Create a github team in an org and run cargo owners --add github:org:team to add the team as an owner of the crate.
Delete the team in github and recreate it with the same name. This should give the team a new github ID.
Attempt to add the team to a different crate, issuing the same cargo owners --add github:org:team command.
Crates.io will return a uniqueness constraint violation because we enforce unique team names.
If we get the same ID but a different name, we upsert and update the name. But we aren't doing that for teams. I think as long as the org's github id is the same (that is, the entire organization hasn't been deleted and recreated), it isn't a security problem if we update the team ID when the names are the same (as it indicates the same organization has deleted and recreated the team).

Ah. Hm. I think I noticed this while working on #7051 and then I dismissed it because, surely, if it was an issue, it'd have already been noticed, so it can't be that big a deal. Whoops.
The consensus there was that the status quo is not a security issue because we're reusing the org ID rather than the name, yep. But it's still a usability issue of not being able to reuse org names.
Related but slightly distinct:
