Create self-monitoring project within a group
What does this MR do?
Currently, all admins are directly added as maintainers of the self-monitoring project (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/14511#note_192538664).
This MR will change it to:
- Create a new group (at the same time as the new project) called Instance Administrators
- Create the self-monitoring project in that group so that all users who are members of that group have permissions of Owner/Maintainer in the new project.
- If the project has already been created, do not create it again. It detects if the project has already been created by checking for the project ID in
application_settings
.
