Problem

Previously, RDS instance tags were only available in the dedicated metric. This made it difficult to filter or group other RDS metrics by team, service, environment, or other tag-based identifiers in Prometheus and Grafana, without logic on the datasource part or in the dashboards. Our goal is to filter everything directly from Victoria Metrics without implementing additional logic into any part of the monitoring process, and by using filtering via extra_label.

This is described in #255.

Solution

This PR adds a new include-tags-in-metrics flag that allows RDS instance tags to be included as labels in all exported metrics when enabled.
