Subject: [PATCH] Prometheus: Hide 'Kick start your query' button for existing
 queries (#113980)

* Prometheus: Hide 'Kick start your query' button for existing queries

* refactor: simplify query check logic in Prometheus editor

Remove unnecessary useMemo and buildVisualQueryFromString logic.
Just check query.expr directly to determine button visibility.

* fix: format code with prettier
