[Feature flag] Enable `core_security_mr_widget_counts` by default
What
Enable the :core_security_mr_widget_counts
feature flag, added in !47656 (merged) as part of &4394.
The main reason for the existence of the feature flag is because the backend support for the feature wasn't in place by the time !47656 (merged) was done.
Once the backend is done, this feature flag can be enabled by default.
