If a query is interrupted via kill query, the tsm files managed
by the file store purger would never get removeed because
KeyCursor.Close was never called.
KeyCursor.Close should always be called now.
Casting syntax is done with the PostgreSQL syntax `field1::float` to
specify which type should be used when selecting a field. You can also
do `field1::field` or `tag1::tag` to specify that a field or tag should
be selected.
This makes it possible to select a tag when a field key and a tag key
conflict with each other in a measurement. It also means it's possible
to choose a field with a specific type if multiple shards disagree. If
no types are given, the same ordering for how a type is chosen is used
to determine which type to return.
The FieldDimensions method has been updated to return the data type for
the fields that get returned. The SeriesKeys function has also been
removed since it is no longer needed. SeriesKeys was originally used for
the fill iterator, but then expanded to be used by auxiliary iterators
for determining the channel iterator types. The fill iterator doesn't
need it anymore and the auxiliary types are better served by
FieldDimensions implementing that functionality, so SeriesKeys is no
longer needed.
Fixes#6519.
When a GROUP BY or multiple sources are used, the top level limit
iterator requires reading the entire iterator stream so it can find all
of the tag groups it needs to return. For large data series, this ends
up with the limit iterator discarding a lot of output.
This change adds a new lower level limit iterator on each series itself
so that there are fewer data points that have to be thrown away by the
top level iterator.
Fixes#5553.
