Authorizing DrupalPod with git.drupalcode.org fails silently for new users

Problem/Motivation

I'm at DrupalCon Portland2024 and I'm seeing this problem happening with (almost) all new contributors. Launching DrupalPod fails silently when trying to authenticate with git.DrupalCode.org

Steps to reproduce

0. Log into a new(ish) Drupal.org user account
1. Launch GitPod from any issue
2. You will need to log into GitPod (it might not matter which option you choose, I've seen most people log in with GitHub)
3. You'll see this warning message that you need to authenticate with git.DrupalCode.org

4. Then you'll see a pop-up where you agree to the data being shared

When you click "Authorize" the pop-up will close, but nothing else will happen, the warning message from the original screenshot is still there. It's failed silently.

This problem seems to occur when any of the following conditions exist:
* The user is not confirmed β†’ .
* The user has never visited https://git.drupalcode.org and thus has never accepted the TOS there.
* The user's account has been marked as a spammer (incorrectly?) and a higher-level d.o admin needs to unmark them.

Proposed resolution

???
Maybe show an error message describing the above 3 scenarios.

Remaining tasks

???

API changes

???

Data model changes

???
