Split and clean up Metrics page

Amy Qualls requested to merge docs-aqualls-split-metrics-page into master

What does this MR do?

Begin shifting information around so the front page of the Metrics directory (https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/operations/metrics/) is now an introduction into the default metrics dashboard. Split alerting information out into a new page (operations/metrics/alerts.md) to keep the index page focused. Create new dashboard image to serve as a basic intro to the dashboard setup.

The metrics/dashboards/index.md page (https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/operations/metrics/dashboards/index.html) is still a mess with this MR, but I need this work to land first, and once it lands, turning the Dashboards page into the "custom dashboards" page becomes a LOT easier.

This work will be of intense interest to @nadia_sotnikova, @kbychu, @dhershkovitch, @ClemMakesApps, and @sarahwaldner.

Author's checklist (required)

Do not add the feature, frontend, backend, ~"bug", or database labels if you are only updating documentation. These labels will cause the MR to be added to code verification QA issues.

Review checklist

All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.

1. Primary Reviewer

  • Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.

2. Technical Writer

  • Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable DevOps stage.

3. Maintainer

  1. Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  2. Ensure a release milestone is set.
  3. If there has not been a technical writer review, create an issue for one using the Doc Review template.
