Breaking changes

default named retention policies won't be used to query. Users who have a default named retention policy in their influxdb database, have to rename it to something else. Having default named retention policy is not breaking anything. We will make sure to use the actual default retention policy under the hood. To change the hardcoded retention policy in the dashboard.json, users must they select the right retention policy from dropdown and save the panel/dashboard. Issue #66466

Grafana Alerting rules with NoDataState configuration set to Alerting will now respect "For" duration. Issue #65574

Users who use LDAP role sync to only sync Viewer, Editor and Admin roles, but grant Grafana Server Admin role manually will not be able to do that anymore. After this change, LDAP role sync will override any manual changes to Grafana Server Admin role assignments. If grafana_admin is left unset in LDAP role mapping configuration, it will default to false. Issue #58820
