Mock observers globally in Jest

What does this MR do?

As JSDom is missing global mocks for Observers, we currently need to mock observers manually in any spec that might use them under the hood.

Our existing mocks are only working on one instance of observers each, so we have refactored them to work on multiple instances as well.

In order to improve the performance on tests where the Observers aren't tested, we add a NoopObserver to JSDom.

As an aside, JSDom actually implements a MutationObserver, so no need to mock it!

We do this, because once we remove our ResizeObserver polyfill from GitLab UI, we would be running into trouble otherwise!
