'iowait' and 'steal' indicate specific idle/wait states, which shouldn't
be counted into CPU Utilisation. Also see
https://github.com/prometheus-operator/kube-prometheus/pull/796 and
https://github.com/kubernetes-monitoring/kubernetes-mixin/pull/667.
Per the iostat man page:
%idle
Show the percentage of time that the CPU or CPUs were idle and the
system did not have an outstanding disk I/O request.
%iowait
Show the percentage of time that the CPU or CPUs were idle during
which the system had an outstanding disk I/O request.
%steal
Show the percentage of time spent in involuntary wait by the
virtual CPU or CPUs while the hypervisor was servicing another
virtual processor.

irate is a rate function that only looks at the most
recent two data points, and calucaltes a per-second value
from that. This produces much more granular graphs for
fast moving data, and works sanely across many scrape intervals.
It doesn't do so well for slowly moving data.
This provides the basic js, css and console template
templates required to build dashboards.
Included as an example are consoles for the node_exporter.
