Note that the test stage is a requirement for most Secure features

Problem to solve

GitLab's Secure features require are intended to run in the test stage. If customers omit the test stage, the Secure features won't run as intended.

Further details

This issue was raised because !60551 (merged) resolves this issue for the Secret Detection docs, but not for all other Secure features.

NOTE: The requirement of a test stage does not apply to the API fuzzing, or coverage-guided fuzzing analyzers. Therefore, they are out of scope of this issue.
