Change build queuing metrics FF to ops type

What does this MR do and why?

Change build queuing metrics FF to ops type

This flag has been enabled for a long time on GitLab.com, and the metrics are considered production-ready, but the they are undocumented and stuck behind a :development flag, making it largely inaccessible to self-managed customers.

To address those issues, we are making this flag to an :ops type flag and adding documentation. The flag remains disabled by default to avoid adding unexpected load on customers' Prometheus instances.
