Native Histogram Support #3733

Description

@f1ko

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Prometheus v2.40.0 introduces native histograms (as a new experimental feature).
Applications that already want to push native histogram metrics via remote write require an endpoint that support it.
To remain compatibility with Prometheus VictoriaMetrics shall support native histograms (once stable).

Although changes are still likely since it is not marked as stable yet some initial thought regarding the future implementation into VictoriaMetrics may be done already.
Tracking native histogram implementation on Prometheus can be done here.

Describe the solution you'd like

VictoriaMetrics shall support native histograms.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using Prometheus with native histograms enabled as a remote write endpoint is a valid alternative for applications that require it although a bit expensive if VictoriaMetrics is already in use.
