Adjust the timeframe shown in the Slack Metric alert chart

Problem Statement

Currently, roughly three days of history are shown. Depending on the type of alert, we'd want this to some times show more or less context than precisely three days. In our instance, we aren't really interested in the daily alert trend for this alert, so there's little point in having the graph span several days back.

Solution Brainstorm

There already is a "Display" select on the Edit Alert Rule page, which could also be used to customize the preview shown in Slack messages:

@jeengbe thanks a lot for this feedback! We've been discussing this internally too. The chart image should honor the time window setting in the alert rule is our thinking about this too
