The implementation previously generated a descriptor with an `initializer()`, and bound the function to the `this` context of the initializer. In native class syntax, the initializer of a descriptor is only called once, with a `this` context of the constructor, not the instance.
This commit updates the implementation so that it generates the bound function on-demand using a getter. This is the same strategy employed by ember's built-in `@action` decorator.
Unfortunately, this use of a getter means that the `@observes` decorator does not support being directly chained to `@debounce`. It throws the error "`observer must be provided a function or an observer definition`". The workaround is to put the observer on its own function, which then calls the debounced function. Given that we're aiming to reduce our usage of `@observes`, we've accepted the need for this workaround rather than spending the time to patch the implementation of `@observes`.
Async, modern syntax, no `on()` component hooks, const extraction, sorted props, template tweaks, and a small filtering bugfix (filtering could throw errors after saving a category-selection setting)
Debouncing inline anonymous functions does not work.
This fixes all instances of that error by extracting the function or using the new `@debounce(delay)` decorator
String.prototype.substr() is deprecated so we replace it with String.prototype.slice() which works similarily but isn't deprecated.

We want to wrap the `Ember.run.debounce` function and internally call `Ember.run` instead when running tests.
This commit changes discourseDebounce to work the same way as `Ember.run.debounce`.
Now that `discourseDebounce` works exactly like `Ember.run.debounce`, let's replace it and only use `DiscourseDebounce` from now on.
Move debounce to discourse-common to be able to reuse it in different bundles
Keep old debounce file for backwards-compatibility
