Opt out of Organizations
What does this MR do and why?
We introduce a feature flag that will allow people to opt out of Organization dog fooding elements that differ from the customer experience. This may be necessary for GitLab Team Members who need to record demos, take screenshots, etc.
This MR will specifically hide the "New Organization" available through the + dropdown button, and the Organization Switcher in the left sidebar.
The FF state is a little confusing as the roadmap has changed this year. We are looking to remove the existing ui_for_organizations FF in #561183 which will help a bit.
The opt_out_organizations roll out issue is at #562264
Closes #562263 (closed)
