From the dev console, when netobserv view is tied to a namespace, a different thanos endpoint must be used: thanos-querier on port 9092 provides access to metrics restricted to a particular namespace.

We will implement a temporary(?) workaround to avoid waiting for NETOBSERV-1701 : by duplicating the "SrcK8S_Namespace" label (or dst equivalent) into a label named just "namespace", we'll make it work out of the box without change in the monitoring stack. But this would be an incomplete workaround, because we need to choose (by design) querying either for source or for destination namespaces, hence missing part of the traffic.

Ingress metrics would use dest namespace as "namespace" label, and Egress metrics would use source namespace as "namespace", using relabelling rules
