In the ASRouter tests, browser_asrouter_experimentLoaderAPI is failing with Glean.nimbusTargetingEnvironment.prefValues is undefined - stack: recordPrefValues@resource://nimbus/lib/TargetingContextRecorder.sys.mjs:328:. Failure is also happening in toolkit/components/normandy, see treeherder

Attachment: Bug 1936317 - Don't record targeting context metrics in artifact builds r?emcminn

Because there is not artifact build support for object metrics (see
bug 1883857) we disable the targeting context telemetry via a pref that
is always false on artifact builds. This allows local artifact builds to
run unrelated tests succesfully and not fail inside Nimbus.

Once bug 1883857 lands, this will be reverted.
