Add an Ingress object specifically for gRPC to
GitLab KAS.

Out of the box, this only provides configuration
for Ingress NGINX.

This is not supported when using relative URL for
the GitLab instance, by nature of gRPC's design.

Changelog: changed

Jackson Bigelow authored Jan 06, 2026 and Achilleas Pipinellis committed Jan 06, 2026

This commit improves the database upgrade documentation based on
customer feedback to address several areas of confusion:

1. Clarifies that the 7.0.0 password file section applies when
   upgrading TO 7.0.0, not past it
2. Explains when secret key renaming is actually required
   (only with usePasswordFiles: true)
3. Adds warning about PostgreSQL metrics exporter not honoring
   auth.secretKeys configuration
4. Clarifies when the full backup/restore procedure is needed
   (PostgreSQL major version changes vs chart-only upgrades)

These changes help users understand which steps apply to their
specific upgrade scenario and avoid common pitfalls.

Changelog: changed

Clarify PostgreSQL upgrade requirements and password configuration

* Document how to migrate bundled MinIO to Garage.
* Document how to migrate bundled Redis to Valkey.
* Document how to migrate bundled PostgreSQL to CloudNativePG.

The migration process can be desribed in three phases:

1. Backup the instance.
1. Provision external services and configure GitLab for them.
1. Restore backup into new services.

The migration was tested on GKE 1.33 but should be provider
agnostic.
