Draft: Consolidate showing cost factored storage size on project storage

Ammar Alakkad requested to merge 433516-cleanup-display-cost-factored-storage-size-feature-flag into master

What does this MR do and why?

Show cost factored storage size on project storage

A cost factor is applied to the storage consumed by project forks so that forks consume less namespace storage than their actual size

Docs: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/usage_quotas.html#view-project-fork-storage-usage

Screenshots or screen recordings

No visual change.

How to set up and validate locally

  1. As root, navigate to /admin/application_settings/namespace_storage and set the cost factor to something less than 1 (e.g. 0.3) and save
  2. In local gitlab, fork a public project to a private fork
  3. Navigate to the forked project > Settings > Usage Quotas
  4. Observe the storage size displayed is less than original repo's storage
  5. Try disable the feature flag in step 1 and refresh the page, the storage size in the forked project should match the original repo
