UNSTRUCTURED_RAILS_LOG disabled by default

Hercules Merscher requested to merge removing-unstructured-logging-config into master

What does this MR do and why?

A few years ago, GitLab made the decision to switch to use structured logging. The flag UNSTRUCTURED_RAILS_LOG was then added to keep structured and unstructured log in use by lograge. Nowadays, nobody should be using unstructured logging at GitLab, and this flag will be now disabled by default.

Eventually, this flag will be removed completely when confirmed that it's not impacting any deployment.
