Implement Unified Endpoint Discovery

[saswatamcode]

This issue currently tracks the work that needs to be done to complete the implementation of the Unified Endpoint Discovery, so that the usage of endpoint flag can be recommended by default instead of the current state of flags in Thanos, which can cause confusion.

A/C:

• This PR has to be completed: https://github.com/thanos-io/thanos/pull/4785
• This issue needs to be addressed: https://github.com/thanos-io/thanos/issues/4683
• Proposal needs to be implemented: https://thanos.io/tip/proposals-accepted/202101-endpoint-discovery.md/

This is planned to be proposed as a mentorship topic with @bwplotka! 🙂

Hello @saswatamcode, I applied through LFX and was curious is there anything else except sending resume and cover letter to the application? Maybe some challenge that I missed? Otherwise I'm pretty stocked about the project and looking forward to contributing to these proposal.
