Metal instances are now available

We have added a new instance type: PlanetScale Metal. Metal nodes run on local NVMe drives and are the fastest database nodes available in the cloud. These instance classes unlock unlimited IOPS and are much less expensive than equivalent EBS-backed volumes.

Metal nodes are generally available and ready for production workloads. Several customers, including Block and Intercom, have been running on Metal for months prior to public release.
