Show blog post comments only in production

Fixes https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/issues/1611

This MR actually sets an environment variable only when the stage is production. Middleman then checks this and skips the addition of the disqus snippet from the layout if the criteria is not met.

marked as a Work In Progress

This doesn't work yet. Comments are disabled even when the variable is set to production. Need to investigate some more.

@rspeicher thanks for the suggestion :) Assigning to you. Let's see how the review app behaves, I tested locally with:

MIDDLEMAN_ENV=production middleman

and

middleman

and it worked as expected.

Seems what I came across in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/merge_requests/6226#note_31117870 is no longer the issue.
