Add E2Es for unusual names in branches and files

Anastasia McDonald requested to merge qa-e2e-add-tests-for-unuasual-strings into master

Description of the test

Adds coverage for special characters in branch/file names and ensures repository file tree renders correctly. Addresses the past regression connected to slashes and hashes in branch names, see gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com#7228 (closed) for more details.

Check-list

  • Confirm the test has a testcase: tag linking to an existing test case in the test case project.
  • Note if the test is intended to run in specific scenarios. If a scenario is new, add a link to the MR that adds the new scenario.
  • Follow the end-to-end tests style guide and best practices.
  • Use the appropriate RSpec metadata tag(s).
  • Ensure that a created resource is removed after test execution. A Group resource can be shared between multiple tests. Do not remove it unless it has a unique path. Note that we have a cleanup job that periodically removes groups under gitlab-qa-sandbox-group. NB we also have a cleanup job for projects and this is the only resource generated in the tests.
  • Ensure that no transient bugs are hidden accidentally due to the usage of waits and reloads.
  • Verify the tags to ensure it runs on the desired test environments.
  • If this MR has a dependency on another MR, such as a GitLab QA MR, specify the order in which the MRs should be merged.
  • (If applicable) Create a follow-up issue to document the special setup necessary to run the test: ISSUE_LINK
