Upgrade snowplow-tracker to ~> 0.8.0 for Ruby 3.0+ compatibility

The snowplow-tracker gem is used for event tracking across the app.

The current version of this gem, 0.6.1, has specs failing on our ruby3 branch, eg in the specs below. There are likely to be more, wherever we use Event Tracking:

  • rspec spec/features/projects/new_project_spec.rb
  • spec/features/groups/import_export/connect_instance_spec.rb
  • spec/features/groups/import_export/import_file_spec.rb
  • spec/features/groups/import_export/migration_history_spec.rb

the following error is raised:

1.2) Failure/Error: raise JSConsoleError, message
          
          JSConsoleError:
            Unexpected browser console output:

The snowplow-tracker docs say ~> 0.8.0 is compatible with ruby 3.0+.

Upgrading to 0.8.0 resolves the security - Error with Permissions-Policy header error, however, at minimum:

  • the Gitlab::Tracking::Destinations::Snowplow class requires fixing as method arguments when creating an emitter and a tracker have changed.
  • spec/support/helpers/stub_snowplow.rb needs updating for the same reason.
  • the JS_CONSOLE_FILTER constant in spec/support/capybara.rb needs updating to filter out newly phrased error messages.
