Sadly, just linking to the Histogram best practice document, as done
for `histogram_quantile`, would be confusing here because the best
practice document only deals with quantiles in the context of
Histograms and Summaries, which is very different from the context of
the `quantile` aggregator and `quantile_over_time` function, which is
already a source of a lot of confusion.
Thus, I think the least bad solution is to add a short explanation in
this section directly. There isn't even a good resource on the
internet we can link to. A lot of statisticians use φ-quantiles, but
they don't have a generally accepted name for it.
I have added the explanation after the other detailed explanations of
`count_values`, `topk` and `bottomk`. I think that fits quite nicely
into the flow.

* OpenStack SD: Add availability config option, to choose endpoint type
In some environments Prometheus must query OpenStack via an alternative
endpoint type (gophercloud calls this `availability`.
This commit implements this option.

Added optional configuration item role, defaults to 'container' (backwards-compatible).
Setting role to 'cn' will discover compute nodes instead.
Human-friendly compute node hostname discovery depends on cmon 1.7.0:
c1a2aeca36
Adjust testcases to use discovery config per case as two different types are now supported.
Updated documentation:
* new role setting
* clarify what the name 'container' covers as triton uses different names in different locations

One of our users today asked us if dashes were allowed in recording rule names.
We asserted that they were not, but also that we could not remember for certain.
After determining empirically that they are _not_ allowed, I realized that the
documentation could be slightly clearer about valid rule names.
This PR simply adds a note to the documentation re-iterating that the rules must
be valid metric names - and more importantly, adds a link to where a user can
read what those *are*, in case they were not aware (or did not know where to find it).

This adds support for a new query param on the new `api/v1/metadata`
endpoint that provides metadata for a specified metric via the V1 API.
It collapses metadata that is equal across all targets, and aggregates
under the same metric name the ones that differ.

* api: provide per metric metadata
This adds a new endpoint that provides per metric metadata via the V1 API.
It collapses metadata that is equal across all targets, and aggregates under the same metric name the ones that differ.
* Allow tests to be asserted on response length
Some tests e.g. limit on API responses, don't require an assertion on
equality.
This allows us to assert against response length instead of
equality.

The desired shards calculation now properly keeps track of the rate of
pending samples, and uses the previously unused integralAccumulator to
adjust for missing information in the desired shards calculation.
Also, configure more capacity for each shard. The default 10 capacity
causes shards to block on each other while
sending remote requests. Default to a 500 sample capacity and explain in
the documentation that having more capacity will help throughput.

If it is blank and instance region metadata is not available, an error will
