#5689 "Prometheus target page: fold state sets, show epoch times, size
bytes", step 1 of milestone 508 "Prometheus widget templates".
- A state set (name ending in _state, a state label, every series 0 or 1;
or the OpenMetrics form, the label named after the metric) reads as one
row per thing it describes, naming the current state, the others on
hover. fabledarchives_jobs{state} is a count and stays as it is.
- label_pairs / state_label / fold_states in service.py, for the widget
templates to reuse.
- After a good scrape, series it no longer has lose their newest value
(forget_gone): Archives' old build_info row read as current beside the
new one. History stays; a failed scrape forgets nothing; alert rules keep
their own last-sample time.
- Epoch times and _bytes sizes were already read by shown_value /
metric_value.

- tests/test_breadcrumbs.py: the Prometheus target list is its section's
own top page, like SNMP's, so it carries no trail.
- The integration test's exposition has label braces, which str.format read
as fields: the fake scrape raised, the target was recorded down and no
series landed. It substitutes the counter with replace() now.
- docs/plugins/prometheus.md: adding a target, filtering, how series are
named and stored, alerting, and the Fabled Archives recipe.

A bundled prometheus plugin, on by default like the other protocol plugins.
Targets are rows edited on its page: address, bearer token (encrypted),
interval, keep/leave-out name patterns and a series cap. Steward does the
filtering; the endpoint serves everything (Archives' ruling).
- A 5 s tick scrapes due targets at once, each within a 30 s deadline, and
writes the outcome to its row and its series through record_metrics, so
alert rules can watch any of them.
- Gauges are stored as they are; counters (and a histogram's or summary's
_sum/_count) as <name>_per_sec rates from the second scrape. Buckets and
quantiles are skipped. A labelled series is stored under
"<target>:k=v,…". Each target also records is_up, scrape_ms, series_kept
and series_capped.
- Pages: targets not answering first, with why; a target's series grouped
by metric with their newest values; a chart per series; the editor with
Test, which scrapes once and says what would be stored.
- The counter-to-rate keeper moves to steward/core/counter_rates.py; SNMP's
RateKeeper now scales its rate on top of it.
- metric_value reads Prometheus's _seconds as a span and _per_sec as a rate.
- The catalog guard treats an empty list as a dynamic source (snmp,
prometheus), as the rule form does.
