Treat environments matching `production/*` as Production

For Cycle Analytics, the environment `production` is treated as a
special case, and used to update the `first_deployed_to_production_at`
metric.

With the Review Apps changes, slash syntax is used to group related
environments in the list. This is mostly used for `review/<branch>`
environments, but it's possible for people to have multiple production
environments, and someone might then want to group them like
`production/eu`, `production/us`, or even just make it look prettier
with `production/www.example.com`. In any of these cases, the first
deploy to one of these `production/*` environments now is treated as a
Production deploy.

 | Code      | Measures the median time between pushing a first commit (previous stage) and creating a merge request (MR) related to that commit. The key to keep the process tracked is to include the [issue closing pattern] to the description of the merge request (for example, `Closes #xxx`, where `xxx` is the number of the issue related to this merge request). If the issue closing pattern is not present in the merge request description, the MR is not considered to the measurement time of the stage. |
 | Test      | Measures the median time to run the entire pipeline for that project. It's related to the time GitLab CI takes to run every job for the commits pushed to that merge request defined in the previous stage. It is basically the start->finish time for all pipelines. `master` is not excluded. It does not attempt to track time for any particular stages. |
 | Review    | Measures the median time taken to review the merge request, between its creation and until it's merged. |
-| Staging   | Measures the median time between merging the merge request until the very first deployment to production. It's tracked by the [environment] set to `production` (case-sensitive, `Production` won't work) in your GitLab CI configuration. If there isn't a `production` environment, this is not tracked. |
