Wiser coders than myself have come to the conclusion that a `switch`
statement is almost always superior to a statement that includes any
`else if`.
The exceptions that I have found in our codebase are just these two:
* The `if else` is followed by an additional statement before the next
condition (separated by a `;`).
* The whole thing is within a `for` loop and `break` statements are
used. In this case, using `switch` would require tagging the `for`
loop, which probably tips the balance.
Why are `switch` statements more readable?
For one, fewer curly braces. But more importantly, the conditions all
have the same alignment, so the whole thing follows the natural flow
of going down a list of conditions. With `else if`, in contrast, all
conditions but the first are "hidden" behind `} else if `, harder to
spot and (for no good reason) presented differently from the first
condition.
I'm sure the aforemention wise coders can list even more reasons.
In any case, I like it so much that I have found myself recommending
it in code reviews. I would like to make it a habit in our code base,
without making it a hard requirement that we would test on the CI. But
for that, there has to be a role model, so this commit eliminates all
`if else` occurrences, unless it is autogenerated code or fits one of
the exceptions above.

We haven't updated golint-ci in our CI yet, but this commit prepares
for that.
There are a lot of new warnings, and it is mostly because the "revive"
linter got updated. I agree with most of the new warnings, mostly
around not naming unused function parameters (although it is justified
in some cases for documentation purposes – while things like mocks are
a good example where not naming the parameter is clearer).
I'm pretty upset about the "empty block" warning to include `for`
loops. It's such a common pattern to do something in the head of the
`for` loop and then have an empty block. There is still an open issue
about this: https://github.com/mgechev/revive/issues/810 I have
disabled "revive" altogether in files where empty blocks are used
excessively, and I have made the effort to add individual
`// nolint:revive` where empty blocks are used just once or twice.
It's borderline noisy, though, but let's go with it for now.
I should mention that none of the "empty block" warnings for `for`
loop bodies were legitimate.

* Switch from 'sanity' to more inclusive lanuage
"Removing ableist language in code is important; it helps to create and
maintain an environment that welcomes all developers of all backgrounds,
while emphasizing that we as developers select the most articulate,
precise, descriptive language we can rather than relying on metaphors.
The phrase sanity check is ableist, and unnecessarily references mental
health in our code bases. It denotes that people with mental illnesses
are inferior, wrong, or incorrect, and the phrase sanity continues to be
used by employers and other individuals to discriminate against these
people."

This commit adds `@ <timestamp>` modifier as per this design doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uSbD3T2beM-iX4-Hp7V074bzBRiRNlqUdcWP6JTDQSs/edit.
An example query:
```
rate(process_cpu_seconds_total[1m])
and
topk(7, rate(process_cpu_seconds_total[1h] @ 1234))
```
which ranks based on last 1h rate and w.r.t. unix timestamp 1234 but actually plots the 1m rate.

For a sufficiently complex expression, having to render
thousands of nodes for every subquery type error can take
a while - so don't do that.
