add prefix for system databases/make names configurable

Currently the MongoDb Charts system databases are called * metadata * app * auth * log which collides with our app specific databases. A solution could be to prefix them e.g. mongodb_charts_metadata. The same issue we have with a standard MongoDB Database named config which was introduced in MongoDb 3.6 to store information about replicasets. This could also have the mongodb_ prefix. So currently there is no way to distinguish a MongoDB internal database from a app-specific one.

    Charts on-prem will be discontinued from September 2021, so we won't be investing in changes to the hosting model.
