we should have documentation about valid measure expressions

We have zero documentation on this, nor do we have links from the metrics config. This would be quite useful for users, who will surely be confused.

A few ideas for it:

  • We'll probably want a docs page for "Create your first dashboard", which goes through a basic end-to-end example. Given that page, a separate reference page specifically for "Creating metrics" - showing the world of possibilities - would be helpful
  • One section would focus on Measures and provide at least 3-5 examples of evolving complexity
  • Focus on one real world use case (e.g. metrics from an eCommerce business)
