[metrics-team] How to find metrics code

Hi,

I talked to a volunteer over the weekend who was interested in
contributing to metrics.

I found them an easy ticket, which had a copy of the line of code that
needed to be changed. But it took us about 15 minutes to find that line
of code.

We tried searching using GitHub, but the metrics repositories have not
been mirrored (#28394). I don't think the gitweb.torproject.org search
covers multiple repositories, and it isn't particularly good inside a
repository.

We also tried looking in the reproducible metrics guide, but it doesn't
link to the relevant source code, or the relevant repositories.

When I see something on the metrics website, how do I find the code
that implements it? Is there some way to make it easier?
