Draft: Add gitlab secret detection gem
What does this MR do and why?
To perform regex matching on git blobs that may include secrets, we plan to create a small Ruby library/gem that will be included as a dependency in GitLab main codebase (gitlab-org/gitlab). This dependency will accept one or more git blobs, match them against a defined ruleset of regular expressions (based on gitleaks.toml used by secrets analyzer), and return scan results.
Screenshots or screen recordings
Screenshots are required for UI changes, and strongly recommended for all other merge requests.
