Restrict access to jobs that use `CI_DEBUG_TRACE=True`

What does this MR do?

This Merge Request restricts access to the job logs if the user is not a project developer and the ci_debug_trace variable is set to true(any place where the CI_DEBUG_VARIABLE can be set on the gitlab side i.e. ci yaml files or database). For the job show page, it shows a flash message that explains that the user is unauthorized. For the raw trace, it renders the unauthorized page and for the API it sends back a 403 response.

It is not necessary to limit access to every place where read_build is used because only the build trace is sensitive information. See the discussion on the issue:
