This reverts merge request !144224

This fixes a few bugs in the hiredis-client, which we don't use, and
freezes the command prelude
(https://github.com/redis-rb/redis-client/pull/173). The latter
prevents an issue we found with the Peek adapter mutating the AUTH
password
(https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/scalability/-/issues/2826)
after the upgrade to the redis v5 gem. That issue has since been fixed
with https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/144388.

Changelog: changed

Add cssbundling-rails and remove sassc-rails from the GitLab project.

`cssbundling-rails` enhances `assets:precompile` to invoke `yarn
build:css`. Ran the setup command for `cssbundling-rails

Added a rudimentary `build-css` script to compile assets using Dart Sass
NodeJS

because `sassc-rails` is not being used, we have to load
`sprockets/railtie` ourselves

These updates allow the `License` model to successfully

from the restricted attributes
