Batch loading of open issues count from Redis

Heinrich Lee Yu requested to merge 220320-use-mget-for-open-issues-count into master

What does this MR do?

For API endpoints that have a list of projects, we batch the fetching of open issue counts using MGET to reduce Redis calls.

This reuses the approach used in !35328 (merged) for the forks count and adds some improvements

How to setup and validate locally (strongly suggested)

  1. Add a request to the projects API localhost:3000/api/v4/projects to the performance bar
  2. Look at the Redis calls

You should see the N+1 for open_issues_count being replaced by a single MGET call.
