Remove the `container_expiration_policies_historic_entry` feature flag
🐟 Context
container_expiration_policies_historic_entry
is a feature flag scoped to Projects we used to slowly allow more and more projects to have cleanup policies.
Executing cleanup policies is not an easy task and given the scale of gitlab.com, when we introduced them, we only allowed new projects to have cleanup policies.
Slowly but surely we allowed existing old project to have policies using this feature flag and a %
deployment.
This feature flag has been enabled globally 2 months ago on gitlab.com.
Now is the time where we remove this feature flag from the codebase.
Here is the rollout issue: #262639+.
Lastly, note that this is a feature flag within a feature flag
As such, the proper changelog will be created when the "global" feature flag is enabled by default. See !80815 (merged).
