d (day) and w (week) argument doesn't work with offset modifier

[chinmaygupta28]

Describe the bug
Only hour (h), minute (m), milliseconds (ms) and second (s) duration format works with the offset modifier but day (d), week (w) and year (y) throws this error = parse error at line 1, col 47: syntax error: unexpected NUMBER, expecting DURATION

To Reproduce
Make the 1d and 1w query visible to reproduce the error.

Expected behavior
I expect them to work as they work in promql.

Environment:
Any

Screenshots, Promtail config, or terminal output

@chinmaygupta28 thank you for reporting this.

This is indeed a bug. We state explicitly that we support time durations the same way Prometheus does, so this is an inconsistency.

I'll look into this and prepare a Pull Request.

Went through the docs and realized, year (y) doesn't work either, only minutes (m), hours (h) and milliseconds (ms) work. I will update the issue description.

Progress Update:

I've implemented a naive solution, but its not optimal. I'd like to explore an alternative, less complex, solution before submitting a PR. After an examination tomorrow afternoon, I'll continue work on this issue.
