Add config parameter to make new groups by default visible to all

Browse Source 
Add a new Gerrit configuration parameter that controls whether newly
created groups should be by default visible to all registered users.

Groups that are visible to all registered users have the advantage that
people who want to become member of a group can see whom they need to
contact without bothering the Gerrit administrators with this. This is
why for some Gerrit installations by default all newly created groups
should be visible to all registered users. Users creating new groups
often forget to set the visibleToAll flag which is why having the
possibility to configure the default for a Gerrit server makes sense.
Group owners can still unset this flag if they don't want their group
to be visible to all registered users.
