modification.
* Introduce flagutil.Duration
To avoid conversion bugs
* Fix tests
* Clarify documentation re. month=31 days
* Add fasttime.UnixTime() to obtain time.Time
The goal is to refactor out the last usage of `.Msecs`.
* Use fasttime for time.Now()
* wip
- Remove fasttime.UnixTime(), since it doesn't improve code readability and maintainability
- Run `make docs-sync` for syncing changes from README.md to docs/ folder
- Make lib/flagutil.Duration.Msec private
- Rename msecsPerMonth const to msecsPer31Days in order to be consistent with retention31Days

This fixes handling of values bigger than 2GiB for the following command-line flags:
- -storage.minFreeDiskSpaceBytes
- -remoteWrite.maxDiskUsagePerURL
* adds ArrayDuration and ArrayBool flags,
makes sendTimeout and tlsInsecure configurable per remoteWrite url
* added backward compatibility testcases for ArrayDuration and ArrayBool
* fixes bool flag
* fixes test cases
Arch 386 is a 32-bit architecture and interprets int type for numbers as an explicit int32,
whereas on most modern CPUs int is implicitly an int64. This makes tests to fail with
`int overflow` error.
Array type flag is now defined as `value` type in flag description when printed.
This change adds additional description to every Array type flag so it would be
clear what exact type is used:
```
-remoteWrite.urlRelabelConfig array
Optional path to relabel config for the corresponding -remoteWrite.url
Supports array of values separated by comma or specified via multiple flags.
```
