Plugin Metrics: Eliminate data race in plugin metrics middleware (#99396)

fix: eliminate data race in plugin metrics middleware

A data race was detected when multiple goroutines accessed the `MetricsMiddleware`
simultaneously. The race occurred because a single `MetricsMiddleware` instance
was being shared across goroutines while its `BaseHandler` field was being
modified during middleware chain setup.

Fix by creating a new `MetricsMiddleware` instance for each middleware chain,
while safely sharing the thread-safe Prometheus metrics and plugin registry.
This maintains proper metrics collection while eliminating the mutable shared
state that caused the race condition.

Original error was detected here:

```
