This PR fixes an issue where GitHub's secondary rate limits, which return a 403 Forbidden status, were not properly handled during commit context blame fetching. Previously, these unhandled 403s would propagate and create false-positive Sentry issues.

The change introduces logic to detect 403 responses from GitHub that specifically indicate a "secondary rate limit". When detected, these errors are now re-raised as ApiRateLimitedError. This allows the existing CommitContextIntegration to properly catch and handle them as rate-limit events, halting the integration lifecycle gracefully and preventing the creation of unnecessary Sentry issues.

A new test case has been added to ensure this specific scenario is correctly handled.

Legal Boilerplate

Look, I get it. The entity doing business as "Sentry" was incorporated in the State of Delaware in 2015 as Functional Software, Inc. and is gonna need some rights from me in order to utilize my contributions in this here PR. So here's the deal: I retain all rights, title and interest in and to my contributions, and by keeping this boilerplate intact I confirm that Sentry can use, modify, copy, and redistribute my contributions, under Sentry's choice of terms.
