Pass `caller_id` to `AuthorizedProjectUpdate::UserRefreshFromReplicaWorker`

Manoj M J requested to merge mmj-use-related-class into master

What does this MR do?

We previously tried to pass the current meta.caller_id attribute from the context of AuthorizedProjectUpdate::UserRefreshFromReplicaWorker, down the stack to a newly enqueued AuthorizedProjectUpdate::UserRefreshWithLowUrgencyWorker job over here, but it did not give us the intended result.

This was because as soon as we enter AuthorizedProjectUpdate::UserRefreshFromReplicaWorker, caller_id is set to its own class name, ie, AuthorizedProjectUpdate::UserRefreshFromReplicaWorker in the context (source), so there is no way as of now to obtain the data of the original caller via Labkit over here.

The way to solve this now appears to be to pass the meta.caller_id as meta.related_class down the stack right from the point of origin of the first job, ie when AuthorizedProjectUpdate::UserRefreshFromReplicaWorker is enqueued (which is at UserProjectAccessChangedService), which is what this MR does.

Not adding a changelog because this behaviour is used at a place which is currently behind a feature flag (user_refresh_from_replica_worker_uses_replica_db) and this flag is currently disabled in production.
