Previously, some extIndexDB metrics were not registered. It resulted
into missing metrics, if metric value was added to the extIndexDB. It's
a usual case for search requests at both indexes.
Current commit updates all metrics from extIndexDB according to the
current IndexDB. It must fix such cases

`TL;DR` This PR improves the metric IDs search in IndexDB:
- Avoid seaching for metric IDs twice when `maxMetrics` limit is
exceeded
- Use correct error type for indicating that the `maxMetrics` limit is
exceded
- Simplify the logic of deciding between per-day and global index search
A unit test has been added to ensure that this refactoring does not
break anything.
---
Function calls before the fix:
```
idb.searchMetricIDs
|__ is.searchMetricIDs
|__ is.searchMetricIDsInternal
|__ is.updateMetricIDsForTagFilters
|__ is.tryUpdatingMetricIDsForDateRange
| |
|__ is.getMetricIDsForDateAndFilters
```
- `searchMetricIDsInternal` searches metric IDs for each filter set. It
maintains a metric ID set variable which is updated every time the
`updateMetricIDsForTagFilters` function is called. After each successful
call, the function checks the length of the updated metric ID set and if
it is greater than `maxMetrics`, the function returns `too many
timeseries` error.
- `updateMetricIDsForTagFilters` uses either per-day or global index to
search metric IDs for the given filter set. The decision of which index
to use is made is made within the `tryUpdatingMetricIDsForDateRange`
function and if it returns `fallback to global search` error then the
function uses global index by calling `getMetricIDsForDateAndFilters`
with zero date.
- `tryUpdatingMetricIDsForDateRange` first checks if the given time
range is larger than 40 days and if so returns `fallback to global
search` error. Otherwise it proceeds to searching for metric IDs within
that time range by calling `getMetricIDsForDateAndFilters` for each
date.
- `getMetricIDsForDateAndFilters` searches for metric IDs for the given
date and returns `fallback to global search` error if the number of
found metric IDs is greater than `maxMetrics`.
Problems with this solution:
1. The `fallback to global search` error returned by
`getMetricIDsForDateAndFilters` in case when maxMetrics is exceeded is
misleading.
2. If `tryUpdatingMetricIDsForDateRange` proceeds to date range search
and returns `fallback to global search` error (because
`getMetricIDsForDateAndFilters` returns it) then this will trigger
global search in `updateMetricIDsForTagFilters`. However the global
search uses the same maxMetrics value which means this search is
destined to fail too. I.e. the same search is performed twice and fails
twice.
3. `too many timeseries` error is already handled in
`searchMetricIDsInternal` and therefore handing this error in
`updateMetricIDsForTagFilters` is redundant
4. updateMetricIDsForTagFilters is a better place to make a decision on
whether to use per-day or global index.
Solution:
1. Use a dedicated error for `too many timeseries` case
2. Handle `too many timeseries` error in `searchMetricIDsInternal` only
3. Move the per-day or global search decision from
`tryUpdatingMetricIDsForDateRange` to `updateMetricIDsForTagFilters` and
remove `fallback to global search` error.

Once the timeseries is in tsidCache, new entries won't be created in
per-day index because the RegisterMetricNames() code does consider
different dates for the same timeseries. So this case has been added.
The same bug exists for AddRows() but it is not manifested because the
index entries are finally created in updatePerDateData().
RegisterMetricNames also updated to increase the newTimeseriesCreated
counter because it actually creates new time series in index.
A unit tests has been added that check all possible data patterns
(different metric names and dates) and code branches in both
RegisterMetricNames and AddRows. The total number of new unit tests is
around 100 which increaded the running time of storage tests by 50%.

### Describe Your Changes
Reduced the scope of rowsAddedTotal variable from global to Storage.
This metric clearly belongs to a given Storage object as it counts the
number of records added by a given Storage instance.
Reducing the scope improves the incapsulation and allows to reset this
variable during the unit tests (i.e. every time a new Storage object is
created by a test, that object gets a new variable).

This reverts commit e280d90e9a.
Reason for revert: the updated code doesn't improve the performance of table.MustAddRows for the typical case
when rows contain timestamps belonging to ptws[0].
The performance may be improved in theory for the case when all the rows belong to partiton other than ptws[0],
but this partition is automatically moved to ptws[0] by the code at lines
6aad1d43e9/lib/storage/table.go (L287-L298) ,
so the next time the typical case will work.
Also the updated code makes the code harder to follow, since it introduces an additional level of indirection
with non-trivial semantics inside table.MustAddRows - the partition.TimeRangeInPartition() function.
This function needs to be inspected and understood when reading the code at table.MustAddRows().
This function depends on minTsInRows and maxTsInRows vars, which are defined and initialized
many lines above the partition.TimeRangeInPartition() call. This complicates reading and understanding
the code even more.
The previous code was using clearer loop over rows with the clear call to partition.HasTimestamp()
for every timestamp in the row. The partition.HasTimestamp() call is used in the table.MustAddRows()
function multiple times. This makes the use of partition.HasTimestamp() call more consistent,
easier to understand and easier to maintain comparing to the mix of partition.HasTimestamp() and partition.TimeRangeInPartition()
calls.
Aslo, there is no need in documenting some hardcore software engineering refactoring at docs/CHANGLELOG.md,
since the docs/CHANGELOG.md is intended for VictoriaMetrics users, who may not know software engineering.
The docs/CHANGELOG.md must document user-visible changes, and the docs must be concise and clear for VictoriaMetrics users.

### Describe Your Changes
The original logic is not only highly complex but also poorly readable,
so it can be modified to increase readability and reduce time
complexity.

### Describe Your Changes
`Storage.AddRows()` returns an error only in one case: when
`Storage.updatePerDateData()` fails to unmarshal a `metricNameRaw`. But
the same error is treated as a warning when it happens inside
`Storage.add()` or returned by `Storage.prefillNextIndexDB()`.
This commit fixes this inconsistency by treating the error returned by
`Storage.updatePerDateData()` as a warning as well. As a result
`Storage.add()` does not need a return value anymore and so doesn't
`Storage.AddRows()`.
Additionally, this commit adds a unit test that checks all cases that
result in a row not being added to the storage.

Pending rows and items unconditionally remain in memory for up to pending{Items,Rows}FlushInterval,
so there is no any sense in setting dataFlushInterval (the interval for guaranteed flush of in-memory data to disk)
to values smaller than pending{Items,Rows}FlushInterval, since this doesn't affect the interval
for flushing pending rows and items from memory to disk.

'any' type is supported starting from Go1.18. Let's consistently use it
instead of 'interface{}' type across the code base, since `any` is easier to read than 'interface{}'.
### Describe Your Changes
Fix Date metricid cache consistency under concurrent use.
When one goroutine calls Has() and does not find the cache entry in the
immutable map it will acquire a lock and check the mutable map. And it
is possible that before that lock is acquired, the entry is moved from
the mutable map to the immutable map by another goroutine causing a
cache miss.
The fix is to check the immutable map again once the lock is acquired.

Change the return values for these functions - now they return the unmarshaled result plus
the size of the unmarshaled result in bytes, so the caller could re-slice the src for further unmarshaling.
This improves performance of these functions in hot loops of VictoriaLogs a bit.
It is incorrect applying the limit on the number of values to search without applying filters,
since the returned subset of label values may miss the label values matching the given filters.
This is a follow-up for 66630c7960
This speeds up auto-suggestion for metric names in VMUI and Grafana, which use the following query in this case:
/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={__name__=~"*.some_value.*"}
When the user types `some_value` in the query input field.
This should improve debuggability of unexpected deletion of directories inside partitions.
While at it, log the proper path to parts.json when the directory for big part is missing in the partition.
parts.json is located inside directory with small parts, and there is no parts.json file inside directory with big parts.

* 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.

Store the deadline when the metricID entries must be deleted from indexdb
if metricID->metricName entry isn't found after the deadline. This should
make the code more clear comparing the the previous version, where the timestamp
of the first metricID->metricName lookup miss was stored in missingMetricIDs.
Remove the misleading comment about the importance of the order for creating entries
in the inverted index when registering new time series. The order doesn't matter,
since any subset of the created entries can become visible for search
before any other subset after registering in indexdb.

This makes the code less fragile - it is harder to skip the convertToCompositeTagFilterss() call now.
While at it, call indexSearch.containsTimeRange() inside indexSearch.searchMetricIDsInternal()
in order to quickly terminate search of time series in the old indexdb for new time ranges.

This should simplify code maintenance by gradually converting to atomic.* types instead of calling atomic.* functions
on int and bool types.
See ea9e2b19a5
The issue has been introduced in bace9a2501
The improper fix was in the d4c0615dcd ,
since it fixed the issue just by an accident, because Go comiler aligned the rawRowsShards field
by 4-byte boundary inside partition struct.
The proper fix is to use atomic.Int64 field - this guarantees that the access to this field
won't result in unaligned 64-bit atomic operation. See https://github.com/golang/go/issues/50860
and https://github.com/golang/go/issues/19057
Previously the (date, metricID) entries for dates older than the last 2 days were removed.
This could lead to slow check for the (date, metricID) entry in the indexdb during ingesting historical data (aka backfilling).
The issue has been introduced in 431aa16c8d
This commit returns back limits for these endpoints, which have been removed at 5d66ee88bd ,
since it has been appeared that missing limits result in high CPU usage, while the introduced concurrency limiter
results in failed lightweight requests to these endpoints because of timeout when heavyweight requests are executed.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5055
Do not convert shard items to part when a shard becomes full. Instead, collect multiple
full shards and then convert them to a searchable part at once. This reduces
the number of searchable parts, which, in turn, should increase query performance,
since queries need to scan smaller number of parts.
Previously the interval between item addition and its conversion to searchable in-memory part
could vary significantly because of too coarse per-second precision. Switch from fasttime.UnixTimestamp()
to time.Now().UnixMilli() for millisecond precision. It is OK to use time.Now() for tracking
the time when buffered items must be converted to searchable in-memory parts, since time.Now()
calls aren't located in hot paths.
Increase the flush interval for converting buffered samples to searchable in-memory parts
from one second to two seconds. This should reduce the number of blocks, which are needed
to be processed during high-frequency alerting queries. This, in turn, should reduce CPU usage.
While at it, hardcode the maximum size of rawRows shard to 8Mb, since this size gives the optimal
data ingestion pefromance according to load tests. This reduces memory usage and CPU usage on systems
with big amounts of RAM under high data ingestion rate.
