Heikki Linnakangas 6dbe4184f3 compute: Enable building VM images suitable for lauching with neonvm-guest
The 'legacy-vm-builder-image' Dockerfile target can still be used to
build an old-style VM image, for use with vm-builder. And that's still
the default target. However, there are now ano other target,
'compute-node-bootable', that can be used to build an image that
includes systemd unit files to launch the services, and
'compute-node-neonvm-payload' to package that as a QCOW2 image that
can be used with the new neon-vm launcher.

See https://github.com/neondatabase/autoscaling/pull/1211 for the new
launcher.

Compute Configuration

These files are the configuration files for various other pieces of software that will be running in the compute alongside Postgres.

Adding a sql_exporter Metric

We use sql_exporter to export various metrics from Postgres. In order to add a metric, you will need to create two files: a libsonnet and a sql file. You will then import the libsonnet file in one of the collector files, and the sql file will be imported in the libsonnet file.

In the event your statistic is an LSN, you may want to cast it to a float8 because Prometheus only supports floats. It's probably fine because float8 can store integers from -2^53 to +2^53 exactly.
