Description
See https://github.com/grafana/mimir/issues/8723, configuration containing with api key file or url file caused Mimir Alertmanager to not start up, even though it is valid configuration.
The function mentions `// with some modifications to ignore file-related settings.`, unsure what the reasoning behind it is as the configuration is valid for Alertmanager.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the function containing the comment about ignoring file-related settings, then compare its handling with the valid Alertmanager configuration described in grafana/mimir#8723. Confirm that configurations using an API key file or URL file allow Mimir Alertmanager to start successfully, with regression coverage if the surrounding code provides tests.
