feat(metrics): add comprehensive application metrics and KPIs (#518)

Closes #518

📝 Description

This pull request introduces a comprehensive metrics and KPI tracking system to monitor application health, business performance, and user behavior. It integrates with Prometheus by exposing a /metrics endpoint and includes scheduled jobs for calculating key business indicators.

This implementation directly addresses the need for business metrics and analytics dashboards by exposing critical data for monitoring and feature adoption measurement.

Key Features Implemented:

• Prometheus Integration: A new MetricsModule exposes a /metrics endpoint for scraping. Includes default Node.js metrics.
• API Latency Monitoring: A global MetricsInterceptor tracks API request latency (p50, p95, p99) using a Prometheus histogram.
• Business KPIs: A KpiService runs on a 5-minute cron schedule to calculate and update the following metrics:
  • Active Users (DAU, WAU, MAU)
  • Revenue Per Course
  • Enrollment Conversion Rate
  • User Retention Rate
  • Payment Success Rate
• Unit Tests: Comprehensive unit tests for the new KpiService to ensure calculation logic is correct.

• Proper NestJS HTTP exceptions are thrown instead of generic Error (N/A for this feature)
• Logging uses the shared logger with meaningful, structured messages (within KpiService)
• Guards (auth/role/permission or custom) protect all endpoints that require authentication/authorization (N/A, /metrics is public)

Great job so far

There’s just one blocker — the workflow is failing. Could you take a look and fix it so all checks pass?

Happy to review again once that’s done.
