Add redirect and renaming note for exporter

Marcel Amirault requested to merge docs-rename-monitor-fix into master

What does this MR do?

When GitLab Monitor Exporter was renamed in !16511 (merged), the old file was deleted instead of adding a redirect, which broke links to it from outside projects (Omnibus docs, for example). Found while working on: gitlab-docs#436 (closed)

I added the redirect per https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/#changing-document-location. I also expanded the note to explain the renaming, so that it is still findable when searching for the old name (I hope)

Author's checklist

Review checklist

All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.

1. Primary Reviewer

  • Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.

2. Technical Writer

  • Optional: Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable DevOps stage.

3. Maintainer

  1. Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  2. Ensure a release milestone is set and that you merge the equivalent EE MR before the CE MR if both exist.
  3. If there has not been a technical writer review, create an issue for one using the Doc Review template.
