Make FS space alerts thresholds configurable (#1624)
* Make FS space alerts thresholds configurable (#1)

This makes it possible to tweak the thresholds for
the NodeFilesystemSpaceFillingUp alerts. Which
might be necessary in systems like Kubernetes,
where the image garbage collector runs at 85%,
so it's not a problem that the disk reaches that usage %.

// true “cloud native” setup, failures of a single node should be
// tolerated. Hence, even imminent failure of a single node is no
// reason to create a paging alert. However, in practice there are
// still many situations where operators like to get paged in time
// before a node runs out of disk space. nodeCriticalSeverity can
// be set to the desired severity for this kind of alerts. This

// could make this critical for traditional database masters but
// just a warning for K8s nodes.

// In some cases you'll want to adjust these, e.g. by default Kubernetes
// runs the image garbage collection when the disk usage reaches 85%
// of its available space. In that case, you'll want to reduce the
// critical threshold below to something like 14 or 15, otherwise
// the alert could fire under normal node usage.
