Navigation to subcategories page was possible through the category drop
and the "view all" link or through the category drop from the categories
page. This commit removes the latter method.
Follow up to commit 77b032c2b5.
When "unicode_usernames" is enabled, calling the "user_path" helper with a username containing some non ASCII character will break due to the route constraint we have on username.
This fixes the issue by always encoding the username before passing it to the "user_path" helper.

When you reply to a chat message, we [always create a thread][1]. But when the channel we're in doesn't have threading enabled, the reply is _technically_ not a thread.
This changes the `in_thread?` method to check for both the presence of a `thread_id` and to ensure that the channel has `threading_enabled`.

Using the CategoryDrop on the categories page redirected the user to the
"latest topics" page with topics only from that category. With these
changes, selecting a category will take the user to a "subcategories
page" where only the subcategories of the selected property will be
displayed.
This commits updates `FinalDestination#get` to not forward
`Authorization` header on redirects since most HTTP clients I tested like
curl and wget does not it.
This also fixes a recent problem in `DiscourseIpInfo.mmdb_download`
where we will fail to download the databases when both `GlobalSetting.maxmind_account_id` and
`GlobalSetting.maxmind_license_key` has been set. The failure is due to
the bug above where the redirected URL given by MaxMind does not accept
an `Authorization` header.
Categories are loaded in the composer via the category chooser, but
that only loads a subset of the fields. With these changes, the category
will be loaded async to make sure that the template is updated.
This will bring in the latest version of json5, thereby satisfying security scanners. Given that this was only used in a build pipeline with trusted inputs, Discourse was not vulnerable to CVE-2022-46175, so this is just a housekeeping commit.
Whenever you get a bookmark notification, a mention notification, or click on a bookmark on a message in a long thread, we should ensure we always highlight and show the proper message.
Before this fix, we would correctly load the thread, but would always start at the bottom.

This commit optimises the database query generated by
`TopicsFilter#filter_categories` when the `-category:*` filter is used.
Previously, the method will add the `topics.category_id NOT IN
(<category ids to be excluded>)` filter to the resulting query. However,
we noticed that the performance of the query degrades as the number of
rows in the `topics` table grow and when the number of category ids to be
excluded is large.
Sample of query we ran on a large database in production to demonstrate
the improvement:
Before:
```
SELECT topics.id FROM topics WHERE topics.category_id NOT IN (83, 136, 149, 143, 153, 165, 161, 123, 155, 163, 144, 134, 69, 135, 158, 141, 151, 160, 131, 133, 89, 104, 150, 147, 132, 145, 108, 146, 122, 100, 128, 154, 95, 102, 140, 139, 88, 91, 87) ORDER BY topics.id DESC LIMIT 5;

The users directory is updated on a daily cadence. However, when a site is new and doesn't have many users, it can be confusing that a user who has just joined doesn't show up in the users until a day after they join. To eliminate this confusion, this commit triggers a refresh for the users directory as soon as as a user joins, if the site is in bootstrap mode. The reason for the conditional trigger is that refreshing the users directory is an expensive operation and doing it often on a large site with many users could lead to performance problems.

Ruby 3.3

This commit adds a different message to the users directory (`/u`) that's shown when there are no results for the search term instead of showing the one for when there are no users on the site yet.
Internal topic: t/126076.
Sorting a topics list in user activities wasn't working because the query parameters weren't passed to `findFiltered()` that does the request to the server.
Made the `sortIcon` more resilient to "input" by always converting the value to a string and checking against `"true"`.
Moved `cleanNullQueryParams()` inside `findFiltered` so we're always removing `null` query parameters.
