WIP: This needs more tests.

It now gets a from and through value, which it may opportunistically
use to optimize the retrieval. With possible future range indices,
this could be used in a very efficient way. This change merely applies
some easy checks, which should nevertheless solve the use case of
heavy rule evaluations on servers with a lot of series churn.

Idea is the following:

- Only archive series that are at least as old as the headChunkTimeout
  (which was already extremely unlikely to happen).

- Then maintain a high watermark for the last archival, i.e. no
  archived series has a sample more recent than that watermark.

- Any query that doesn't reach to a time before that watermark doesn't
  have to touch the archive index at all. (A production server at
  Soundcloud with the aforementioned series churn and heavy rule
  evaluations spends 50% of its CPU time in archive index
  lookups. Since rule evaluations usually only touch very recent
  values, most of those lookup should disappear with this change.)

- Federation with a very broad label matcher will profit from this,
  too.

As a byproduct, the un-needed MetricForFingerprint method was removed
from the Storage interface.
