When using `vmalert` with older Prometheus versions, the passed
`step=2m` may be parsed by Prometheus with an err: "cannot parse \"2m0s\" to a valid duration".
In order to improve compatibility vmalert will always convert step duration to seconds.

* vmalert: introduce additional HTTP URL params per-group configuration
The new group field `params` allows to configure custom HTTP URL params
per each group. These params will be applied to every request before
executing rule's expression. Hot config reload is also supported.
Field `extra_filter_labels` was deprecated in favour of `params` field.
vmalert will print deprecation log message if config file contains
the deprecated field.
`params` fields are supported by both Prometheus and Graphite datasource types.

* vmalert: provide more examples for `params` field

* vmalert: set higher priority for `params` setting
If there would be a conflict between URL params set in `datasource.url` flag
and params in group definition the latter will have higher priority.

This removes the unneeded level of indirection and improves code readability.
The "prometheus" and "graphite" constants aren't going to change in the future, so there is no sense in hiding them behind constants.
* vmalert: allow extra GET params in datasource package
ExtraParams will be added as GET params to every HTTP request made by datasource.
The `roundDigits` param, for example, was substituted by corresponding extra param.
* vmalert: add nocache=1 param for replay process
The `nocache=1` param is VictoriaMetrics specific parameter which prevents it
from caching and boundaries aligning for queries. We set it to avoid cache
pollution in `replay` mode and also to avoid unnecessary time range boundaries
alignment.
* vmalert: mention nocache=1 in replay description
* vmalert: fix bug with unused param
* vmalert: fix mistake with object reuse while parsing response
During the refactoring, the wrong optimisations was applied in
parse function which caused metric fields reset. The change removes
optimisation.

* vmalert: add test to cover multiple metrics in one response
* vmalert: support rules backfilling (aka `replay`)
vmalert can `replay` configured rules in the past
and backfill results via remote write protocol.
It supports MetricsQL/PromQL storage as data source,
and can backfill data to remote write compatible
storage.
Supports recording and alerting rules `replay`. See more
details in README.

* vmalert: review fixes
* vmalert: readme fixes
The new setting `extra_filter_labels` may be assigned to group.
If it is, then all rules within a group will automatically filter
for configured labels. The feature is well-described here
https://docs.victoriametrics.com#prometheus-querying-api-enhancements
New setting is compatible only with VM datasource.
Starting from v1.56.0 VM supports `round_digits` which allows to limit
the number of digits after the decimal point in response value. The feature
can be used to reduce entropy of produced by recording rules values
and significantly improve the compression. See more details in link below.

* Simplify arguments list for fn `queryDataSource` to improve readbility
* vmalert: adjust `time` param according to rule evaluation interval
With this change, vmalert will start to use rule's evaluation interval
for truncating the `time` param. This is mostly needed to produce consistent
time series with timestamps unaffected by vmalert start time. Now, timestamp
becomes predictable.
Additionally, adjustment is similar to what Grafana does for plotting range graphs.
Hence, recording rule series and recording rule expression plotted in grafana
suppose to become similar in most of cases.
* changes vmalert Querier with per rule querier
it allows to changes some parametrs based on rule setting
for instance - alert type, tenant for cluster version or event endpoint url.
* init implementation for graphite alerts
* adds graphite support for vmalert
* small fix
* changes vmalert graphite api with type
* updates tests
* small fix
* fixes graphite parse
* Fixes graphite from time
