GitlabShell verify access sending ‘_any’ as the changes made on the git command, in those cases Gitlab::Checks::ChangeAccess won’t receive a branch_name so we don’t need to check for access to the 
protected branches on that repository. So we avoid some git operations in case the are not cached (empty_repo?) and some database lookups to get protected branches.

These request is happening in every push.

Fix an error where we were unable to create a CommitStatus for running state

Due to severe refactoring of Pipeline we introduced regression in how CommitStatus is handled. We received an report that it's impossible to create a CommitStatus with state `running` when there were not previous status. 

The support for Commit Statuses should be simplified. Right now I'm doing minimal change to move forward and fix a bug, but I'll create a new MR that will move all logic that is now part of `lib/api/commit_statuses.rb` to separate service to simplify the implementation.

This error happens due to the fact that we introduced additional status of builds: `created`.

Fix two problematic bits of code that will be deprecated or broken in Rails 5.

Found in the Rails 5 MR: !5555

These are safe to use in Rails 4.2.7 as well as Rails 5.0.0, so I figured I'd backport them for the sake of making that merge request smaller.

The explanation for the mime_types.rb code is here: https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/issues/1027#issuecomment-126543577

Only check :can_resolve permission if the note is resolvable

See merge request !6298

MySQL could not have support for millisecond precision, depends on the MySQL version 
so we just create issues in different seconds in a deterministic way

Currently this permission check incurs a significant performance hit on loading issues
where it does not make sense to check this permission in the first place.

Fix API issues sorting

## What does this MR do?

Fix the sorting of issues in the API.

## Are there points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?

Instead of removing the '_at' suffix manually, we could add those versions to the `Sortable` concern instead.

## Why was this MR needed?

There were a couple of bugs:

* The global and project-specific issues endpoints wouldn't sort at all.
* Group sorting would work, but only if you applied two undocumented workarounds:
  * Always pass both `order_by` and `sort` (both are optional, so only one should be needed to change ordering).
  * Instead of passing `created_at` or `updated_at`, you needed to pass `created` or `updated`.

This makes the API implementation match the docs.

Also streamline the sorting part while we're at it.

That being done, there's currently a duplication between
`GET /projects/search/:query` and `GET /projects?search=:search`
so we might want to keep only the latter for 9.0...
