What does this MR do and why?

For 17.0, GitLab updated its security analyzers such that Kotlin and Scala went from SpotBugs to SemGrep. in a subsequent MR, !152876 (merged), SpotBugs was disabled for Kotlin and Scala.

This was done for both the normal template, and the .latest template. However the .latest template runs the pipeline on both MR pipelines and branch pipelines, and for this template the changes were only applied to branch pipelines. Therefore, SpotBugs still runs in MR pipelines. This seems like an accident to me given that no discussion around this removal seems to talk about SpotBugs still running in MR pipelines.
