What?

Hi everyone,

This PR adapts the remote write module documentation to describe the changes introduced through https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/4634

The last "limitation" I've added about using counters and gauges instead of native histograms, and the example about slow requests dominating fast ones, does actually also apply for the remote write case and not just for the Pushgateway. Therefore, it could be debated whether this should be moved up to "Counter and gauges" section.
