Save repository object format on project creation

Vasilii Iakliushin requested to merge 419887_store_repository_object_format_in_database into master

What does this MR do and why?

Contributes to #419887 (closed)

Problem

In previous MR !136819 (merged) we extended project_repositories table with a new field object_format to keep the type of the repository (sha1 or sha256). But this field isn't populated in the application code yet.

Solution

Populate the field with a object_format value from Gitaly on project's creation.

How to set up and validate locally

  1. Enable feature flag Feature.enable(:support_sha256_repositories)
  2. Enable feature flag Feature.enable(:store_object_format)
  3. Visit create new project page (http://127.0.0.1:3000/projects/new)
  4. Select Create blank project
  5. Check Use SHA-256 for repository hashing algorithm checkbox
  6. Provide project name and group
  7. Click Create project button
  8. The project should be successfully created
  9. In Rails console: Project.last.project_repository.object_format should return sha256
