Enforce instance-level MR approval settings

Instance-level MR approval settings will propagate down to project-level
ones. Once enabled at instance-level by an administrator, the MR
approval settings at project-level will not be editable.

This change will remove the ability to scope MR approval settings to
only compliance-labeled projects.
