repogroups: fix private repo recursion check

The purpose of this check is to ensure that we don't recursively assign
"default" user perms for a repo with the "private" flag set (because in
that case, the "default" user perms should always be "no access").

(The check, and this fix, is of course only applicable to Kallithea
instances that have anonymous access enabled to begin with.)

However, the check was only functional if the user was specified as a
username. This is apparently always the case when Kallithea is running,
but was not e.g. the case in the test suite, which consistently passed
a user ID instead of a username.

This commit ensures that the user is always resolved before the check is
made. There's no significant overhead to this, as the code immediately
calls RepoModel().grant_user_permission, which resolved the user anyway.
This change just moves the database lookup a bit earlier.

Fixing this revealed the matching test case to be broken, so it has been
fixed as well.

Down the road, we should eliminate Kallithea's bizarre practice of
passing around usernames and user IDs, in favor of passing actual User
objects. That'll get rid of mistakes like these, as well as repeated
needless database lookups.
.. _statistics:

=====================
Repository statistics
=====================

Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the
repository ``Settings`` page.

The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.

When Celery is disabled:

  On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
  added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
  visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.

  Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
  repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
  updating its statistics cache.

When Celery is enabled:

  On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
  execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until
  all commits are parsed. Each task parses 250 commits, then launches a new
  task.
