This ensures that the "author" association of an event's "target"
association is eager loaded whenever the "target" association defines an
"author" association. This in turn solves the N+1 query problem we first
tried to solve in
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/15788 but caused
problems when displaying milestones as those don't define an "author"
association.

The approach in this commit does mean that the authors are _always_
eager loaded since this takes place in the "belongs_to" block. This
however shouldn't pose too much of a problem, and as far as I can tell
there's no real way around this unfortunately.

This change is required because otherwise if a user is created with a
value for `projects_limit` that matches the DB default, it gets
overwritten by `current_application_settings.default_projects_limit`. By
removing the default we once again can allow a user to be created with a
limit of 10 projects without the risk that it'll change to 10000

Improve performance of DiffDiscussion#truncated_diff_lines and DiffNote#diff_line by removing expensive diff position calculation and comparison

This reverts merge request !15712

Previously, this would include the entire User record in the update
hash, which was rendered in the response using `to_json`, erroneously
exposing every attribute of that record, including their (now removed)
private token.

Now we only include the user ID, and perform the lookup on-demand.

Uses `list_commits_by_oid` on the CommitService, to request the needed
commits for pipelines. These commits are needed to display the user that
created the commit and the commit title.

This includes fixes for tests failing that depended on the commit
being `nil`. However, now these are batch loaded, this doesn't happen
anymore and the commits are an instance of BatchLoader.

I've followed the [upgrade guide](https://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_bot/blob/4-9-0-stable/UPGRADE_FROM_FACTORY_GIRL.md) and ran these two commands:

```
grep -e FactoryGirl **/*.rake **/*.rb -s -l | xargs sed -i "" "s|FactoryGirl|FactoryBot|"
grep -e factory_girl **/*.rake **/*.rb -s -l | xargs sed -i "" "s|factory_girl|factory_bot|"
```

The hook ordering influenced the diffs being generated as these used
values from before the update due to the memoization still being in
place. This commit reorders them and tests against this behaviour.

Allows ordering in GET api/v4/projects/:project_id/repository/contributors
through `order_by` and `sort` params.
The available `order_by` options are: name|email|commits.
The available `sort` options are: asc|desc.

Closes gitaly#808

The Gitaly CommitService is being hammered by n + 1 calls, mostly when
finding commits. This leads to this gRPC being turned of on production:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/issues/514#note_48991378

Hunting down where it came from, most of them were due to
MergeRequest#show. To prove this, I set a script to request the
MergeRequest#show page 50 times. The GDK was being scraped by
Prometheus, where we have metrics on controller#action and their Gitaly
calls performed. On both occations I've restarted the full GDK so all
caches had to be rebuild.

Current master, 806a68a8, needed 435 requests
After this commit, 154 requests

Treat empty markdown and html strings as valid cached text, not missing cache that needs to be updated
