Add a metric with alertmanager_notifications_success_total
What did you do?
I would like to create an availability SLO using (good events)/(total_events) and currently, we don't have a proper way to check what was the notification that was sent with success.
With that in mind, it could be nice to have a alertmanager_notifications_success_total metric, since alertmanager already has alertmanager_notifications_total and alertmanager_notifications_failed_total
What did you expect to see?
A way to identify alerts that was sent with success.
What did you see instead? Under which circumstances?

Typically, we don't provide success metrics because you can compute them yourself.
You can do success by subtracting total - failure e.g. alertmanager_notifications_total - alertmanager_notifications_failed_total.
The query you're looking for is probably:
(alertmanager_notifications_total - alertmanager_notifications_failed_total) / alertmanager_notifications_total
