Add specs for nil project PAT authentication
What does this MR do?
Add specs to check that project access token authentication still works when project is nil.
Added ~"technical debt" label because a bug was introduced with !47247 (merged), causing the project policy to always return false
for nil
projects (which are valid). More bug explanation here: !47247 (comment 478690195)
The bug was fixed: !50800 (merged), and this MR introduces a spec that would have caught the bug in the first place. Verified that this spec fails with !47247 (merged) and passes with the bugfix changes made in !50800 (merged)
