Bohan Jiang 3cb5dc3ad6 chore(analytics): retire redundant PostHog tracking (MUL-4127) (#4996)
* chore(analytics): retire redundant PostHog tracking (MUL-4127)

PostHog had become a chaotic, largely-unused second copy of data we already
query from the DB and Grafana. Remove the redundant instrumentation.

Server: every product event (signup, workspace_created, issue_created,
issue_executed, chat_message_sent, team_invite_*, onboarding_*, agent_created,
cloud_waitlist_joined, feedback_submitted, contact_sales_submitted,
squad_created, autopilot_created) is now in metricsOnlyEvents, so
metrics.RecordEvent still increments the Prometheus/Grafana counter but no longer
ships to PostHog. DB rows remain the source of truth. Runtime/autopilot/
agent_task lifecycle were already Prometheus-only.

Frontend: delete the PostHog-only funnel instrumentation — $pageview (+ web and
desktop trackers), download_intent_expressed/page_viewed/initiated, the
onboarding_started mirror, onboarding_runtime_path_selected/detected,
feedback_opened, and source_backfill_*. The source-backfill modal itself stays
(it PATCHes the questionnaire to the DB).

Kept on PostHog (frontend only): $exception autocapture and the
client_crash / client_unresponsive stability telemetry (no DB equivalent), plus
$identify/$set. captureSignupSource (attribution cookie) stays — it still feeds
the signup_source Prometheus label.

Verified: pnpm typecheck, pnpm lint (0 errors), vitest (core/views/web/desktop),
go test ./internal/analytics/... ./internal/metrics/...

* docs(analytics): fix stale PostHog references after MUL-4127 (review follow-up)

Addresses review of #4996 — three spots still described server events as active
PostHog signals after they became metrics-only:

- docs/analytics.md: issue_executed is no longer a PostHog success signal; it is
  Prometheus-only (multica_issue_executed_total) + issue.first_executed_at, in
  both the event contract and the Reconciliation section.
- docs/analytics.md: the signup $set_once person properties (email, signup_source)
  are no longer emitted — signup is Prometheus-only; only the bucketed
  signup_source survives as the multica_signup_total label.
- server/internal/metrics/business_events.go: RecordEvent doc comment no longer
  claims it ships product events to PostHog / "PostHog is reserved for
  user/product-behaviour events" — every server event is now metrics-only.
