Expand redacting search to include non ES results

Dmitry Gruzd requested to merge 36438-expand-redacting-logic into master

What does this MR do?

This is an MR moved from a security project https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security/gitlab/-/merge_requests/227 because this is not a security vulnerability and because we don't need backports.

We extend redacted_search_results feature to postgres and gitaly searches.

Before showing search results we check if user has read access to every object. If user doesn't have a valid access, we filter out these results and log that for debugging and alerting purposes.
