observability: separate search-based code intelligence from regular search metrics

Warren Gifford requested to merge sg/code-intel-outfactor into master

Created by: slimsag

Prior to this commit, "Search" and "Search API" were the only distinction in the frontend monitoring dashboard. However, I learned that search-based code intelligence may be the most massive player on Sourcegraph.com's search usage and currently there is no way to distinguish the two. This makes it so that the two are distinguished and the breakdown is as follows:

  • "Search at a glance" (shown by default)
  • "Search-based code intelligence" (hidden by default)
  • "Search API usage" (hidden by default)

The actual browser extension change so that the request_type is changed from /.api/graphql?Search to /.api/graphql?CodeIntelSearch will be rolled out separately.

For now, the expandable panels are just a copy of the search at a glance panels (but just focused on search code intel requests only), in the future they will likely be tailored more towards search code intel in specific as e.g. a "syntax error" alert there would mean a major error in our code as compared to a regular user's search where it means they messed up.
