Enable continuous container scanning by default

What does this MR do and why?

Container Scanning Continuous Vulnerability Scans, also known as Continuous Container Scanning, allow for GitLab instances to scan known software components for newly released advisories. This feature is now enabled by default, but can be disabled if needed by disabling the :container_scanning_continuous_vulnerability_scans feature flag.

See [Feature flag] Rollout `container_scanning_cont... (#437162 - closed) for more information and supporting evidence for enabling this by default.
