Docs feedback: please add what can be safely deleted after disabling prometheus
Issue description:
I just ran into `/var/opt/gitlab` on a (small, home use) Omnibus install consuming way more space than anticipated.
Turned out `/var/opt/gitlab/prometheus` consumed just shy of 6 Gigs, while the rest of `/var/opt/gitlab/` is just shy of 2 Gigs. Monitoring data consuming thrice the space needed for my repos and issues came as a surprise.
Since I also never once looked at the built-in prometheus, I followed your docs at
https://docs.gitlab.com/13.3/ee/administration/monitoring/prometheus/index.html#configuring-prometheus
to disable it. So far so good, the docs were easy to locate and the steps clear, BUT;
After a `gitlab-ctl reconfigure`, `/var/opt/gitlab/prometheus` was still present (that's OK), but it was not clear from the 3 steps under "To disable Prometheus and all of its exporters, as well as any added in the future:" what can and should be deleted on the filesystem after setting `prometheus_monitoring['enable'] = false`.
Request:
Can you please add to that section of the docs which directories can be safely deleted after disabling prometheus?
Additional info:
Since it gets enabled by default since 9.0, I'll presume I'm not the only one with a small EE instance that will want to disable prometheus for space saving reasons.
FWIW: I've deleted that one large directory with seemingly no ill effect, but clarification in the docs plus the info if there are other places in the filesystem I can clean would be appreciated.
