Clarify how to setup custom environment variables
Context
Originating slack (comment).
GitLab supports multiple methods for a customer to install and configure their SM GitLab instance: via Omnibus, Operator, or Helm chart. However, it is unclear how to setup custom environmental variables for all of our installation paths.
This documentation gap was discovered while attempting to configure an SM instance to enable GitLab Duo via (these instructions).
Problems To Solve
- Discovery from Duo docs. Customers setting up Duo have a different docs UX entry point compared to customers installing GitLab from scratch.
- Instructions to configure GitLab Duo should work for customers deploying GitLab through any of our supported installation paths.
