6daa5f7500 lib/storage: prioritize data ingestion over heavy queries
Heavy queries could result in the lack of CPU resources for processing the current data ingestion stream.
Prevent this by delaying queries' execution until free resources are available for data ingestion.

Expose `vm_search_delays_total` metric, which may be used in for alerting when there is no enough CPU resources
for data ingestion and/or for executing heavy queries.

deployment/docker: replace Prometheus with vmagent (#589)
vmagent replaces Prometheus to perform scrapes and writes
into VictoriaMetrics installation. Prometheus datasource was
dropped, but its config was reused to feed vmagent.

Change also contains simplification in dashboard propagation
to Grafana container by removing excessive json manipulation
steps.
