1. A protected branch access level `belongs_to` a group in addition to a
   user. When access for a user is checked, see if the user is present
   in the access level's group, if any.

2. If a group is added to a project with `:reporter` access or lower,
   adding a group to a proteted branch does _not_ grant access, since
   the `push_code` ability is still checked. This is tested with a few
   hundred new tests in `git_access_spec`.

Add user last activity info

Adds `last_activity_at` info to users to track any activity from the user including any Git operations or logging in into the UI.

This adds a table with a 1-1 relationship with users, that gets updated every time the user logs in or runs any Git operation.

<br />
**Things to check:**

` Projects::GitHttpController` reads:

```ruby
# This file should be identical in GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition
```

with no explanation. With this change, they will diverge as I added a `log_user_activity` method there. Not sure if this is a problem...

<br />

This MR allow us to query the DB for user activity, as requested by https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/1022

### mySQL examples - active users last month:

```sql
SELECT u.username,
       a.last_activity_at
FROM   users u
       INNER JOIN user_activities a
               ON u.id = a.user_id
WHERE  last_activity_at > (SELECT Now() - INTERVAL 1 month) -- INTERVAL '1 MONTH' in postgreSQL
ORDER  BY last_activity_at; 
```

```sql
SELECT Count(*)
FROM   user_activities
WHERE  last_activity_at > (SELECT Now() - INTERVAL 1 month); -- INTERVAL '1 MONTH' in postgreSQL
```

User groups (that can be assigned as approvers)

Closes https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/180

It uses a user activity table instead of a column in users.
Tested with mySQL and postgreSQL

Convert CHANGELOG-EE to Markdown

All this does is convert the version sections into headers. The list
items shouldn't really be indented by two spaces, but it makes no
difference to the rendering and this way we retain authorship history
for the actual changes.

Remove ashley since she no longer works here

I'll send another MR to the handbook to add a step to offboarding so we don't miss these in the future.

Which would have been appropriate labels for this?

Decrease maximum time to wait for a mirror process to finish from 1 day to 2 hours

This MR proposes to decrease the time that GitLab waits before to mark a mirror update process stuck as `failed`.  
Full description of the scenario in #1093  
Now this time is one day. When the problem happens, the user sees during one day that the project was updating from upstream.  
If a project has been updating from a remote for longer than 2 hours, we could conclude that something went wrong, mark the mirror as `failed` and retry next time.

Closes #1093

API: New /users/:id/events endpoint

## What does this MR do?

If add a new `/users/:id/events` endpoint to retrieve a user's contribution events. The events returned are filtered so that only the events for projects that the current user can see are returned (similarly to what we do at the controller level).

## Why was this MR needed?

Because it's a nice feature to calculate leaderboards, for instance for #17815.

## What are the relevant issue numbers?

Closes #20866.

Set default_label attribute on weight issue filter.

The label for the "Weight" filter in the issues list is darker than the other filters. 

This MR sets the `default_label` attribute to 'Weight', so that the styles for default labels are applied to "Weight". This is the convention for other filter dropdowns. 

I'm guessing it regressed here 8961364c. The default_label was not set when the weight filter was originally transitioned to the new dropdown (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/commit/b0639b1fdafd0cf48f1fcdaa8047f7414010e643). I'm guessing some styles were unintentionally cascading to give this the correct look, and were changed.
