Send estimated wait time when joining a queue about server HOT 5 OPEN

I've opened a PR to add the player count of the queue as a dimension to the matchmaking search time metric in Prometheus. How does one take a look at these metrics for PROD?

You need to ask our server admins for access. But I am not sure how having this info in Prometheus is supposed to help?
The wait time calculations need to happen in the server, so they can be sent to the clients

My idea was to add the dimension to prometheus to get initial regression modelling for the server calculations. We'd need a sufficiently large sample size for the linear regression so we can store it in prometheus to perform the regression. The other option is to store it in the DB for queue, # of players in the queue, and time it took to find a match.

I'd say it should be stored in the db otherwise it would be hard to get the info out of Prometheus again

Okay too easy. I'll close that PR and get to work on that change.
