A Peer as defined by the `cluster` package represents the node in the
cluster. It is used in other packages to know the status of all of the
members or how long should we wait to know if a notification has already fired.
In Cortex, we'd like to implement a slightly different way of
clustering (using gRPC for communication and a
hash ring for node discovery).
This is a small change to support that by changing the consumer of other
packages to an interface.
Silences and Notification channels don't need an interface as they take
a `func([]byte) error` as a parameter.

Adds a job which runs periodically and refreshes cluster.peer dns records.
The problem is that when you restart all of the alertmanager instances in an environment like Kubernetes, DNS may contain old alertmanager instance IPs, but on startup (when Join() happens) none of the new instance IPs. As at the start DNS is not empty resolvePeers waitIfEmpty=true, will return and "islands" of 1 alertmanager instances will form.

Alertmanager is exiting with a non-zero exit code if the initial cluster
join fails. This behavior could be not wanted because:
- As Alertmanager is a critical component with an at-least-once
guarantee, failing on joining the cluster is unnecessary as
Alertmanager still functions by itself.
- In an environment like Kubernetes discovering peers via DNS, peers
might roll out one-by-one, leaving the DNS entries unpopulated for the
first peer of a set. Failing on initial join prevents a roll-out.
Instead of failing on the initial join this patch only logs the failure.
The cluster can be later joined via the `handleReconnect`.
This is a regression introduced in PR #1456 [1].

* cluster: make sure we don't miss the first pushPull
During the join, memberlist initiates a pushPull to get initial data.
Unfortunately, at this point the nflog and silence listener have not
been registered yet, so the first data arrives only after one pushPull
cycle (1min by default !).

The memberlist library fails when it can't find a private address and no
advertise address is given. To return a helpful message to the user,
AlertManager mimics the logic from memberlist. However the code had a
bug that swallowed the error message and made it difficult for the user
to understand how to fix the problem.

* Gossip large messages via SendReliable
For messages beyond half of the maximum gossip
packet size, send the message to all peer nodes
via TCP.
The choice of "larger than half the max gossip
size" is relatively arbitrary. From brief testing,
the overhead from memberlist on a packet seemed to
only use ~3 of the available 1400 bytes, and most
gossip messages seem to be <<500 bytes.
* Add tests for oversized/normal message gossiping
* Make oversize metric names consistent
* Remove errant printf in test
* Correctly increment WaitGroup
* Add comment for OversizedMessage func
* Add metric for oversized messages dropped
Code was added to drop oversized messages if the
buffered channel they are sent on is full. This
is a good thing to surface as a metric.
* Add counter for total oversized messages sent
* Change full queue log level to debug
Was previously a warning, which isn't necessary
now that there is a metric tracking it.

The cluster configuration uses DefaultLANConfig which seems
to be quite sensitive to WAN conditions. Allowing the tuning of these 3
parameters (TCP Timeout, Probe Interval and Probe Timeout) makes
clustering more robust across WAN connections.

As an heuristic for mesh readyness, try to see if
the mesh looks stable (the number of peers isn't changing too much).
This implementation always mark the altermanager as ready after a maximum of 60s.
This adds one new flags to control this behavior:
```
--cluster.settle-timeout=60s mesh settling timeout. Do not wait more than this duration on startup.
```
It also adds `/-/ready` which always return 200 (in order to make it clear
that we are ready as soon as we can receive requests).
The mesh status is exposed in `/api/v1/status` and visible on `/#/status`.
* cluster: fix typos and base interval on gossipInterval
* cluster: gather alertmanager_peer_position all the time
This change moves the gathering of the alertmanager_peer_position metric
outside of the clusterWait() function so that the metric is computed
accurately even when no alerting group fires.
* cluster: add alertmanager_cluster_health_score metric
This metric is retrieved from the memberlist library.
