Sometimes administrators want to permanently delete posts and topics
from the database. To make sure that this is done for a good reasons,
administrators can do this only after one minute has passed since the
post was deleted or immediately if another administrator does it.
We don't want to be using emails as source for username and name suggestions in cases when it's possible that a user have no chance to intervene and correct a suggested username. It risks exposing email addresses.
Previosuly, quotes from original topics are rendered incorrectly since the moved posts are not rebaked.

FinalDestination now supports the `follow_canonical` option, which will perform an initial GET request, parse the canonical link if present, and perform a HEAD request to it.
We use this mode during embeds to avoid treating URLs with different query parameters as different topics.
Previously, while retrieving each upload urls in a post S3 CDN urls with different path in prefix (external urls technically) are considered as uploaded url. It created issue while checking missing uploads.
This commit resolves refactors can_invite_to? to use
can_invite_to_forum? for checking the site-wide permissions and then
perform topic specific checkups.
Similarly, can_invite_to? is always used with a topic object and this is
now enforced.
There was another problem before when `must_approve_users` site setting
was not checked when inviting users to forum, but was checked when
inviting to a topic.
Another minor security issue was that group owners could invite to
group topics even if they did not have the minimum trust level to do
it.
Instead of going to the OP of the topic for topic-level bookmarks
(which are bookmarks where for_topic is true) when clicking on the
bookmark in the quick access menu or on the user bookmark list,
this commit takes the user to the last unread post in
the topic instead. This should be generally more useful than landing
on the unchanging OP.
To make this work nicely, I needed to add the last_read_post_number to
the BookmarkQuery based on the TopicUser association. It should not add
too much extra weight to the query, because it is limited to the user
that we are fetching bookmarks for.
Also fixed an issue where the bookmark serializer highest_post_number was
not taking into account whether the user was staff, which is when we
should use highest_staff_post_number instead.
* DEV: use active record `save!` instead of mini sql.
The "save" method will trigger the before_save callback "match_primary_group_changes" for User model. Else `flair_group_id` won't be removed from the user.
* check whether the method `match_primary_group_changes` called or not.
After deleting a category, we should soft-delete the category definition topic instead of hard deleting it. Else it causes issues while doing the user merge action if the source user has an orphan post that belongs to the deleted topic.
This new column will be used to indicate that a bookmark
is at the topic level. The first post of a topic can be
bookmarked twice after this change -- with for_topic set
to true and with for_topic set to false.
A later PR will use this column for logic to bookmark the
topic, and then topic-level bookmark links will take you
to the last unread post in the topic.

We don't need no stinkin' denormalization! This commit ignores
the topic_id column on bookmarks, to be deleted at a later date.
We don't really need this column and it's better to rely on the
post.topic_id as the canonical topic_id for bookmarks, then we
don't need to remember to update both columns if the bookmarked
post moves to another topic.
When a user archives a personal message, they are redirected back to the
inbox and will refresh the list of the topics for the given filter.
Publishing an event to the user results in an incorrect incoming message
because the list of topics has already been refreshed.
This does mean that if a user has two tabs opened, the non-active tab
will not receive the incoming message but at this point we do not think
the technical trade-offs are worth it to support this feature. We
basically have to somehow exclude a client from an incoming message
which is not easy to do.

DEV: Allow passing cook_method to TopicEmbed.import to override default
This will be used in the rss-polling plugin when we want to have
oneboxes on feed content, like youtube for example.
There are certain design decisions that were made in this commit.
Private messages implements its own version of topic tracking state because there are significant differences between regular and private_message topics. Regular topics have to track categories and tags while private messages do not. It is much easier to design the new topic tracking state if we maintain two different classes, instead of trying to mash this two worlds together.
One MessageBus channel per user and one MessageBus channel per group. This allows each user and each group to have their own channel backlog instead of having one global channel which requires the client to filter away unrelated messages.
When a staff member clicks on a user's number of flagged posts, we redirect them to the review queue, so it makes sense to count the number of items there to calculate the count.
We used to look at post action items to calculate this number, which doesn't match the number of items in the queue if old flags exist.
When a post is flagged with the reason of 'Something Else' a brief message can be added by the user which subsequently creates a `meta_topic` private message. The group `moderators` is automatically added to this topic.
If category group moderation is enabled, and the post belongs to a category with a reviewable group, that group should also be added to the meta_topic.
Note: This extends the `notify_moderators` logic, and will add the reviewable group to the meta_topic, regardless of the settings of that group.
* FIX: Update draft count when sequence is increased
Sometimes users ended up having a draft count higher than the actual
number of drafts.
* FIX: Do not update draft count twice
The call to DraftSequence.next! above already does it.
Group flair is not removed while removing a user from the group since the `before_save` callback methods are not triggered while using the `update_columns` method.
When a post is created, the draft sequence is increased and then older
drafts are automatically executing a raw SQL query. This skipped the
Draft model callbacks and did not update user's draft count.
I fixed another problem related to a raw SQL query from Draft.cleanup!
method.
This commit adds the number of drafts a user has next to the "Draft"
label in the user preferences menu and activity tab. The count is
updated via MessageBus when a draft is created or destroyed.
Will show the last 6 seen users as filtering suggestions when typing @ in quick search. (Previously the user suggestion required a character after the @.)
This also adds a default limit of 6 to the user search query, previously the backend was returning 20 results but a maximum of 6 results was being shown anyway.
Fixes two issues:
- ignores invalid XML in custom icon sprite SVG file (and outputs an error if sprite was uploaded via admin UI)
- clears SVG sprite cache when deleting an `icons-sprite` upload in a theme
Previously we would re-calculate topic_user.liked for all users who have ever viewed the source or destination topic. This can be very expensive on large sites. Instead, we can use the array of moved post ids to find which users are actually affected by the move, and restrict the update query to only check/update their records.
On an example site this reduced the `update_post_action_cache` time from ~27s to 300ms
