Parse duration expressions in accordance with promql (#5275)

* Add support for Prometheus like duration units in logql

* Remove redundant type conversion

* deduplicate call to sb.String

Add a comment to explain why both promql and time's ParseDuration methods are used

* extract duration parsing to separate function.

* Add tests to ensure promql duration units are supported

* Sort duration rune comment and list of runes in ascending order of length.
