Title: Prometheus: allow operation of special agent without querying targets
endpoint
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 2.2.0i1
Previously, the Prometheus special agent would query the endpoint `/api/v1/targets`
regardless of
what was configured in the Prometheus rule. This was an additional burden on users, which
did not
specify any scrape targets and therefore do not need this endpoint. E.g., it can lead to
additional
timeouts. With this werk, the endpoint `/api/v1/targets` is only queried if necessary.
