Marcel Amirault 73c6477b7e Changing badges to use parentheses not brackets
Previously, we used brackets to denote the tier badges,
but this made Kramdown, the docs site Markdown renderer,
show many warnings when building the site. This is now
fixed by using parentheses instead of square brackets.

This was caused by [PREMIUM] looking like a link to
Kramdown, which couldn't find a URL there.

Notification settings API

  • new_note
  • new_issue
  • reopen_issue
  • close_issue
  • reassign_issue
  • issue_due
  • new_merge_request
  • push_to_merge_request
  • reopen_merge_request
  • close_merge_request
  • reassign_merge_request
  • merge_merge_request
  • failed_pipeline
  • success_pipeline
  • new_epic (ULTIMATE)
