Which issue(s) does the PR fix:

This PR adds a "Duplicate query" button to Prometheus query panels, making it easier to write and run multiple queries with same time range, resolution etc. When you click on Duplicate query, a new copy of the panel being duplicated is added just below it. This new panel has the same query, time range, resolution, visualization mode as the original panel.

Why? - When you're troubleshooting an incident, you often need to compare different metrics within the exact same time window. Currently, you have to manually re-enter the time range, resolution, and display settings for every new panel, which is tedious.

Does this PR introduce a user-facing change?

This seems like a new feature rather than an enhancement? How about this:

This seems like a new feature rather than an enhancement? How about this:

We've historically decided to call small new features to existing larger features an "enhancement" rather than a "feature" in the changelog, but I've also never been too sure about where to draw the line.

I like that text (feature or not)!

Thanks, this text does sound better. Would editing the description in this PR be enough to make this change?

I’ve already used the suggested text in the PR for v3.9.0 release notes, so it doesn’t matter, but for consistency we should update this PR.

##### [\`v3.9.0\`](https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/releases/tag/v3.9.0)

#### Note for users of Native Histograms

In version 3.9, Native Histograms is no longer experimental, and the feature flag `native-histogram` has no effect.  You must now turn on
the config setting `scrape_native_histograms` to collect Native Histogram samples from exporters.

#### Changelog
