Fix warnings in custom generator for metrics definition

What does this MR do?

Related to #326358 (closed).

This removes require_relative in RedisHLLGenerator that loaded UsageMetricDefinitionGenerator again after Rails autoloads the class in certain situations (e.g. while running RSpec), causing numerous already defined constant warnings.

Removing require_relative by itself causes the generator to break, throwing uninitialized constant Gitlab::UsageMetricDefinitionGenerator, because Gitlab::UsageMetricDefinitionGenerator is not autoloaded when the other generator is invoked by rails g gitlab:usage_metric_definition:redis_hll.

To fix this, lib/generators is now added to autoload paths.
