clear resolved prometheus alerts from state

When Prometheus alerts stop firing, they were previously left in state
and became stale. Now they are automatically removed when no longer
in the firing alerts list from Prometheus.

Also fix Magefile Openbsd target to run build before deploy sequentially
instead of using mg.Deps which runs them in parallel.
