CI: Add 'triggers' keyword to 'only' and 'except' lists to allow control over when triggers cause builds to run
Currently, the `only` and `except` keywords in `.gitlab-ci.yml` only accept ref names or the special `branches` and `tags` keywords. However, these are primarily useful when controlling how repository activity affects the creation of builds. In my case, instead of building on every commit, I'd like to use the following logic:
- If the repository is tagged, do a build.
- Any other normal commits should not cause a build.
- If a build is triggered via the API, always create one for the specified ref.
From what I can tell, this isn't possible via the existing YAML syntax. In this MR, I introduce a new keyword `triggers` that goes along with `branches` and `tags`. I can implement the logic above using the following job configuration:
```yaml
only:
- tags
- triggers
```
I updated the tests and documentation to reflect this and everything seems to pass.

This allows to reuse one job as a template for another one:
```
job1: &JOBTMPL
script: execute-script-for-job
job2: *JOBTMPL
```
This also helps to solve some of the issues in #342

Enable rubocop metrics
This enables rubocop metrics like CyclomaticComplexity and ABCSize.
Initial threshold values are high, should be probably decreased.
