Bug 1770496: Validate access for member to a public group

When site public pages are turned off.

If the user is a member of a group that has 'public' access and the
site 'Allow public pages' are turned off, the user should be able to
view the group's home page - therefore allowing them to paginate
through the "Group portfolios" block in the group home page.

Bug description:
  When the following settings are being used:

  1) Site options -> General settings -> Allow public pages = false
  2) Group settings -> Publicly viewable group = true
  3) Group has a bunch of pages so that the "Group portfolios" block has pagination happening

  If a normal group member goes to the group homepage and tries to
  paginate through "Group portfolios" they get an 'Access denied' error.

  Public profile pages do ignore the 'allow public pages' switch when
  'false' - as that switch is only meant for portfolio pages and not
  special pages.

  As the group home page is also a special page it also needs to be
  respected as such.
