Correct the Geo re-verification interval default to 90 days
What does this MR do?
Corrects the default re-verification interval on the Geo background verification page from 7 days to 90 days.
The page has said 7 days since the CE/EE docs merge in 2019. GitLab 18.0
changed the geo_nodes.minimum_reverification_interval column default from 7
to 90 in !184473 (merged)
(migration 20250312124044_change_geo_concurrency_default_settings.rb),
db/structure.sql carries DEFAULT 90 today, and
doc/update/versions/gitlab_19_changes.md already says "90 days by default".
The 1-day floor stays as written; ee/app/models/geo_node.rb validates the
value as at least 1.
Two smaller edits in the same section:
- "and recommended" is dropped. Nothing in the model, the UI text, or the release notes calls either value a recommendation, only a default.
- The step no longer embeds
reverification-interval_v11_6.png. It shows the GitLab 11.6 Edit Geo Node form with the value 7, which this change would contradict, and the step text already names the field. The image file stays because the localized copies underdoc-locale/still reference it.
