Increment the max seats and seats owed values in real time as users are added
requested to merge increment-the-max-seats-and-seats-owed-values-in-real-time-as-users-are-added into master
What does this MR do?
Instead of waiting for the daily script that updates the max_seats_used counter we're updating it from every place where Group or Project members are created or updated.
Calculating the total number of billable members can be an expensive task for large groups like gitlab-org. That's why we're using a feature flag, we need to disable this feature in case we observe some performance issues.
Closes #199891 (closed)
