By importing this Ruby code into gitlab-rails (and gitaly-ruby), we avoid
200ms of startup time for each gitlab_projects subprocess we are eliminating.
By not having a gitlab_projects subprocess between gitlab-rails / sidekiq and
any git subprocesses (e.g. for fork_project, fetch_remote, etc, calls), we can
also manage these git processes more cleanly, and avoid sending SIGKILL to them
The initializers including this were doing so at the top level, so every object
loaded after them had a `current_application_settings` method. However, if
someone had rack-attack enabled (which was loaded before these initializers), it
would try to load the API, and fail, because `Gitlab::CurrentSettings` didn't
have that method.
To fix this:
1. Don't include `Gitlab::CurrentSettings` at the top level. We do not need
`Object.new.current_application_settings` to work.
2. Make `Gitlab::CurrentSettings` explicitly `extend self`, as we already use it
like that in several places.
3. Change the initializers to use that new form.
