What this PR does / why we need it:
We want to create an alert for when object store flushes are not successful Currently there is no metric counting all flushes (successful and unsuccessful). There's ingester_chunks_flushed_total but that one just counts successful flushes (split by reason). For the alert it would be beneficial to have the ratio of failures compared to the total amount of "flush requests", so that the threshold for the alert is not based on an absolute rate.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
Related with https://issues.redhat.com/browse/LOG-6238

Special notes for your reviewer:

Checklist

  • Reviewed the CONTRIBUTING.md guide (required)
  • Documentation added
  • Tests updated
  • Title matches the required conventional commits format, see here
    • Note that Promtail is considered to be feature complete, and future development for logs collection will be in Grafana Alloy. As such, feat PRs are unlikely to be accepted unless a case can be made for the feature actually being a bug fix to existing behavior.
  • Changes that require user attention or interaction to upgrade are documented in docs/sources/setup/upgrade/_index.md
  • If the change is deprecating or removing a configuration option, update the deprecated-config.yaml and deleted-config.yaml files respectively in the tools/deprecated-config-checker directory. Example PR
