This adds a per-target cache of scraped metadata. The metadata is only
available for the lifecycle of the attached target. An API endpoint allows
to select metadata by metric name and a label selection of targets.

Relabelling rules can use this information to attach the name of the controller
that has created a pod.
In turn, this can be used to slice metrics by workload at query time, ie.
"Give me all metrics that have been created by the $name Deployment"

Reduce the use of the term `long-term`, when what we're really talking
about is remote clustered storage for increased capacity and durability.

This adds support for basic authentication which closes#3090
The support for specifying the client timeout was removed as discussed in https://github.com/prometheus/common/pull/123. Marathon was the only sd mechanism doing this and configuring the timeout is done through `Context`.
DC/OS uses a custom `Authorization` header for authenticating. This adds 2 new configuration properties to reflect this.
Existing configuration files that use the bearer token will no longer work. More work is required to make this backwards compatible.
* consul: improve consul service discovery
Related to #3711
- Add the ability to filter by tag and node-meta in an efficient way (`/catalog/services`
allow filtering by node-meta, and returns a `map[string]string` or `service`->`tags`).
Tags and nore-meta are also used in `/catalog/service` requests.
- Do not require a call to the catalog if services are specified by name. This is important
because on large cluster `/catalog/services` changes all the time.
- Add `allow_stale` configuration option to do stale reads. Non-stale
reads can be costly, even more when you are doing them to a remote
datacenter with 10k+ targets over WAN (which is common for federation).
- Add `refresh_interval` to minimize the strain on the catalog and on the
service endpoint. This is needed because of that kind of behavior from
consul: https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/3712 and because a catalog
on a large cluster would basically change *all* the time. No need to discover
targets in 1sec if we scrape them every minute.
- Added plenty of unit tests.
Benchmarks
----------
```yaml
scrape_configs:
- job_name: prometheus
scrape_interval: 60s
static_configs:
- targets: ["127.0.0.1:9090"]
- job_name: "observability-by-tag"
scrape_interval: "60s"
metrics_path: "/metrics"
consul_sd_configs:
- server: consul.service.par.consul.prod.crto.in:8500
tag: marathon-user-observability # Used in After
refresh_interval: 30s # Used in After+delay
relabel_configs:
- source_labels: [__meta_consul_tags]
regex: ^(.*,)?marathon-user-observability(,.*)?$
action: keep
- job_name: "observability-by-name"
scrape_interval: "60s"
metrics_path: "/metrics"
consul_sd_configs:
- server: consul.service.par.consul.prod.crto.in:8500
services:
- observability-cerebro
- observability-portal-web
- job_name: "fake-fake-fake"

metrics_path: "/metrics"
consul_sd_configs:
- server: consul.service.par.consul.prod.crto.in:8500

```
Note: tested with ~1200 services, ~5000 nodes.

Filtering by tag using relabel_configs uses **100kiB and 23kiB/s per service per job** and quite a lot of CPU. Also sends and additional *1Mbps* of traffic to consul.
Being a little bit smarter about this reduces the overhead quite a lot.
Limiting the number of `/catalog/services` queries per second almost removes the overhead of service discovery.
* consul: tweak `refresh_interval` behavior
`refresh_interval` now does what is advertised in the documentation,
there won't be more that one update per `refresh_interval`. It now
defaults to 30s (which was also the current waitTime in the consul query).
This also make sure we don't wait another 30s if we already waited 29s
in the blocking call by substracting the number of elapsed seconds.
Hopefully this will do what people expect it does and will be safer
for existing consul infrastructures.
There is currently no way to differentiate Windows instances from Linux
ones. This is needed when you have a mix of node_exporters /
wmi_exporters for OS-level metrics and you want to have them in separate
scrape jobs.
This change allows you to do just that. Example:
```
- job_name: 'node'
azure_sd_configs:
- <azure_sd_config>
relabel_configs:
- source_labels: [__meta_azure_machine_os_type]
regex: Linux
action: keep
```
The way the vendor'd AzureSDK provides to get the OsType is a bit
awkward - as far as I can tell, this information can only be gotten from
the startup disk. Newer versions of the SDK appear to improve this a
bit (by having OS information in the InstanceView), but the current way
still works.
The docs suggest that alert templating only works in the summary and
description annotation fields. Some testing and a review of the code
suggests this is no longer true and that you can template any
annotation field.
As discussed generally consider SDs as unstable, as realistically they
are never going to be. Drop the words "experimental/beta" from most
places in the docs, as users are getting the wrong impression from this.
