Resolve "Wrong sorting of commit order in MR view?"

!4052 fixed this for the most obvious cases, but there were still some problems.

Here's my test case: I have a branch where I was suffering from an unfortunate
issue. Every other commit I made had its commit date set to one day before it
should have been. (Perhaps my system clock was misbehaving.)

```shell
for i in {1..10}
do
  echo $i > $i
  git add $i
  GIT_COMMITTER_DATE=`date -v -$((i % 2))d` git commit -m $i
done
```

The git CLI still gives me the commits in the right order, but I can see that
the timestamps alternate between two values:

```shell
$ git log --format='%h %ct %p %s' master...HEAD
f0c3108 1463646313 3d38a13 10
3d38a13 1463559913 67f419b 9
67f419b 1463646313 74330c0 8
74330c0 1463559913 56361d7 7
56361d7 1463646313 ba1b60c 6
ba1b60c 1463559913 f91497d 5
f91497d 1463646313 79c5e57 4
79c5e57 1463559913 b953cef 3
b953cef 1463646313 12fc411 2
12fc411 1463559913 835715b 1
```

Unfortunately, GitLab didn't like this _at all_. Here's what the commits on my
MR from that branch looked like:
![image](/uploads/fdc38e932eeedcb77de9ec4b50ad1476/image.png)

That's because we were sorting the commits by date, which is safe if they are in
that order anyway. If they aren't, then because Ruby's sorting isn't stable, we
lose even the ordering among the correctly-ordered commits with the same
timestamp.

After these changes (and reloading the MR's diff), this looks like:
![image](/uploads/b09fb0f51359c1c89484e713e859512b/image.png)

The commits view was also wrong, but in a slightly different way. In table form:

| View | Before | After |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Commit list | 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, 9, 7, 5, 3, 1 | 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 |
| MR commits | 10, 2, 8, 4, 6, 5, 7, 3, 9, 1 | 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 |

Fixed advice on invalid permissions on upload path

When running the checks, my upload path has wrong permissions, the advice could not fix it because it does not change the permission of this directory (only sub-directories).
```
Uploads directory setup correctly? ... no
  Try fixing it:
  sudo find /home/git/gitlab/public/uploads -type d -not -path /home/git/gitlab/public/uploads -exec chmod 0700 {} \;
  For more information see:
  doc/install/installation.md in section "GitLab"
  Please fix the error above and rerun the checks.
```

Executing this instead fixed the error :
```
sudo chmod 700 /home/git/gitlab/public/uploads
```

It's possible to construct a commit graph where the output of `git log`
isn't in timestamp order. Grouping the commits in the list by date then
gives dramatically wrong results. Instead, go for the more pragmatic
approach: use the commits in the order they're given, and just show the
date line each time the date changes. This means that the same date
header can show up multiple times, but at least the ordering is
preserved.

fix #15127 ActiveJob::DeserializationError thrown

`send_devise_notification` pre-maturely enqueued the task when the user instance
has not yet been committed into the database, causing a record-not-found in the
other sidekiq process.

`devise-async` has already been taking care of asynchronous mail sending, we just
need to run it inside queue `mailers` instead of `mailer` to enable it.

The implementation of `devise-async` enqueues the task in `after_commit` hook
which is the right way to do it.
