vmalert only supports a single datasource for querying metrics and
managing alerts. Because of that, we need two instances to manage alerts
for both VictoriaLogs and VictoriaMetrics.
This is strongly inspired by the change made to Redis, i.e. a new
`instances` option was introduced with each option inside it.
With `mkRenamedOptionModule` it's ensured that existing configurations
still evaluate to the same result.
This allows on-the-fly rewriting of URLs before they are passed from
fetchurl (or fetchurlBoot) to curl.
The intended use is to allow inserting company-internal mirrors, or
working around company firewalls and similar network restrictions,
without having to extensively patch across all of nixpkgs. Instead,
users can pass a function in their nixpkgs that performs the necessary
URL rewrites.

By using the pinned nixpkgs we have for CI, we can lift the restriction
of building the nixpkgs manual only in PRs targeting master.
At the same time, this uses the pinned nixpkgs for the doc/ folder's dev
shell. This allows entering that shell while working on a staging-based
branch and write documentation.
Why should staging be un(der)documented, after all?
Note: The package that is available in nixpkgs as pkgs.nixpkgs-manual
will still be built with the current nixpkgs checkout, not the pinned
version. This is the same that hydra builds.
Added fetchTags feature to fetchgit, explicit and clear support for
fetching all tags after the source tree fetch completes. Doing this at
build-time in the fetcher is required for packages that invoke commands
like 'git describe' which require tags, and since the nix store is
read-only by design, it is not possible to git fetch --tags at
activation- or run-time. This feature may have been possible by
specifying a postFetch option including calling git fetch --tags,
however doing so obfuscates the solution to this very real problem.
Explicit support for fetching tags should be a first class citizen just
like fetching other refs.
We now plan to backport updates, so the release note shouldn't specify
exact versions.
Reworded to improve clarity.

Upstream had the brilliant idea of deleting their major version upgrade
notes without setting up any form of redirects to the new places
(https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/pull/35788), so the current
link is broken.
Also removes a duplicate release notes entry for renovate.
