Add Object permissions to project and allow set add_check globally or per-project

[mchehab]

Currently, patchwork doesn't allow granting permissions to add_checks without promoting an user to superuser.

This patch series:

• add a button at project admin, allowing to select per-project add_check permissions;
• change the logic which accepts adding check to use either a global add_check permission or per project, per-user permission;
• now, having a maintainer status is orthogonal to add CI checks: maintainers that need to also update CI need to be granted with CI add checks permission.

@mchehab Could you propose these against the main branch and I'll backport them myself?

Done. I'll keept django-guardian~=3.3.1 dependency, but feel free to use a newer one if you prefer.
I will dropped one patch (4e3d25d), which is not seem to be doing any difference.

Thanks for changing the baseline. My user were unable to change the baseline indication at the PR.

[mchehab]

hmm... this one requires more work... it actually added "add <project>" instead of "add <checks>"

[mchehab]

I changed this one to RFC, as some work is still needed to be able to have per-project permissions.

[mchehab]

Ah, the patch I dropped made some difference (or perhaps a re-run on manage.py migrate).

It is now shown:

so, besides add/change/delete/view project, there is an "add checks" over there.

Tests with https://github.com/mchehab/pw_tools:

User without global "add_check" permission:

$ ./pw-checks.py -p local set 20260606114703.5-1-ruoyuw560@gmail.com foo warning "" "No link"
ERROR: 147247: foo failed to set 'warning': 403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/patches/147247/checks/

After granting patchwork | checks | add_check at Users admin:

$ ./pw-checks.py -p local set 20260606114703.5-1-ruoyuw560@gmail.com foo1 warning "" "No link"
INFO: 147247: foo1 set to 'warning'

After removing patchwork | checks | add_check at Users admin:

$ ./pw-checks.py -p local set 20260606114703.5-1-ruoyuw560@gmail.com foo4 warning "" "No link"
ERROR: 147247: foo4 failed to set 'warning': 403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/patches/147247/checks/

After granding Projects -> <project_name> -> <Object permissions> add_check permission:

 $ ./pw-checks.py -p local set 20260606114703.5-1-ruoyuw560@gmail.com foo4 warning "" "No link"
INFO: 147247: foo4 set to 'warning'

In summary, both coarse grained and fine grained add_check permission worked.
