Especially for Kubernetes SD, this fixes a bug where the rendered
configuration says "api_server: null", which when read back is not
interpreted as an un-set API server (thus the default is not applied).

* consul: improve consul service discovery
Related to #3711
- Add the ability to filter by tag and node-meta in an efficient way (`/catalog/services`
allow filtering by node-meta, and returns a `map[string]string` or `service`->`tags`).
Tags and nore-meta are also used in `/catalog/service` requests.
- Do not require a call to the catalog if services are specified by name. This is important
because on large cluster `/catalog/services` changes all the time.
- Add `allow_stale` configuration option to do stale reads. Non-stale
reads can be costly, even more when you are doing them to a remote
datacenter with 10k+ targets over WAN (which is common for federation).
- Add `refresh_interval` to minimize the strain on the catalog and on the
service endpoint. This is needed because of that kind of behavior from
consul: https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/3712 and because a catalog
on a large cluster would basically change *all* the time. No need to discover
targets in 1sec if we scrape them every minute.
- Added plenty of unit tests.
Benchmarks
----------
```yaml
scrape_configs:
- job_name: prometheus
scrape_interval: 60s
static_configs:
- targets: ["127.0.0.1:9090"]
- job_name: "observability-by-tag"
scrape_interval: "60s"
metrics_path: "/metrics"
consul_sd_configs:
- server: consul.service.par.consul.prod.crto.in:8500
tag: marathon-user-observability # Used in After
refresh_interval: 30s # Used in After+delay
relabel_configs:
- source_labels: [__meta_consul_tags]
regex: ^(.*,)?marathon-user-observability(,.*)?$
action: keep
- job_name: "observability-by-name"
scrape_interval: "60s"
metrics_path: "/metrics"
consul_sd_configs:
- server: consul.service.par.consul.prod.crto.in:8500
services:
- observability-cerebro
- observability-portal-web
- job_name: "fake-fake-fake"
scrape_interval: "15s"
metrics_path: "/metrics"
consul_sd_configs:
- server: consul.service.par.consul.prod.crto.in:8500
services:
- fake-fake-fake
```
Note: tested with ~1200 services, ~5000 nodes.

Filtering by tag using relabel_configs uses **100kiB and 23kiB/s per service per job** and quite a lot of CPU. Also sends and additional *1Mbps* of traffic to consul.
Being a little bit smarter about this reduces the overhead quite a lot.
Limiting the number of `/catalog/services` queries per second almost removes the overhead of service discovery.
* consul: tweak `refresh_interval` behavior
`refresh_interval` now does what is advertised in the documentation,
there won't be more that one update per `refresh_interval`. It now
defaults to 30s (which was also the current waitTime in the consul query).
This also make sure we don't wait another 30s if we already waited 29s
in the blocking call by substracting the number of elapsed seconds.
Hopefully this will do what people expect it does and will be safer
for existing consul infrastructures.

This also removes closing of the target group channel everywhere
as the contexts cancels across all stages and we don't care about
draining all events once that happened.
The prefixed target provider changed a pointerized target group that was
reused in the wrapped target provider, causing an ever-increasing chain
of source prefixes in target groups from the Consul target provider.
We now make this bug generally impossible by switching the target group
channel from pointer to value type and thus ensuring that target groups
are copied before being passed on to other parts of the system.
I tried to not let the depointerization leak too far outside of the
channel handling (both upstream and downstream) because I tried that
initially and caused some nasty bugs, which I want to minimize.
Fixes https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/1083
This is with `golint -min_confidence=0.5`.
I left several lint warnings untouched because they were either
incorrect or I felt it was better not to change them at the moment.
Instead of only filling __meta_consul_dc when datacenter is set in
consul_sd_config this change fills the label based on what the agent
reports it's current data center is, if datacenter isn't manually set,
otherwise it uses whatever datacenter was set to.
Include position of same SD mechanisms within the same scrape configuration.
Move unique prefixing out of SD implementations and target manager into
its own interface.
In setups where the ServiceAddress is the relevant address for
scraping, users can relabel the `__address__` label to ServiceAddress
+ ":" + ServicePort.
This needs to be documented, of course. Will do once this is LGTM'd.
