VictoriaMetrics stores sparse index inmemory.
* Reduce disk space usage for indexdb.
* Prevent possible indexDB items drops.
* It may trigger slow insert and new timeseries registration due to

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.

Signed-off-by: Zakhar Bessarab <z.bessarab@victoriametrics.com>
* 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.

* lib/storage: adds metrics for downsampling
vm_downsampling_partitions_scheduled - shows the number of parts, that must be downsampled
vm_downsampling_partitions_scheduled_size_bytes - shows total size in bytes for parts, the must be donwsampled
These two metrics answer the questions - is downsampling running? how many parts scheduled for downsampling and how many of them currently downsampled? Storage space that it occupies.

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 is a follow-up for 2d31fd7855
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.

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.
The pooled rawRowsBlock objects occupies big amounts of memory between flushes,
and the flushes are relatively rare. So it is better to don't use the pool
and to allocate rawRow blocks on demand. This should reduce the average
memory usage between flushes.
The buffer can be quite big under high ingestion rate (e.g. more than 100MB).
This leads to increased memory usage between buffer flushes.
So it is better to re-create the buffer on every flush in order to reduce memory usage
between buffer flushes.
Instead, log a sample of these long items once per 5 seconds into error log,
so users could notice and fix the issue with too long labels or too many labels.
Previously this panic could occur in production when ingesting samples with too long labels.
This allows removing importing unneeded command-line flags into binaries, which import lib/storage,
which, in turn, was importing lib/snapshot in order to use Time, Validate and NewName functions.
