PR with Payload

https://github.com/BalancerMaxis/multisig-ops/pull/670

Summary:

Xave Finance (pronounced “Save Finance”) has built an FX optimized AMM on top of the Balancer v2 Vault, the “FXPools”. Xave is quickly progressing in its mission to bring liquid FX to the Balancer ecosystem.

As of Nov ’23, Xave has facilitated ~$50M in stablecoin FX, has held an average of ~$3M fiat stablecoin TVL and is hitting ~$1.8M / wk in FX vol representing roughly 30% MoM growth.

Xave is proposing to re-add the following gauges into the veBAL system, given these stablecoin pairs were successfully approved for gauges prior. Xave had to migrate LPs into new FXPools, thus the need for a new set of gauges to re-enable veBAL emissions for these stablecoin currency pairs. See our Medium article describing the bug, response and fix for more information.
