Remove randomize_notification_email_marker feature flag
What does this MR do and why?
Remove the randomize_notification_email_marker feature flag and always use a random hidden footer marker in notification emails. This covers both the notify and mailer layouts, and prevents Gmail from collapsing notifications for the same target.
This MR follows Add random marker to mailer layout, which merged on 2026-10-02.
