* FEATURE: Cache CORS preflight requests for 2h
Browsers will cache this for 5 seconds by default. If using MessageBus
in a different domain, Discourse will issue a new long polling, by
default, every 30s or so. This means we would be issuing a new preflight
request **every time**. This can be incredibly wasteful, so let's cache
the authorization in the client for 2h, which is the maximum Chromium
allows us as of today.
* fix tests
Previously we would consider a user "present" and "last seen" if the
browser window was visible.
This has many edge cases, you could be considered present and around for
days just by having a window open and no screensaver on.
Instead we now also check that you either clicked, transitioned around app
or scrolled the page in the last minute in combination with window
visibility
This will lead to more reliable notifications via email and reduce load of
message bus for cases where a user walks away from the terminal
This change both speeds up specs (less strings to allocate) and helps catch
cases where methods in Discourse are mutating inputs.
Overall we will be migrating everything to use #frozen_string_literal: true
it will take a while, but this is the first and safest move in this direction
