Allow a member to have an access level equal to parent groupsh-allow-equal-level-in-subgroup-membership

Suppose you have this configuration:

1. Subgroup `hello/world`
2. Subgroup `hello/mergers`.
3. Project `hello/world/my-project` has invited group `hello/world` to
access protected branches.
4. The rule allows the group to merge but no one can push.
5. User `newuser` has Owner access to the parent group `hello`.

Previously, there was no way for the user `newuser` to be added to the
`hello/mergers` group since the validation only allowed a user to be
added at a higher access level.

Since membership in a subgroup confers certain access rights, such as
being able to merge or push code to protected branches, we have to
loosen the validation and allow someone to be added at an equal level
granted by the parent group.
