Extend group activity to go further back in history

Release notes

Group activity shows extra historical activity beyond the previous (200) limit.

Problem to solve

In the Activity page for a group (groups/<group_name>/-/activity) there's a limit of the history it can go back. Right now it displays 10 pages, with 20 items per page. In busy GitLab environments, this is not enough history.

Proposal

Increase the amount of history available through one of these methods:

  1. Change from the infinite scroll to a paginated page with a page size that can be selected. For example, 100 per page
  2. Hybrid infinite scroll that eventually ends and you can select the next page
  3. Infinite scroll that keeps going
