Fabian Reinartz 8fa18d564a storage: enhance Querier interface usage
This extracts Querier as an instantiateable and closeable object
rather than just defining extending methods of the storage interface.
This improves composability and allows abstracting query transactions,
which can be useful for transaction-level caches, consistent data views,
and encapsulating teardown.

Julius Volz c187308366 storage: Contextify storage interfaces.
This is based on https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/pull/1997.

This adds contexts to the relevant Storage methods and already passes
PromQL's new per-query context into the storage's query methods.
The immediate motivation supporting multi-tenancy in Frankenstein, but
this could also be used by Prometheus's normal local storage to support
cancellations and timeouts at some point.

Julius Volz b24e5d63bc Add noop local storage engine.
This adds a flag -storage.local.engine which allows turning off local
storage in Prometheus. Instead of adding if-conditions and nil checks to
all parts of Prometheus that deal with Prometheus's local storage
(including the web interface), disabling local storage simply means
replacing the normal local storage with a noop version that throws
samples away and returns empty query results. We also don't add the noop
storage to the fanout appender to decrease internal overhead.

Instead of returning empty results, an alternate behavior could be to
return errors on any query that point out that the local storage is
disabled. Not sure which one is more preferable, so I went with the
empty result option for now.
