Provide hint to create a personal access token for Git over HTTP

What does this MR do?

If internal auth is disabled and logged in user is not an LDAP user, present him with a reminder to create a personal access token to push or pull the project. Only show if user does not already have an active, non-impersonation personal access token. This is the web UI counterpart to https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/11986.

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

No.

Why was this MR needed?

Our GitLab instance is configured to use CAS authentication only; internal auth/sign-in is disabled. Our biggest support issue since we have gone into production is that users are trying to perform Git over HTTP authentication with their external credentials, rather than a personal access token. With this code change, users will have an indicator in the web UI to push them toward PAT creation.
