Adding a spec for documenting the delete post API endpoint for our api
docs. As part of this added detailed info for the `force_destroy`
parameter for permanently deleting a post.
Tests fail in Ruby 3.0 and later due to separation of positional and
keyword arguments. RSpec treats the hash at the end of include_examples
as keyword arguments when it should be passed as a positional argument.

This allows authenticators to instruct the Auth::Result to override attributes without using the general site settings. This provides an easy migration path for auth plugins which offer their own "overrides email", "overrides username" or "overrides name" settings. With this new api, they can set `overrides_*` on the result object, and the attribute will be overriden regardless of the general site setting.
ManagedAuthenticator is updated to use this new API. Plugins which consume ManagedAuthenticator will instantly take advantage of this change.
This commit adds API documentation for the new upload
endpoints related to direct + multipart external uploads.
Also included is a rake task which watches the files in
the spec/requests/api directory and calls a script file
(spec/regenerate_swagger_docs) whenever one changes. This
script runs rake rswag:specs:swaggerize and then copies
the openapi.yml file over to the discourse_api_docs repo
directory, and hits a script there to convert the YML to
JSON so the API docs are refreshed while the server is
still running. This makes the loop of making a doc change
and seeing it in the local server much faster.
The rake task is rake autospec:swagger
* FEATURE: hide_email_address_taken forces use of email in forgot password form
This strengthens this site setting which is meant to be used to harden sites
that are experiencing abuse on forgot password routes.
Previously we would only deny letting people know if forgot password worked on not
New change also bans usage of username for forgot password when enabled
Discourse sent only translation overrides for the current language to the client instead of sending overrides from fallback locales as well. This especially impacted en_GB -> en since most overrides would be done in English instead of English (UK).
This also adds lots of tests for previously untested code.
There's a small caveat: The client currently doesn't handle fallback locales for MessageFormat strings. That is why overrides for those strings always have a higher priority than regular translations. So, as an example, the lookup order for MessageFormat strings in German is:
1. override for de
2. override for en
3. value from de
4. value from en
Some time ago, we made this fix to external authentication – https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/13706. We didn't address Discourse Connect (https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourseconnect-official-single-sign-on-for-discourse-sso/13045) at that moment, so I wanted to fix it for Discourse Connect as well.
Turned out though that Discourse Connect doesn't contain this problem and already handles staged users correctly. This PR adds tests that confirm it. Also, I've extracted two functions in Discourse Connect implementation along the way and decided to merge this refactoring too (the refactoring is supported with tests).
A plugin API that allows customizing existing topic-backed static pages, like:
faq, tos, privacy (see: StaticController) The block passed to this
method has to return a SiteSetting name that contains a topic id.
```
add_topic_static_page("faq") do |controller|
current_user&.locale == "pl" ? "polish_faq_topic_id" : "faq_topic_id"
end
```
You can also add new pages in a plugin, but remember to add a route,
for example:
```
get "contact" => "static#show", id: "contact"
```
We can fake redis transactions so that `fab!` works for redis and PG
data, but it's too slow to be used indiscriminately. Instead, you can
opt into it with the `use_redis_snapshotting` helper.
Insofar as snapshotting allows us to `fab!` more things, it provides a
speedup.
This commit introduces a new site setting "google_oauth2_hd_groups". If enabled, group information will be fetched from Google during authentication, and stored in the Discourse database. These 'associated groups' can be connected to a Discourse group via the "Membership" tab of the group preferences UI.
The majority of the implementation is generic, so we will be able to add support to more authentication methods in the near future.

We don't need it anymore. Actually, I removed using of it on the client side a long time ago, when I was working on improving blank page syndrome on user activity pages (see https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/14311).
This PR also removes some old resource strings that we don't use anymore. We have new strings for blank pages.
Documenting the `/u/:username:/emails.json` endpoint.
Also removing some email fields from user api responses because they
aren't actually included in the response unless you are querying
yourself.
When redirecting to login, we store a destination_url cookie, which the user is then redirected to after login. We never want the user to be redirected to a JSON URL. Instead, we should return a 403 in these situations.
This should also be much less confusing for API consumers - a 403 is a better representation than a 302.

`auto_update` is true by default at the database level, but it doesn't make sense for `auto_update` to be true on themes that are not imported from a Git repository.
Under some conditions, these varied responses could lead to cache poisoning, hence the 'security' label.
Previously the Rails application would serve JSON data in place of HTML whenever Ember CLI requested an `application.html.erb`-rendered page. This commit removes that logic, and instead parses the HTML out of the standard response. This means that Rails doesn't need to customize its response for Ember CLI.
Recently, the wrong new behavior appeared – we started to suggest to invited users usernames like "user1".
To reproduce:
1. Create an invitation with default settings, do not restrict it to email
2. Copy an invitation link and follow it in incognito mode
See username already filled, with eg “user1”. See screenshot. Should be empty.
This bug was very likely introduced by my recent changes to UserNameSuggester.
We have a couple of site setting, `slow_down_crawler_user_agents` and `slow_down_crawler_rate`, that are meant to allow site owners to signal to specific crawlers that they're crawling the site too aggressively and that they should slow down.
When a crawler is added to the `slow_down_crawler_user_agents` setting, Discourse currently adds a `Crawl-delay` directive for that crawler in `/robots.txt`. Unfortunately, many crawlers don't support the `Crawl-delay` directive in `/robots.txt` which leaves the site owners no options if a crawler is crawling the site too aggressively.
This PR replaces the `Crawl-delay` directive with proper rate limiting for crawlers added to the `slow_down_crawler_user_agents` list. On every request made by a non-logged in user, Discourse will check the User Agent string and if it contains one of the values of the `slow_down_crawler_user_agents` list, Discourse will only allow 1 request every N seconds for that User Agent (N is the value of the `slow_down_crawler_rate` setting) and the rest of requests made within the same interval will get a 429 response.
The `slow_down_crawler_user_agents` setting becomes quite dangerous with this PR since it could rate limit lots if not all of anonymous traffic if the setting is not used appropriately. So to protect against this scenario, we've added a couple of new validations to the setting when it's changed:
1) each value added to setting must 3 characters or longer
2) each value cannot be a substring of tokens found in popular browser User Agent. The current list of prohibited values is: apple, windows, linux, ubuntu, gecko, firefox, chrome, safari, applewebkit, webkit, mozilla, macintosh, khtml, intel, osx, os x, iphone, ipad and mac.
Currently when a user creates posts that are moderated (for whatever
reason), a popup is displayed saying the post needs approval and the
total number of the user’s pending posts. But then this piece of
information is kind of lost and there is nowhere for the user to know
what are their pending posts or how many there are.
This patch solves this issue by adding a new “Pending” section to the
user’s activity page when there are some pending posts to display. When
there are none, then the “Pending” section isn’t displayed at all.

This commit adds token_hash and scopes columns to email_tokens table.
token_hash is a replacement for the token column to avoid storing email
tokens in plaintext as it can pose a security risk. The new scope column
ensures that email tokens cannot be used to perform a different action
than the one intended.
To sum up, this commit:
* Adds token_hash and scope to email_tokens
* Reuses code that schedules critical_user_email
* Refactors EmailToken.confirm and EmailToken.atomic_confirm methods
* Periodically cleans old, unconfirmed or expired email tokens
This commit refactors the direct external upload routes (get presigned
put, complete external, create/abort/complete multipart) into a
helper which is then included in both BackupController and the
UploadController. This is done so UploadController doesn't need
strange backup logic added to it, and so each controller implementing
this helper can do their own validation/error handling nicely.
This is a follow up to e4350bb96648622b73414712588ffc015e193562
