Immediately using #from here requires a lot of changes in
other finders (e.g. IssuableFinder, TodosFinder). In all places where we
use #merge, this goes completely the wrong way when passed in a relation
that was built with `#from(...)`: The original query's FROM part gets
completely replaced.

This avoids changing all other places and focuses on improving
SnippetFinder with the downside of two (small) codepaths to do the same
thing.

This helps with queries that get project ids based on the - comparably
rare - visibility levels 10 and 20. For these, postgres can now leverage
the partial index for a index-only scan to improve performance.

Example queries:
SELECT id FROM projects WHERE visibility_level IN (10,20)
SELECT id FROM projects WHERE visibility_level IN (10)

For MySQL, this results in a full index on id because MySQL omits the
WHERE clause. That is, the index is a duplicate of the primary key
basically.

Move spinach project network graph tests to RSpec

Remove unecessary validate: true from belongs_to :project

See merge request gitlab-org/gitlab-ce!17166

Remove graphs_show.js webpack bundle

See merge request gitlab-org/gitlab-ce!17194

This does not seem to serve any clear purpose and causes other issues (see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/43196#note_59275652)

Remove extraneous tests from Issues API spec

These were all testing an implementation detail of
`Issues::UpdateService` which is already well-tested and doesn't need to
be re-tested here.

Fix and simplify end-to-end tests for secret variables

Closes gitlab-qa#190

See merge request gitlab-org/gitlab-ce!17173

Flipper already takes care of flushing cache entries when
enabling/disabling features so it should be safe to increase the TTL.
This in turn should drastically reduce the number of Flipper queries
executed.
