GitLab Duo Code Suggestions stops working in Web IDE in GitLab 16.3
Problem to Solve
Prior to upgrading to GitLab 16.3, users were able to access GitLab Duo Code Suggestions through the GitLab Web IDE. With changes to authentication methods and required extension upgrades, the Web IDE didn't receive those changes and has stopped functioning for Code Suggestions.
Proposal
Given that the Web IDE works with Code Suggestions on GitLab.com now, we should backport the required changes so that users who have access don't suddenly have it removed. This is also important because 16.3 is a required upgrade stop and so it's likely users will land on this version and maybe stay on it.
