Enable the new multipart handler by default

What does this MR do?

With !33277 (merged), the rails backend has been update to support a new way to pass upload parameters between workhorse and rails. See the MR's description for a detailed explanation.

This change has been deployed behind a (global) feature flag.

This feature flag has been enabled on gitlab.com.

This MR will simply enable it by default and update the related documentation. This allows us to deploy this change on self-managed instances. In self-managed instance, uploads storage can be configured in a different way than on gitlab.com.

A changelog has already been added with !33277 (merged), I don't think that we need a second one.
