Draft: Direct user with only subgroup access

Alex Pooley requested to merge ap-group-or-subgroup into master

What does this MR do and why?

A possible solution for #351378 (comment 1853196922)

When a user logs in through SAML they're directed to their root group. Sometimes a user has access to a sub-group and not the root group. In this case they receive a 404 which is confusing.

This MR changes the behavior in this case to return a HTTP 403 (access denied) with a message on the 403 page to view their groups dashboard.

Note: The MR does not limit the behavior to SAML users.
