Timeout config key collision

What happened?

Description

There is a collision of config keys here:

• exporter/prometheusremotewriteexporter - Timeout for whole operation of PushMetrics collides with Timeout of HTTP requests to Victoria Metrics. The collision makes it impossible to configure different timeouts for whole operation vs each request thus preventing retries in case of timeouts.

Steps to Reproduce

Try to configure both Config.Timout and Config.ClientConfig.Timeout.

Expected Result

The timeouts are different.

Actual Result

The timeouts are equal and have the value given by "timeout" key in config file.
