Remove the option from to search for approver !=
Related to #218570 (closed)
What does this MR do?
We are removing the option for Frontend to search merge requests for Approver !=. The query for the negation is going to be very expensive, and from the original issue, everyone was waiting for Approved-by !=, which is now merged.
We will create another issue for Approver !=, and if it gains traction, we can spend more time formulating a reasonable query.
