Use new observability query API

Mat Appelman requested to merge mappelman/use-new-query-api into master

What does this MR do and why?

Uses new Observability Query API. This feature is behind the observability_tracing feature flag and the feature is still Experimental. It has only been enabled for certain projects in the gitlab-org and gitlab-com namespaces.

Backend changes have landed in gitlab-org/opstrace/opstrace!2275 (merged) and have been promoted to production.

Closes gitlab-org/opstrace/opstrace#2322 (closed)

How to set up and validate locally

Unfortunately running the whole stack is not trivial and not really straightforward to run locally, so I've just attached a demo of these changes. If you want to play around with the changes, I can prepare a VM and share a VPN config with you so you can connect to it and test it.
