Set user availability (MVC)

Release notes

Problem to solve

• From: #33801 (closed)
• There is no standardised way for users to show that they are busy
• There is no standardised way to determine whether users are available to review MRs (as described here: &3920)

User experience goal

Now

• Let users signal and see if they are busy via the status update UI

Later

• Add busy data to
  • project/group members lists
  • Issue/MR/Epic author in list view and detail view
  • Author name in Analytics data tables
• Figure out reviewer type signal for reviewers/maintainers
• Link from MR to this list to streamline manual search
• Pull reviewer availability data into MR to streamline automated search
• Give an indication that user is busy and warn users trying to get in touch Also, am I correct in assuming that these cases will not have the (Busy) appended?

a. Popover	b. Navbar	c. Inline comment	d. user profile	e. Sidebar popover	f. Sidebar dropdown	g. User comment
