Remove deprecated `/admin/application_settings` redirect
What does this MR do?
Fixes #199427 (closed).
Removes a redirect from /admin/application_settings to /admin/application_settings/general. The endpoint was deprecated and set as a redirect in 12.8 for 13.0 removal.
All GitLab links were updated in 12.8 so menu items and other navigation are not changing. This will only affect users who may have had a bookmark for application settings.
From the issue:
!22252 (merged) made the former path deprecated, but deferred its deletion until 13.0 release and introduced a temporary redirect. This issue is a reminder to delete this redirect.
