app/vmselect: expose vm_memory_intensive_queries_total counter metric (#5208)
The new metric gets increased each time `-search.logQueryMemoryUsage` memory limit
is exceeded by a query. This metric should help to identify expensive and heavy queries
without inspecting the logs.

support `Strict-Transport-Security`, `Content-Security-Policy` and `X-Frame-Options`
HTTP headers in all VictoriaMetrics components.
The values for headers can be specified by users via the following flags:
`-http.header.hsts`, `-http.header.csp` and `-http.header.frameOptions`.

docs: use https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/latest instead of https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases link where needed
The https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases link may show non-latest
releases at the top, such as LTS releases or VictoriaLogs releases.
So it is better to use https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/latest link,
which always redirect to the latest available release of VictoriaMetrics.

app/vmselect: limit the number of parallel workers by 32 (#5195)
* app/vmselect: limit the number of parallel workers by 32

The change should improve performance and memory usage during query processing
on machines with big number of CPU cores. The number of parallel workers for
query processing is controlled via `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery` command-line flag.
By default, the number of workers is limited by the number of available CPU cores,
but not more than 32. The limit can be increased via `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery`.

Signed-off-by: hagen1778 <roman@victoriametrics.com>

* wip

- The `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery` command-line flag doesn't limit resource usage,
  so move it from the `resource usage limits` to `troubleshooting` chapter at docs/Single-server-VictoriaMetrics.md

- Make more clear the description for the `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery` command-line flag

- Add the description of `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery` to docs/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.md

- Limit the maximum value, which can be passed to `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery`, to GOMAXPROCS,
  because bigger values may worsen query performance and increase CPU usage

- Improve the the description of the change at docs/CHANGELOG.md. Mark it as FEATURE instead of BUGFIX,
  since it is closer to a feature than to a bugfix.

app/{vmagent,vminsert}: follow-up for NewRelic data ingestion protocol support
This is a follow-up for f60c08a7bd

Changes:

- Make sure all the urls related to NewRelic protocol start from /newrelic . Previously some urls were started from /api/v1/newrelic

- Remove /api/v1 part from NewRelic urls, since it has no sense

- Remove automatic transformation from CamelCase to snake_case for NewRelic labels and metric names,
  since it may complicate the transition from NewRelic to VictoriaMetrics. Preserve all the metric names and label names,
  so users could query metrics and labels by the same names which are used in NewRelic.
  The automatic transformation from CamelCase to snake_case can be added later as a special action for relabeling rules if needed.

- Properly update per-tenant data ingestion stats at app/vmagent/newrelic/request_handler.go . Previously it was always zero.

- Fix NewRelic urls in vmagent when multitenant data ingestion is enabled. Previously they were mistakenly started from `/`.

- Document NewRelic data ingestion url at docs/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.md

- Remove superflouos memory allocations at lib/protoparser/newrelic

- Improve tests at lib/protoparser/newrelic/*

lib/license: cleanups and prettifications for log messages and docs related to licensing
- Make more clear the docs at docs/enterprise.md, so readers could figure out faster
  on how to obtain enterprise key and how to pass it to VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components.

- Fix examples at docs/enterprise.md, which were referring to non-existing `-license-file` command-line flag.
  The `-licenseFile` command-line flag must be used instead.

- Improve the description of `-license*` command-line flags, so users could understand
  faster how to use them.

- Improve the warning message, which is emitted when the deprecated -eula command-line flag is passed,
  so the user could figure out how to switch faster to -license* command-line flags.

- Disallow running VictoriaMetrics components with both -license and -licenseFile command-line flags.

- Disallow running VictoriaMetrics components when -licensFile points to an empty file.

- Consistently use the phrase "This flag is available only in Enterprise binaries" across
  all the enterprise-specific command-line flags.

- Remove unneeded level of indirection for `noLicenseMessage` and `expiredMessage` string contants
  in order to improve code readability and maintainability.

- Remove unneded `return` statements after `logger.Fatalf()` calls, since these calls exit the app and never return.

- Make sure that the info log message about successful license verification is emitted
  when the license is verified successfully. Previously the error message could be logged
  when the license payload is invalid or if it misses some required features.

- Remove support for JSON parsing, since it is too fragile and is rarely used in practice.
  The most clients send OpenTelemetry metrics in protobuf.
  The JSON parser can be added in the future if needed.
- Remove unused code from lib/protoparser/opentelemetry/pb and lib/protoparser/opentelemetry/proto
- Do not re-use protobuf message between ParseStream() calls, since there is high chance
  of high fragmentation of the re-used message because of too complex nested structure of the message.

app/vmselect/netstorage: follow-up after 173ccf4333
- Clarify docs about -replicationFactor command-line flag at vmselect
- Clarify description for -replicationFactor and -search.skipSlowReplicas command-line flags
- Fix the logic for returning responses if -search.skipSlowReplicas command-line flag
  is enabled. The logic was broken in the 173ccf4333,
  so it could return responses only if some of vmstorage nodes return error,
  while it should return when query results are successfully collected from more than
  (len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor) vmstorage nodes.

vmselect: introduce search.skipSlowReplicas cmd-line flag (#4538)
* vmselect: introduce `search.skipSlowReplicas` cmd-line flag

vmselect has two logical conditions during request processing when
`-replicationFactor` cmd-line flag is set:
1. If at least `len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor` responded, it could skip
waiting for the rest of nodes to respond. This could lead to problems described
here https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1207.
2. Mark response as partial if less than `len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor` responded
without an error.

The P1 showed itself error-prone and became the main reason why
`-replicationFactor` wasn't recommended to use at vmselect level.
However, this optimization could be still very useful in situations
when there are slow and fast replicas in cluster.

But P2 remains viable and important conditionless.
Hiding P1 behind the feature-flag `search.skipSlowReplicas`
should make `-replicationFactor` flag usable again. And let users
choose whether they want P1 to be respected.

app/vmstorage: deprecate -bigMergeConcurrency command-line flag
Improperly configured -bigMergeConcurrency command-line flag usually leads to uncontrolled

So it is better deprecating this flag. In rare cases -smallMergeConcurrency command-line flag

Checking for deadline between iterations supposed to reduce
probability of exceeding `search.maxQueryDuration`.

The change also adds a new trace record, which captures the time
spent in aggregation function. Before that, the trace for aggr funcs
could be confusing since it doesn't account for all the places where
time was spent.
