The docs suggest the Next method returns a bool, but that's not the case (`Entry` is an int).
```
// Next advances the parser to the next sample. It returns false if no
// more samples were read or an error occurred.
Next() (Entry, error)
```
The docs were first added in d80a3de235 in 2017. Back then the signature was
indeed `func (p *Parser) Next() bool`. But then it got refactored in 76a4a46cb0
and the signature changed with it, yet docs stayed the same - and eventually made their way into the `Parser` interface.
However, the Protobuf parser does have the right wording: 5de2df752f
```
// Next advances the parser to the next "sample" (emulating the behavior of a
// text format parser). It returns (EntryInvalid, io.EOF) if no samples were
// read.
```

This PR is a reference implementation of the proposal described in #10420.
In addition to what described in #10420, in this PR I've introduced labels.StableHash(). The idea is to offer an hashing function which doesn't change over time, and that's used by query sharding in order to get a stable behaviour over time. The implementation of labels.StableHash() is the hashing function used by Prometheus before stringlabels, and what's used by Grafana Mimir for query sharding (because built before stringlabels was a thing).
Follow up work
As mentioned in #10420, if this PR is accepted I'm also open to upload another foundamental piece used by Grafana Mimir query sharding to accelerate the query execution: an optional, configurable and fast in-memory cache for the series hashes.

This function is called very frequently when executing PromQL functions,

Optimize histogram iterators
Histogram iterators allocate new objects in the AtHistogram and
AtFloatHistogram methods, which makes calculating rates over long
ranges expensive.
In #13215 we allowed an existing object to be reused
when converting an integer histogram to a float histogram. This commit follows
the same idea and allows injecting an existing object in the AtHistogram and
AtFloatHistogram methods. When the injected value is nil, iterators allocate
new histograms, otherwise they populate and return the injected object.
The commit also adds a CopyTo method to Histogram and FloatHistogram which
is used in the BufferedIterator to overwrite items in the ring instead of making
new copies.
Note that a specialized HPoint pool is needed for all of this to work
(`matrixSelectorHPool`).

PR #12557 introduced the possibility of parsing multiple exemplars per
native histograms. It did so by requiring the `Exemplar` method of the
parser to be called repeatedly until it returns false. However, the
protobuf parser code wasn't correctly updated for the old case of a
single exemplar for a classic bucket (if actually parsed as a classic
bucket) and a single exemplar on a counter. In those cases, the method
would return `true` forever, yielding the same exemplar again and
again, leading to an endless loop.
With this fix, the state is now tracked and the single exemplar is
only returned once.

Native histograms without observations and with a zero threshold of
zero look the same as classic histograms in the protobuf exposition
format. According to
https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/1127 , the idea is

histograms. This commit enables Prometheus to detect that no-op span
and adds a doc comment to the proto spec describing the behavior.

Signed-off-by: beorn7 <beorn@grafana.com>
Native histograms without a zero threshold aren't federated properly.
This adds a test to prove the specific failure mode, which is that
histograms with a zero threshold of zero are federated as classic
histograms.
The underlying reason is that the protobuf parser identifies a native
histogram by detecting a zero bucket or by detecting integer buckets.
Therefore, a float histogram with a zero threshold of zero and an
unpopulated zero bucket falls through the cracks (no integer buckets,
no zero bucket).
This commit also addse a test case for the latter.

The problem was the following:
When trying to parse native histograms and classic histograms in
parallel, the parser would first parse the histogram proto messages as
a native histogram and then parse the same message again, but now as a
classic histogram. Afterwards, it would forget that it was dealing
with a metric family that contains native histograms and would parse
the rest of the metric family as classic histograms only. The fix is
to check again after being done with a classic histogram.

So far, if a target exposes a histogram with both classic and native
buckets, a native-histogram enabled Prometheus would ignore the
classic buckets. With the new scrape config option
`scrape_classic_histograms` set, both buckets will be ingested,
creating all the series of a classic histogram in parallel to the
native histogram series. For example, a histogram `foo` would create a
native histogram series `foo` and classic series called `foo_sum`,
`foo_count`, and `foo_bucket`.
This feature can be used in a migration strategy from classic to
native histograms, where it is desired to have a transition period
during which both native and classic histograms are present.
Note that two bugs in classic histogram parsing were found and fixed
as a byproduct of testing the new feature:
1. Series created from classic _gauge_ histograms didn't get the
_sum/_count/_bucket prefix set.
2. Values of classic _float_ histograms weren't parsed properly.

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.

These benchmarks were testing things related to what Prometheus does, but not testing actual Prometheus code.
Moved the label-copying benchmark into the labels package.
This commit adds an alternate implementation for `labels.Labels`, behind
a build tag `stringlabels`.
Instead of storing label names and values as individual strings, they
are all concatenated into one string in this format:
[len][name0][len][value0][len][name1][len][value1]...
The lengths are varint encoded so usually a single byte.
The previous `[]string` had 24 bytes of overhead for the slice and 16
for each label name and value; this one has 16 bytes overhead plus 1
for each name and value.
In `ScratchBuilder.Overwrite` and `Labels.Hash` we use an unsafe
conversion from string to byte slice. `Overwrite` is explicitly unsafe,
but for `Hash` this is a pure performance hack.

This feature was discussed at a previous dev summit, and it was
determined that a feature like this would be useful in order to allow
the expression time to stabilize and prevent confusing resolved messages
from being propagated through Alertmanager.
This approach is simpler than having two PromQL queries, as was
sometimes discussed, and it should be easy to implement.
This commit does not include tests for the 'resolve_delay' field. This
is intentional, as the purpose of this commit is to gather comments on
the proposed design of the 'resolve_delay' field before implementing
tests. Once the design of the 'resolve_delay' field has been finalized,

With this commit, the parser stops to see a gauge histogram (whether

histogram.
