Prevent projects creating group links outside hierarchy

Doug Stull requested to merge 353148-projects-observe-prevent-sharing-setting into master

What does this MR do and why?

  • adds observation of the root_ancestor.namespace_settings.prevent_sharing_groups_outside_hierarchy value for determining if a group can be invited(shared) with a project at service/API layer.
    • this already existed at the group layer, but not at the project layer.
  • refines the interfaces of the GroupLinks creation service so that they look and feel the same between projects and groups
  • encapsulates the shared code/concepts into a concern for projects and groups link creation services
  • attempts to reduce the confusion on what a shared_group and a shared_with_group is by utilizing group instead of shared_group.
