This optimizes the runtime and memory allocation behavior for label matchers
other than type "Equal". Instead of creating a new set for every union of
fingerprints, this simply adds new fingerprints to the existing set to achieve
the same effect.
The current behavior made a production Prometheus unresponsive when running a
NotEqual match against the "instance" label (a label with high value
cardinality).

This fixes https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/390
The cause for the deadlock was a lock semantic in Go that wasn't
obvious to me when introducing this bug:
http://golang.org/pkg/sync/#RWMutex.Lock
Key phrase: "To ensure that the lock eventually becomes available, a
blocked Lock call excludes new readers from acquiring the lock."
In the memory series storage, we have one function
(GetFingerprintsForLabelMatchers) acquiring an RLock(), which calls
another function also acquiring the same RLock()
(GetLabelValuesForLabelName). That normally doesn't deadlock, unless a
Lock() call from another goroutine happens right in between the two
RLock() calls, blocking both the Lock() and the second RLock() call from
ever completing.
GoRoutine 1 GoRoutine 2
======================================
RLock()
... Lock() [DEADLOCK]
RLock() [DEADLOCK] Unlock()
RUnlock()
RUnlock()
Testing deadlocks is tricky, but the regression test I added does
reliably detect the deadlock in the original code on my machine within a
normal concurrent reader/writer run duration of 250ms.

This was initially motivated by wanting to distribute the rule checker
tool under `tools/rule_checker`. However, this was not possible without
also distributing the LevelDB dynamic libraries because the tool
transitively depended on Levigo:
rule checker -> query layer -> tiered storage layer -> leveldb
This change separates external storage interfaces from the
implementation (tiered storage, leveldb storage, memory storage) by
putting them into separate packages:
- storage/metric: public, implementation-agnostic interfaces
- storage/metric/tiered: tiered storage implementation, including memory
and LevelDB storage.
I initially also considered splitting up the implementation into
separate packages for tiered storage, memory storage, and LevelDB
storage, but these are currently so intertwined that it would be another
major project in itself.
The query layers and most other parts of Prometheus now have notion of
the storage implementation anymore and just use whatever implementation
they get passed in via interfaces.
The rule_checker is now a static binary :)

We are not reusing buffers yet. This could introduce problems,
so the behavior is disabled for now.

The closing of Prometheus now using a sync.Once wrapper to prevent
any accidental multiple invocations of it, which could trigger
corruption or a race condition. The shutdown process is made more
verbose through logging.
A not-enabled by default web handler has been provided to trigger a
remote shutdown if requested for debugging purposes.

The format header size is not deducted from the size of the byte
stream when calculating the output buffer size for samples. I have
yet to notice problems directly as a result of this, but it is good
to fix.

The idiomatic pattern for signalling a one-time message to multiple
consumers from a single producer is as follows:
```
c := make(chan struct{})
w := new(sync.WaitGroup) // Boilerplate to ensure synchronization.
for i := 0; i < 1000; i++ {
w.Add(1)
go func() {
defer w.Done()
for {
select {
case _, ok := <- c:
if !ok {
return
}
default:
// Do something here.
}
}
}()
}
close(c) // Signal the one-to-many single-use message.
w.Wait()
```

Idiomatic semaphore usage in Go, unless it is wrapping a concrete type,
should use anonymous empty structs (``struct{}``). This has several
features that are worthwhile:
1. It conveys that the object in the channel is likely used for
resource limiting / semaphore use. This is by idiom.
2. Due to magic under the hood, empty structs have a width of zero,
meaning they consume little space. It is presumed that slices,
channels, and other values of them can be represented specially
with alternative optimizations. Dmitry Vyukov has done
investigations into improvements that can be made to the channel
design and Go and concludes that there are already nice short
circuiting behaviors at work with this type.
This is the first change of several that apply this type of change to
suitable places.
In this one change, we fix a bug in the previous revision, whereby a
semaphore can be acquired for curation and never released back for
subsequent work: http://goo.gl/70Y2qK. Compare that versus the
compaction definition above.
On top of that, the use of the semaphore in the mode better supports
system shutdown idioms through the closing of channels.

This allows putting a scalar as the first argument of a binary operator
in which the second argument is a vector:
<scalar> <binop> <vector>
For example,
1 / http_requests_total
...will output a vector in which every sample value is 1 divided by the
respective input vector element.
This even works for filter binary operators now:
1 == http_requests_total
Returns a vector with all values set to 1 for every element in
http_requests_total whose initial value was 1.
Note: For filter binary operators, the resulting values are always taken
from the left-hand-side of the operation, no matter whether the scalar
or the vector argument is the left-hand-side. That is,
1 != http_requests_total
...will set all result vector sample values to 1, although these are
exactly the sample elements that were != 1 in the input vector.
If you want to just filter elements without changing their sample
values, you still need to do:
http_requests_total != 1
The new filter form is a bit exotic, and so probably won't be used
often. But it was easier to implement it than disallow it completely or
change its behavior.

There are four label-matching ops for selecting timeseries now:
- Equal: =
- NotEqual: !=
- RegexMatch: =~
- RegexNoMatch: !~
Instead of looking up labels by a simple clientmodel.LabelSet (basically
an equals op for every key/value pair in the set), timeseries
fingerprint selection is now done via a list of metric.LabelMatchers.

In the case that a getValuesAtIntervalOp's ExtractSamples() is called
with a current time after the last chunk time, we return without
extracting any further values beyond the last one in the chunk
(correct), but also without advancing the op's time (incorrect). This
leads to an infinite loop in renderView(), since the op is called
repeatedly without ever being advanced and consumed.
This adds handling for this special case. When detecting this case, we
immediately set the op to be consumed, since we would always get a value
after the current time passed in if there was one.

This fixes a bug where an interval op might advance too far past the end
of the currently extracted chunk, effectively skipping over relevant
(to-be-extracted) values in the subsequent chunk. The result: missing
samples at chunk boundaries in the resulting view.

This also fixes the compaction test, which before worked only because
the input sample sorting was accidentally equal to the resulting on-disk
sample sorting.

- Most of this is the actual regression test in tiered_test.go.
- Working on that regression tests uncovered problems in
tiered_test.go that are fixed in this commit.
- The 'op.consumed = false' line added to freelist.go was actually not
fixing a bug. Instead, there was no bug at all. So this commit
removes that line again, but adds a regression test to make sure
that the assumed bug is indeed not there (cf. freelist_test.go).
- Removed more code duplication in operation.go (following the same
approach as before, i.e. embedding op type A into op type B if
everything in A is the same as in B with the exception of String()
and ExtractSample()). (This change make struct literals for ops more
clunky, but that only affects tests. No code change whatsoever was
necessary in the actual code after this refactoring.)
- Fix another op leak in tiered.go.

Overall, this gives us good speedups in the areas where they matter
most: decoding values from disk and accessing the memory storage (which
is also used for views).
Some of the smaller append examples take minimally longer, but the cost
seems to get amortized over larger appends, so I'm not worried about
these. Also, we're currently not bottlenecked on the write path and have
plenty of other optimizations available in that area if it becomes
necessary.
Memory allocations during appends don't change measurably at all.

This introduces semantic versioning (http://semver.org/) in Prometheus:
- A new VERSION file contains the semantic version string.
- The "tarball" target now includes versioning and build information in
the tarball name, like: "prometheus-0.1.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz".
- A new "release" target allows scp-ing the versioned tarball to a
remote machine (file server).
- A new "tag" target allows git-tagging the current revision with the
version specified in VERSION.

This doesn't add complex discriminator logic yet, but adds a single
version byte to the beginning of each samples chunk. If we ever need to
change the disk format again, this will make it easy to do so without
having to wipe the entire database.
