Adjust how we push experiment data into the client
What does this MR do?
Switches to using the ApplicationExperiment.published_experiment method, which works nicer for running experiments in non-controller/view layers, and gives us more control over when this is rendered, so all partials can be rendered before the data surfaces to the client.
We push this into the client as window.gl.experiments now, so need to switch up the way it's used in the client.
Utilizes this new gl.experiments object, replacing the window.gon.experiment usage. This also addresses including all relevant experiment contexts in all events now, so cleans up the existing ways this was being handled, and improves on a couple of the helpers and utility methods.
