Change second view tests to test multiple pages

Description

We have been testing second view (visiting one page and then measuring the next page) for a couple of years to better simulate a hot cache.

I think we should focus on two longer user journeys instead, that way we can get more data on page views with more or less hot caches and will better measure the Wikipedia rabbit hole.

I've changed that so we now have the concept of "second view" metrics that are for pages where we first visit the main page and then visit the page under tests. We do this both on Android on desktop.
