Dedicated instances not intended to join GitLab.com

Thong Kuah requested to merge clarify_dedicated_instances_in_cells into master

What does this MR do and why?

Dedicated instances not intended to join GitLab.com

  1. It is a non-goal for any Dedicated instances, which already have their own single-tenant DB, and custom domain, to join the GitLab.com cluster of cells
  2. Following that, rename "Dedicated instance" to "instance provisioned by Dedicated tooling" to prevent confusion.
