Previously the return to forum link would automatically take you to the
forum homepage, however this was not intended functionality. We should
attempt to take the user to their last viewed forum page.
This change fixes a bug in how we determined what the destination link
should be.

The following case was bugged:
- visit a thread in full page chat
- click channel title
- click back button in channel navbar
- 💥 you would have a channel with limited width as if there was
still the thread showing next to it, but it was empty
This commit does several changes:
- it moves the ownership of the last message info to the channel instead
of storing it on the message, it avoids the need to iterate over every
messages
- makes an optimistic update of the last read message id
- adds a spec to confirm this behavior
Users can now decide if they want to send a message on:
- <kbd>enter</kbd>
- <kbd>meta + enter</kbd>
If you choose <kbd>meta + enter</kbd>, <kbd>enter</kbd> will add a
linebreak.

Lazy loading images naturally causes a slight delay, because the browser
only starts to load them after laying out the DOM and checking whether
they're in the viewport. Plus, in Safari, re-rendering the DOM of a
lazy-loaded image always causes a brief flicker, even if the image is
already cached in the browser.
Lazy-loading is most beneficial on large one-off images which are often
rendered outside the viewport. That's frequently the case for images
which users share in topics. Avatars, on the other hand, are very small
images, they're very often above-the-fold, and the same avatar often
occurs many times on the same page.
Therefore, this commit removes `loading="lazy"` from avatars, which
should improve avatar load times in all browsers, and stop the flicker
in Safari.

Previously if you linked to a chat thread inline, our oneboxer
did not have special handling for this, so the link would end
up with the text "Chat #channel-name" which is not ideal for a
thread.
This commit makes it so the thread onebox is in the format
"Thread title - #channel-name" if the thread title exists,
otherwise we show "Thread in #channel-name"
When clicking the "new features" notification item for
admins that navigates to /whats-new, the user notification
menu was not closing. This was happening because inside
the UserMenu::Menu component, the `routeDidChange` event
was firing and calling `closeUserMenu()`, however this is already
called inside the `Header` component via `toggleHamburger()`.
This is _only_ happening for the "new features" notification
item, other items have already been destroyed and they do not get
the `routeDidChange` event. No idea why, but this fixes the issue
in a global way.
And change the "formula" to check for duplicate messages to
- no duplicate check in 1:1 DMs
- only duplicate check in group DMs / channels, for posts made by the
same user, in the past 10 seconds

The chat emoji picker is renamed emoji-picker, and the old emoji-picker is removed.
This commit doesn't attempt to fully rework a new emoji-picker but instead tries to migrate everything to one picker (the chat one) and add small changes.
Other notable changes:
- all the favorite emojis code has been mixed into one service which is able to store one state per context, favorites emojis will be stored for all topics, and for each chat channel. Meaning that if you always use a specific emoji in a channel, it will only show as favorite emoji in this channel.
- a lot of static code has been removed which should improve initial load perf of discourse. Initially this code was around to improve the performance of the emoji picker rendering.
- the emojis are now stored, once the full list has been loaded, if you close and reopen the picker it won't have to load them again.
List of components:
- `<EmojiPicker />` will render a button which will open a dropdown
- `<EmojiPickerContent />` represents the content of the dropdown alone, it's useful when you want to render a picker from an action which is not the default picker button
- `<EmojiPickerDetached />` just a simple wrapper over `<EmojiPickerContent />` to make it easier to use it with `this.menu.show(...)`

This test is flaky, sometimes it fails with the hamburger menu blocking the click on the emoji, other times it just doesn't return the list of emojis when the search term is there.
Other similar emoji tests are skipped. Stopping the bleed, but we still need to figure out a more reliable testing strategy here.
Will revisit after #28277 is merged.

For mentions within threads, the mentioned user can experience a stuck notification. This is due to thread memberships only being created for users who interact with a thread. Without the membership we cannot track if the message containing the mention was read by the user.
The solution to this explored in this PR is:
- auto add memberships for mentioned users (only direct mentions for performance reasons).
- update channel/thread unread queries to check notification read status AND thread membership last read message id when counting mentions.
Previously the mention count would remain until the user notification (containing the mention) was read. However this only happens if the user clicks the notification or clicks dismiss all notifications. When a user navigated to the thread without clicking the notification, the green/urgent badge on chat would remain even after a hard page refresh.
After searching for an emoji through the autocomplete, when a user uses the emoji picker (to see the full list of emojis) and selects one, the content in the chat composer would contain both the partially written emoji and the full :selected_emoji: code.
The actual fix is just re-using the emojiSelected method from TextManipulation.
This converts the `<AdminPageHeader />` component and the
`<AdminPageSubheader />` components into new components
that can be used outside of admin, and updates the CSS classes.
Also introduces a `<DPageActionButton />` component and child
components for the header action buttons.
I have to keep the old admin-only components around for
now until plugins are updated, then we can remove it,
and remove the re-exports that are done within
admin-page-action-button.gjs
This commit introduces <NotificationsTracking /> which is a wrapper component around <DMenu /> which replaces the select-kit component <TopicNotificationsButton />.
Each tracking case has its dedicated component:
- topic -> `<TopicNotificationsTracking />`
- group -> `<GroupNotificationsTracking />`
- tag -> `<TagNotificationsTracking />`
- category -> `<CategoryNotificationsTracking />`
- chat thread -> `<ThreadNotificationsTracking />`
When fetching DM channels, we would fetch all the user's DM channels,
and limit the number of DM channels we display on the client-side using
the `DIRECT_MESSAGE_CHANNELS_LIMIT`.
This is obviously not scalable as users are having more and more
discussions with other users.
This commit ensures we always limit the number of DM channels we send to the
client.
It adds the `MAX_DM_CHANNEL_RESULTS` in `ChannelFetcher` and use it to
limit the records returned by the server. This value should always be
lower than `DIRECT_MESSAGE_CHANNELS_LIMIT` on the client-side, so that
when the user has more "unread DMs" they still show up on the client as
they read them.
While adding a spec, I also updated the spec that ensures we have a
limit on public channels to use `stub_const` to temporarily lower the number
of fixtures we create during the test.
This patch aims to improve the steps inspector output:
- The service class name is displayed at the top.
- Next to each step is displayed the time it took to run said step.
- Steps that didn’t run are hidden.
- `#inspect` automatically outputs the error when it is present.
In this PR, we added functionality to hide the admin header for edit/new actions - https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/30175
To make it work properly, we have to rename `show` to `edit` which is also a more accurate name.
This change creates a shallow copy of the public message channels so we don't change the original array while sorting.
Without this change the publicMessageChannels getter cache gets invalidated and cached again with the sorted channels array instead, which causes a bug where the sidebar channel list sorting order is updated by activity when user interacts with the chat drawer.
We've seen in some communities abuse of user profile where bios and other fields are used in malicious ways, such as malware distribution. A common pattern between all the abuse cases we've seen is that the malicious actors tend to have 0 posts and have a low trust level.
To eliminate this abuse vector, or at least make it much less effective, we're making the following changes to user profiles:
1. Anonymous, TL0 and TL1 users cannot see any user profiles for users with 0 posts except for staff users
2. Anonymous and TL0 users can only see profiles of TL1 users and above
Users can always see their own profile, and they can still hide their profiles via the "Hide my public profile" preference. Staff can always see any user's profile.
Internal topic: t/142853.
This change sorts unread channels in descending order based on last message date, so channels with the latest activity will always appear at the top. It also adds some improvements for sorting channels with unread threads, now when multiple channels have unread threads, they will be sorted by last thread reply date to ensure more active channels rise to the top.
For DM channels, the order is now:
- Urgent (green badge) - unread messages, mentions and unread watched threads (most recent activity at top)
- Unread (blue badge) - unread tracked threads (most recent thread reply at top)
- Everything else (most recent message at top)
Prior to this fix it would cause an error as we need to pass the user to get the title of the channel.
This commit also adds a test for message interaction serializer.
This optimizes a hot path when users are being removed from one or more groups since we use the `on(:user_removed_from_group)` event to call the `Chat::AutoLeaveChannels` with a `user_id` parameter. In such case, we don't need to clear the membership of all users, just that one user.
DEBUG: Also added a "-- event = <event>" comment on top of the SQL queries used by the "AutoLeaveChannels" so they show up in the logs and hopefully facilitate any performance issues that might arise in the future.
Blocks allow BOTS to augment the capacities of a chat message. At the moment only one block is available: `actions`, accepting only one type of element: `button`.

## Interactions
When a user interactions with a button the following flow will happen:
- We send an interaction request to the server
- Server checks if the user can make this interaction
- If the user can make this interaction, the server will:
* `DiscourseEvent.trigger(:chat_message_interaction, interaction)`
* return a JSON document
```json
{
"interaction": {
"user": {
"id": 1,
"username": "j.jaffeux"
},
"channel": {
"id": 1,
"title": "Staff"
},
"message": {
"id": 1,
"text": "test",
"user_id": -1
},
"action": {
"text": {
"text": "How to install themes?",
"type": "plain_text"
},
"type": "button",
"value": "click_me_123",
"action_id": "bf4f30b9-de99-4959-b3f5-632a6a1add04"
}
}
}
```
* Fire a `appEvents.trigger("chat:message_interaction", interaction)`
When using chat in drawer mode, after you've clicked on a chat bookmark in the user menu, clicking any other chat bookmark would "do nothing".
In 8b18fd155679fa9b9d6e660ac74130cb79daabdc we added an optimization to prevent the same route from being reloaded, but it ended up breaking the bookmarks.
This commit reverts the changed made the above commit and adds a system specs that ensure we can click two chat bookmarks in the user menu when using chat in drawer mode.

Previously we only counted mentions that were made within channels, however for threads this was never implemented.
This change adds a mention count to the ThreadUnreadsQuery, which is used for channel thread lists and the user thread list. We are also expanding channel mentions count to include mentions within threads.
The goal is to have a more consistent urgent badge across chat, in places such as channel lists and the chat header.
It splits the hide_profile_and_presence user option and the default_hide_profile_and_presence site setting for more granular control. It keeps the option to hide the profile under /u/username/preferences/interface and adds the presence toggle in the quick user menu.

Chat channels that are linked to a category can be set to automatically join users.
This is handled by subscribing to the following events
- group_destroyed
- user_seen
- user_confirmed_email
- user_added_to_group
- user_removed_from_group
- category_updated
- site_setting_changed (for `chat_allowed_groups`)
As well as a
- hourly background job (`AutoJoinUsers`)
- `CreateCategoryChannel` service
- `UpdateChannel` service
There was however two issues with the current implementation
1. We were triggering a lot of background jobs, mostly because it was decided to batch to auto join/leave into groups of 1000 users, adding a lot of stress to the system
2. We had one "class" (a service or a background job) per "event" and all of them had slightly different ways to select users to join/leave, making it hard to keep everything in sync
This PR "simply" adds two new servicesL `AutoJoinChannels` and `AutoLeaveChannels` that takes care, in an efficient way, of all the cases when users might automatically join a leave a chat channel.
Every other changes come from the fact that we're now always calling either one of those services, depending on the event that happened.
In the making of these classes, a few bugs were encountered and fixed, notably
- A user is only ever able to access chat channels if and only if they're part of a group listed in the `chat_allowed_group` site setting
- A category that has no associated "category groups" is only accessible to staff members (and not "Everyone")
- A silenced user should not be able to automatically join channels
- We should not attempt to automatically join users to deleted chat channels
- There is no need to automatically join users to chat channels that have already more than `max_chat_auto_joined_users` users
Internal - t/135259 & t/70607
* DEV: add specs for auto join/leave channels services
* DEV: less hacky specs
* DEV: no instance variables in specs
Adds channels with unread threads (watching/tracking) to the sorting logic for both public and direct message channels.
Previously channels with unread threads could easily be missed as we didn't bump them to the top when new thread replies were created.
We are also adding a blue unread badge next to DM channels when there is an unread thread, as previously they weren't appearing as unread within the DMs tab (they only showed within the My Threads section).
This change will only prevent a cooked message with [grid] to show [grid] instead the content will be wrapped in `div class="d-image-grid"`. This is only enabled on messages made by bot, as regular users could use grid but have no reason to use it ATM. It will also not apply the decoration which shouldn't change the behavior more than just remove grid markup from the message
