Otherwise in request specs, we will create factories in one connection
(main), while trying to access records in another connection (ci) while
running in a controller. This is because SafeRequestStore is not active
in the first situation but is active in the other.

This possibly is a problem with feature specs as well. This is only a
problem when ci database is configured,

To fix this, we always set GITLAB_USE_MODEL_LOAD_BALANCING to a non-nil
value so that we consistently use the same connection. We already set
GITLAB_USE_MODEL_LOAD_BALANCING to true anyway in CI, so let's set that
for all test environments.

This env var is not used in single database setups, so it shouldn't
affect single database setups

Sets up the ability for users to approve and reject deployments from
within the environments page.

Current information shown is how many approvals are needed and how many
are done, as well as who has approved and when.

A rejection short cuts to killing the deployment.

This is currently only in the new environment UI, as the old one is
going away.

Scan MR description for Jira issue keys when syncing builds with Jira

See merge request gitlab-org/gitlab!82204

This scans the MR description for Jira issue keys when syncing
builds with Jira. Issue keys can be included in:

* MR title
* MR description

Commit messages will not be scanned here because they need to be loaded
from Gitaly and this can cause N+1 problems.
