Split Secure features into more granular features

Description

NOTE: the below description is specific to SAST but this change should be made for all devopssecure features.

We are treating the existing devopssecure categories as features within the codebase. We should instead break the categories into their composite features.

The sast feature is not granular enough as it's currently specified at the EE level, but is partially available to all levels.

Proposal

Replace Secure features with more specific features. In the case of Category:SAST, https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/application_security/sast/index.html#summary-of-features-per-tier lays out what should be available.

Tasks

  • Create a feature string for all top-level features that aren't available to all levels.
  • Replace usage of the sast string feature value with policy references when possible
  • Deprecation notice regarding split of sast feature (this may not be needed)

Points

Discussion points are declared by headings, list items, and single lines that start with the text (case-insensitive) point:. For example, the following are all valid points:

  • #### POINT: This is a point
  • * point: This is a point
  • + Point: This is a point
  • - pOINT: This is a point
  • point: This is a **point**

Note that any markdown used in the point text will also be propagated into the topic summaries.

Outcomes

Outcomes define the decisions or resolutions of a discussion. Once outcomes are defined, sub-topics and points are collapsed underneath the outcomes.

Outcomes are declared in a similar manner as points:

  • #### OUTCOME: This is an outcome
  • * outcome: This is an outcome
  • + Outcome: This is an outcome
  • - oUTCOME: This is an outcome
  • outcome: This is an outcome

Note that multiple outcomes may be declared for each topic.

Topics

Topics can be stand-alone and contained within an issuable (epic, issue, MR), or can be inline.

Inline topics are defined by creating a new thread (discussion) where the first line of the first comment is a heading that starts with (case-insensitive) topic:. For example, the following are all valid topics:

  • # Topic: Inline discussion topic 1
  • ## TOPIC: **{+A Green, bolded topic+}**
  • ### tOpIc: Another topic

Quick Actions

Action Description
/discuss sub-topic TITLE Create an issue for a sub-topic. Does not work in epics
/discuss link ISSUABLE-LINK Link an issuable as a child of this discussion

Discussion-Size Indicators

The relative size of the discussion occurring within a topic and its sub-topics is indicated via braille dots.

More dots means that more points or sub-topics exist within a given topic.

Examples:

  • TOPIC ⣿⣿⡆ A large discussion occurred here
  • TOPIC A smaller discussion occurred here
