This PR adds some metrics to help identify job enqueue rates and
latencies. This work was initiated as a way to help reduce the cost of
the observation/measurement itself for autostart scaletests, which
impacts our ability to identify/reason about the load caused by
autostart. See: https://github.com/coder/internal/issues/1209
I've extended the metrics here to account for regular user initiated
builds, prebuilds, autostarts, etc. IMO there is still the question here
of whether we want to include or need the `transition` label, which is
only present on workspace builds. Including it does lead to an increase
in cardinality, and in the case of the histogram (when not using native
histograms) that's at least a few extra series for every bucket. We
could remove the transition label there but keep it on the counter.
Additionally, the histogram is currently observing latencies for other
jobs, such as template builds/version imports, those do not have a
transition type associated with them.
Tested briefly in a workspace, can see metric values like the following:
-
`coderd_workspace_builds_enqueued_total{build_reason="autostart",provisioner_type="terraform",status="success",transition="start"}
1`
-
`coderd_provisioner_job_queue_wait_seconds_bucket{build_reason="autostart",job_type="workspace_build",provisioner_type="terraform",transition="start",le="0.025"}
1`

Upgrades to slog v3 which includes a small, but backward incompatible API change to the acceptible call arguments when logging. This change allows us to verify via compile time type checking that arguments are correct and won't cause a panic, as was possible in slog v1, which this replaces (v2 was tagged but never used in coder/coder).
It also updates dependencies that also use slog and were updated.
I've left the `aibridge` dependency as a commit SHA, under the assumption that the team there (cc @pawbana @dannykopping ) will tag and update the dependency soon and on their own schedule.
Other dependencies, I pushed new tags.
Previously, `UpdateWorkspaceTimingsMetrics` would log a warning for
workspace builds that aren't tracked (restarts, stops, subsequent builds
after creation). This was noisy since these are legitimate operations,
not errors.
`UpdateWorkspaceTimingsMetrics` is specifically designed to track only
workspace creation, prebuild creation, and prebuild claim timings.

`prometheus.provisionerd_server_metrics: unsupported workspace timing
flags` appears in the logs, but without knowledge of the available flags
it's not possible to troubleshoot this.

## Description
When creating a prebuilt workspace, both `flags.IsPrebuild` and
`flags.IsFirstBuild` are true. Previously, the logic rejected cases with
multiple flags, so `coderd_workspace_creation_duration_seconds` wasn’t
updated for prebuilt creations. This is the only valid scenario where
two flags can be true.
## Changes
* Fix logic to update `coderd_workspace_creation_duration_seconds`
metric for prebuilt workspaces.
* Add prebuild helper functions to coderdenttest (other prebuild tests
can reuse this).
* Update workspace's provisionerdmetric tests to include this metric.

## Description
This PR introduces one counter and two histograms related to workspace
creation and claiming. The goal is to provide clearer observability into
how workspaces are created (regular vs prebuild) and the time cost of
those operations.
### `coderd_workspace_creation_total`
* Metric type: Counter
* Name: `coderd_workspace_creation_total`
* Labels: `organization_name`, `template_name`, `preset_name`
This counter tracks whether a regular workspace (not created from a
prebuild pool) was created using a preset or not.
Currently, we already expose `coderd_prebuilt_workspaces_claimed_total`
for claimed prebuilt workspaces, but we lack a comparable metric for
regular workspace creations. This metric fills that gap, making it
possible to compare regular creations against claims.
Implementation notes:
* Exposed as a `coderd_` metric, consistent with other workspace-related
metrics (e.g. `coderd_api_workspace_latest_build`:
https://github.com/coder/coder/blob/main/coderd/prometheusmetrics/prometheusmetrics.go#L149).
* Every `defaultRefreshRate` (1 minute ), DB query
`GetRegularWorkspaceCreateMetrics` is executed to fetch all regular
workspaces (not created from a prebuild pool).
* The counter is updated with the total from all time (not just since
metric introduction). This differs from the histograms below, which only
accumulate from their introduction forward.
### `coderd_workspace_creation_duration_seconds` &
`coderd_prebuilt_workspace_claim_duration_seconds`
* Metric types: Histogram
* Names:
* `coderd_workspace_creation_duration_seconds`
* Labels: `organization_name`, `template_name`, `preset_name`, `type`
(`regular`, `prebuild`)
* `coderd_prebuilt_workspace_claim_duration_seconds`
* Labels: `organization_name`, `template_name`, `preset_name`
We already have `coderd_provisionerd_workspace_build_timings_seconds`,
which tracks build run times for all workspace builds handled by the
provisioner daemon.
However, in the context of this issue, we are only interested in
creation and claim build times, not all transitions; additionally, this
metric does not include `preset_name`, and adding it there would
significantly increase cardinality. Therefore, separate more focused
metrics are introduced here:
* `coderd_workspace_creation_duration_seconds`: Build time to create a
workspace (either a regular workspace or the build into a prebuild pool,
for prebuild initial provisioning build).
* `coderd_prebuilt_workspace_claim_duration_seconds`: Time to claim a
prebuilt workspace from the pool.
The reason for two separate histograms is that:
* Creation (regular or prebuild): provisioning builds with similar time
magnitude, generally expected to take longer than a claim operation.
* Claim: expected to be a much faster provisioning build.
#### Native histogram usage
Provisioning times vary widely between projects. Using static buckets
risks unbalanced or poorly informative histograms.
To address this, these metrics use [Prometheus native
histograms](https://prometheus.io/docs/specs/native_histograms/):
* First introduced in Prometheus v2.40.0
* Recommended stable usage from v2.45+
* Requires Go client `prometheus/client_golang` v1.15.0+
* Experimental and must be explicitly enabled on the server
(`--enable-feature=native-histograms`)
For compatibility, we also retain a classic bucket definition (aligned
with the existing provisioner metric:
https://github.com/coder/coder/blob/main/provisionerd/provisionerd.go#L182-L189).
* If native histograms are enabled, Prometheus ingests the
high-resolution histogram.
* If not, it falls back to the predefined buckets.
Implementation notes:
* Unlike the counter, these histograms are updated in real-time at
workspace build job completion.
* They reflect data only from the point of introduction forward (no
historical backfill).
