### Summary
Files in `pages_deployments` are not deleted on disk when `deactivated_pages_deployments_delete_cron_worker` runs
### Steps to reproduce
- Set up a project with GitLab Pages and a `pages` job. The artifact expiration can be set to e.g. 4h, but this does not seem to be relevant to the problem at hand.
- Run a pipeline which triggers the `pages` and subsequently `pages:deploy` job. The `artifacts.zip` file is stored on the GitLab server in a subdirectory similar to `/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/pages/@hashed/94/18/94184e731aff5bdc5541709117eeaa5f235b4f1ef214d8e18be1ca02904b6d92/pages_deployments/6500`. This also creates a record in the `pages_deployments` table in the GitLab database.
- Run a pipeline which triggers the same CI jobs. The previous `pages_deployments` job is then marked as `deleted_at` 30 minutes after the job completion.
### Example Project
N/A; seeing this on an on-premise GitLab instance.
### What is the current *bug* behavior?
30-40 minutes after the new job has executed, the `deactivated_pages_deployments_delete_cron_worker` cron job deletes the `pages_deployments` record, but the associated `artifacts.zip` file remains on disk.
### What is the expected *correct* behavior?
30-40 minutes after the new job has executed, the `deactivated_pages_deployments_delete_cron_worker` cron job should delete both the `pages_deployments` record and the associated `artifacts.zip` file on disk.
### Relevant logs and/or screenshots
#### Background
We have been seeing a large, linear increase in disk usage on our GitLab instance lately, which caused alerts in our monitoring to be fired, which is why we started investigating this. Here is the `/var/opt/gitlab` volume usage over time (`/var/opt/gitlab/backups` is on a separate volume):

Interestingly enough, the beginning of this problem closely coincides with our upgrade to GitLab 16.5.1. Quoting `/var/log/apt/history.log`:
```
Start-Date: 2023-11-01 08:24:12
Commandline: apt-get dist-upgrade
Requested-By: slovdahl (1001)
Upgrade: gitlab-ee:amd64 (16.4.1-ee.0, 16.5.1-ee.0)
End-Date: 2023-11-01 08:31:10
```
I saw that the `/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/pages` directory was using about 72GB on disk. By looking at historical data from our backups, we concluded that the `pages.tar.gz` (which is the backup representation of this directory) was as small as 1.2GB some week before the upgrade. We hadn't done any GitLab Pages-related changes during this period that I was aware of.
We also saw that directories created before the upgrade (`6398` and `6399`) were very small. The `6400` directory was created some hour(s) before the upgrade, and seemed much bigger than the other ones. All directories from `6401` and onwards are in the size around 621MB.
```
root@git:/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/pages/@hashed/94/18/94184e731aff5bdc5541709117eeaa5f235b4f1ef214d8e18be1ca02904b6d92/pages_deployments# du -csh 6398 6399 6400 6401
4.0K 6398
4.0K 6399
582M 6400
621M 6401
1.2G total
```
(It turned out that these directories like `6398` and `6399` are completely empty; they do not contain any `artifacts.zip` files. `6400` and `6401` contains `artifacts.zip` files, despite these pages deployments being superseded a long time ago.)
To make a long story short, I've debugged this thoroughly, and also gotten some feedback from a GitLab Support Engineer in [this ZenDesk issue](https://support.gitlab.com/hc/requests/472649) (GitLab internal link), and I believe I finally found the problem. The ZenDesk issue contains more details about the initial steps of the debugging, but I'll try to summarize the most important parts from the final steps below :point_down:.
**TL;DR**: I believe https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/132252 breaks the deletion of `artifacts.zip` files on disk. Here's how I came to that conclusion:
#### Disabling the "new" cleanup worker
I wanted to disable the `deactivated_pages_deployments_delete_cron_worker` job, so I could more freely experiment with this in the Rails console.
(The first disabling of `geo_sidekiq_cron_config_worker` is to workaround https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/37135, since it would otherwise automatically reenable the `deactivated_pages_deployments_delete_cron_worker` job every minute, which would interfere with the debugging.)
```ruby
irb(main):012:0> Sidekiq::Cron::Job.all.select{ |j| j.name.match("geo_sidekiq_cron_config_worker") }.first.disable!
=> 130
irb(main):007:0> Sidekiq::Cron::Job.all.select{ |j| j.name.match("deactivated_pages_deployments_delete_cron_worker") }.first.disable!
=> 148
```
#### Running the "old" cleanup code manually in the Rails Console
I then copied the code from `DestroyPagesDeploymentsWorker` and `DestroyDeploymentsService`, together with some reading of https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/132252/diffs#diff-content-8a06cb93c04104b1d8123d6ba53a385f66716eee to understand what `PagesDeployment` ID to pass in to the `older_than()` method. I ran this manually in the Rails Console:
```ruby
irb(main):018:0> project = Project.find_by_id(2)
=> #<Project id:2 hiboxsystems/hiboxcentre>>
irb(main):019:0> project.pages_deployments

The files on disk right at this stage, **before** running the actual cleanup:
```shell

```
Then running the "old" cleanup code:
```ruby
irb(main):025:0> deployments_to_destroy.find_each(&:destroy)
=> nil
```
This time, the `artifacts.zip` file for `pages_deployment` with ID `6547` was indeed deleted on disk:
```shell
root@git:/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/pages/@hashed/94/18/94184e731aff5bdc5541709117eeaa5f235b4f1ef214d8e18be1ca02904b6d92/pages_deployments# ls -la 6547

```
...and re-requerying the project in the Rails console indicated that the `pages_deployments` record with ID `6547` was now gone:
```ruby
irb(main):027:0> project = Project.find_by_id(2)

```
#### Running the "new" cleanup code manually in the Rails Console
Then, recreating a new Pages deployment in CI (to have a new `PagesDeployment`/`pages_deployments` record in the DB), and running the logic from the "new" cleanup job (`deactivated_pages_deployments_delete_cron_worker`, `Pages::DeactivatedDeploymentsDeleteCronWorker` - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/132252/diffs#diff-content-02cbf9a17f7a5e844395311a56163170b65b6d7d). Here are the files on disk **before** running the cleanup:
```shell
root@git:/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/pages/@hashed/94/18/94184e731aff5bdc5541709117eeaa5f235b4f1ef214d8e18be1ca02904b6d92/pages_deployments# ls -la 6548

And here's what the `PagesDeployment` records looked like:

The `PagesDeployment.deactivated` data before the cleanup:

```
Then running the "new" cleanup code, and looking at the `PagesDeployment.deactivated` data afterwards:
```ruby
irb(main):032:1* PagesDeployment.deactivated.each_batch do |deployments|
irb(main):033:1* deployments.delete_all
irb(main):034:0> end
=> nil
irb(main):035:0> PagesDeployment.deactivated
=> []
```
The file on disk is still retained, however. **This is the incorrect behavior**; the file is expected to be deleted at this point.

#### Modifying the "new" cleanup code to use the `find_each(&:destroy)` approach
I then tried a new approach: modify the "new cleanup code" to use the `find_each(&:destroy)` approach instead of `delete_all`. But first I had to generate a new `artifacts.zip` file again, re-running the `pages` CI job once more. This time, `PagesDeployment.deactivated` was empty, to my surprise:
```ruby
irb(main):007:0> PagesDeployment.deactivated
=> []
```
...because the `deleted_at` timestamp for ID `6549` has not yet passed (it's deleted 30 minutes after the new CI job is created, per the `Projects::UpdatePagesService::OLD_DEPLOYMENTS_DESTRUCTION_DELAY` setting - the `deleted_at` value below, 09:12:09). Local time at the time of writing was 11:06 +02:00, so 09:06 UTC.
```ruby
irb(main):009:0> project = Project.find_by_id(2)

I updated the `deleted_at` for the `PagesDeployment` record manually, which would make it be included in the `PagesDeployment.deactivated` data:

Files on disk **before** the cleanup (note, not _immediately_ before since I forgot to run it, so this is from slightly earlier today):
```shell

Running the "modified new cleanup" code:
```ruby
irb(main):020:1* PagesDeployment.deactivated.each_batch do |deployments|
irb(main):021:1* deployments.find_each(&:destroy)
irb(main):022:0> end
=> nil
irb(main):023:0> PagesDeployment.deactivated
=> []
```
Looking at the filesystem after the cleanup indicates that this **does indeed** seem to fix the problem. The file on disk is now properly deleted, as it ought to be:
```shell
root@git:/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/pages/@hashed/94/18/94184e731aff5bdc5541709117eeaa5f235b4f1ef214d8e18be1ca02904b6d92/pages_deployments# ls -la 6549

Based on this, I have created an MR suggesting this fix to be merged into GitLab, for further discussion if this is indeed the right thing or not: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/137645
