Expand User#belongs_to_paid_namespace? namespace search

What does this MR do and why?

Resolves https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/416651+.

The method User#belongs_to_paid_namespace? is intended to fetch all paid namespaces a user is a non-guest member of. However, it currently only accounts for direct memberships with root namespaces. It fails to include:

  1. Membership via a sub-group
  2. Membership via a project
  3. Membership via an invite to a sub-group via another Group
  4. Membership via an invite to a project via another group

This MR changes the method's behaviour to account for all the cases above.

How to set up and validate locally

  1. Start GDK.
  2. Pick a user (user A) with a paid root namespace containing some sub-groups and projects.
  3. Register a new user (user B).
  4. Log out as user B and log back in as user A.
  5. Using the Rails console, validate that user B returns false for belongs_to_paid_namespace?:
    user_b = User.last
    user_b.belongs_to_paid_namespace?
  6. For the targets listed below:
    1. Add user B to the target as a non-guest. (Guest membership should always return false).
    2. Validate using the Rails console that belongs_to_paid_namespace? returns the expected result.
    3. Remove user B from the target, or leave them in the target to validate behaviour for multiple memberships.

Targets for belongs_to_paid_namespace? == true:

  • Paid root group.
  • A sub-group under a paid root group.
  • A project under a paid root group.
  • A group linked to another group under a paid group.
  • A project linked to another group under a paid group.

Targets for belongs_to_paid_namespace? == false:

  • Root groups without a paid subscription.
  • Any namespaces or projects under or linked to a root group without a paid subscription.

SQL Queries

Before: find top-level paid namespaces user is a non-guest member of

There was one SQL query to find the top-level paid namespaces the user is a non-guest member of. It also has a variation where namespaces with trial subscriptions are excluded.

Default mode

SQL Query
SELECT
    1 AS one
FROM ((
        SELECT
            "namespaces"."id"
        FROM
            "namespaces"
        WHERE
            "namespaces"."type" = 'User'
            AND "namespaces"."owner_id" = 106)
    UNION (
        SELECT
            "namespaces"."id"
        FROM
            "namespaces"
            INNER JOIN "members" ON "namespaces"."id" = "members"."source_id"
        WHERE

After: find top-level paid namespaces of all namespaces and projects user is a non-guest member of

The old query is preceded by three pre-existing queries, which fetch all namespace IDs the user has a non-guest membership to. The old query has also been altered to search for the top-level paid namespaces using just the fetched namespace IDs, instead of relying on nested queries.

The three pre-existing queries are leveraged from the billable_code_suggestions_root_group_ids method in the same User model. This MR pulls them out into a new shared method and does not alter the queries.

Query 1: fetch namespace IDs from project and project-group link memberships

SQL Query
SELECT
    "projects"."namespace_id"
FROM
    "projects"
WHERE
    "projects"."id" IN (
        SELECT
            "project_authorizations"."project_id"
        FROM
            "project_authorizations"
        WHERE
            "project_authorizations"."user_id" = 1614863
            AND (access_level > 10))

Query 2: fetch namespace IDs from group and sub-group memberships

SQL Query
SELECT
    "members"."source_id"
FROM
    "members"
    LEFT OUTER JOIN "users" ON "users"."id" = "members"."user_id"
WHERE
    "members"."type" = 'GroupMember'
    AND "members"."source_type" = 'Namespace'
    AND "members"."user_id" = 1614863
    AND (("members"."user_id" IS NULL
            AND "members"."invite_token" IS NOT NULL)
        OR "users"."state" = 'active')
    AND "members"."requested_at" IS NULL
    AND (members.access_level > 5)
    AND (members.access_level > 10)

Query 3: fetch namespace IDs from group-group link memberships

WHERE (group_access > 10)
AND "group_group_links"."shared_with_group_id" = 9970
