Bug description
HI,
we have created several user groups and had to rename one of them. that worked fine.
But when we edit a user and want to add/remove him to a group - or when we go to apps and limit an app to a specific user group - then those selections / dropdowns still show the old name. - it looks like renaming does not rename all the instances of the group-name. at some places the old name is still used and referenced.
Steps to reproduce
quite a long time ago that we renamed it and just stumbled across the problem.
so i guess it works like this
- create a user group
- rename it
- assign it to a user - you will find the old name.
Expected behavior
new name should be used everywhere.
Nextcloud Server version

Research direction
Reproduce this on Nextcloud Server 32 by creating, renaming, and then assigning a user group, including through app-restriction selections. Start with the user-edit and app-group dropdown entry points; done means the renamed group appears consistently and the old name no longer appears after the rename.
