Subject: Added Gitlab::SQL::Union class

This class can be used to join multiple AcitveRecord::Relation objects
together using a SQL UNION statement. ActiveRecord < 5.0 sadly doesn't
support UNION and existing Gems out there don't handle prepared
statements (e.g. they never incremented the variable bindings).
