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.
Each Grafana dashboard has unique ID which can be used to fetch the dashboard
from grafana.com: https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/11176
The same dashboard can be accessed via URL with slug: https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/11176-victoriametrics-cluster/
But using slug implies that any change to dashboard name will break the link.
So it is better to just use ID, so the dashboard URL will never break.

Tests showed that importing a single line with 70MB size takes 5.3GiB
RSS memory for VictoriaMetrics single-node.
In the scenario when user exports and imports data from one VM to another,
it could possibly lead to OOM exception for destination VM.
Importing a single line with 16MB size taks 1.3GiB RSS memory.
Hence, the limit for `import.maxLineLen` was decreased from 100MB to 10MB
to improve reliability of VictoriaMetrics during imports.

Previously entries which were accessed only 1 time weren't cached.
It has been appeared that some rarely executed heavy queries may read indexdb block twice
in a row instead of once. There is no need in caching such a block then.
This change should eliminate cache size spikes for indexdb/dataBlocks when such heavy queries are executed.
Expose -blockcache.missesBeforeCaching command-line flag, which can be used for fine-tuning
the number of cache misses needed before storing the block in the caching.
The SECURITY label should be applied only to changes, which fix security issues.
The change at ad839aa492 adds new command-line flags, which can be used
for improving security in some cases. They do not fix any security issues.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5111
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`.

* 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`.

* 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.

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/*
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3520
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/4712
- 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.
