* FIX: `TopicTagsChanged` trigger not working with multiple tags
The check for when had multiple tags was being exclusive, you had to have all tags to trigger the automation, now it's inclusive, you can trigger the automation if you have any of the tags.
* DEV: add specs for when having multiple categories
* DEV: changed to use unions and intersections for tags
added more tests to check for multiple tags
The script `send_chat_message` when used with the `post_created_edited` trigger now accepts `{{post_quote}}` as placeholder for the value of `message`.
This is made possible by a new method in `utils`. Usage:
```ruby
placeholders["foo"] = utils.build_quote(post)
```
Under certain conditions, a recurring automation can end up in a state with no pending automation records, causing it to not execute again until manually triggered.
We use the `RRule` gem to calculate the next execution date and time for recurring automations. The gem takes the interval, frequency, start date, and a time range, and returns all dates/times within this range that meet the recurrence rule. For example:
```ruby
RRule::Rule
.new("FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1", dtstart: Time.parse("2023-01-01 07:30:00 UTC"))
.between(Time.zone.now, Time.zone.now + 2.days)
# => [Sat, 14 Sep 2024 07:30:00.000000000 UTC +00:00, Sun, 15 Sep 2024 07:30:00.000000000 UTC +00:00]
```
However, if the time component of the first point provided to `.between()` is slightly ahead of the start date (e.g., `dtstart`), the first date/time returned by `RRule` can fall outside the specified range by the same subsecond amount. For instance:
```ruby
RRule::Rule
.new("FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1", dtstart: Time.parse("2023-01-01 07:30:00 UTC"))
.between(Time.parse("2023-01-01 07:30:00.999 UTC"), Time.parse("2023-01-03 07:30:00 UTC"))
.first
# => Sun, 01 Jan 2023 07:30:00.000000000 UTC +00:00
```
Here, the start date/time given to `.between()` is 999 milliseconds after 07:30:00, but the first date returned is exactly 07:30:00 without the 999 milliseconds. This causes the next recurring date to fall into the past if the automation executes within a subsecond of the start time, leading to the automation stalling.
I'm not sure why `RRule` does this, but it seems intentional judging by the source of the `.between()` method:
b9911b7147/lib/rrule/rule.rb (L28-L32)
This commit fixes the issue by selecting the first date ahead of the current time from the list returned by `RRule`, rather than the first date directly.

We're seeing a problem where some recurring automations end up in a state where they don't have any `pending_automations` records scheduled which effectively makes the recurring automation dead. We need to add some debugging to figure out what might be causing this problem.
Internal topic: t/138045.
⚠️ This commit is a revert of a revert due to a migration which was causing `{}` metadata to be transformed into `{"value": [null]}`. The new migration shouldn't cause this and will also clean the existing errors, there shouldn't be any data loss given the affected fields where not containing actual data. We might want to stop storing these empty fields in the future.
To achieve it, this commit does the following:
- create a new `groups field`, ideally we would have reused the existing group field, but many automations now have the expectation that this field will return a group id and not an array of group ids, which makes it a dangerous change
- alter the code in `post_created_edited` to use this new groups field and change the logic to use an array
- migrate the existing group fields post_created_edited automations to change name from `restricted_group` to `restricted_groups`, the component from `group` to `groups` and the metadata from `{"value": integer}` to `{"value": [integer]}`

* FEATURE: Add user to topic_tags_changed event
Add user to topic_tags_changed event context
Update automation plugin with new arguments in event
Update tests for new arguments
relates to https://github.com/discourse/discourse-chat-integration/pull/214
* DEV: change variable name for better readability
changed `tags` to be payload and used `values_at` to get the values of the keys

Prior to this fix we could exit early if tags was `[]` as `tags && (tags & post.topic.tags.map(&:name)).empty?` would have returned true. This commit ensures it's not the case anymore and adds a test for it.

Create a topic can fail in many different ways and we don't want this to impact the rest of the application, the call will now be wrapped in a begin/rescue block and log an error if it fails.
* FEATURE: Change tags sent in topic_tags_changed trigger in discourse_automation
Before, it was sending the old tags and the current tags in topic.
Now, it sends the removed tags and the added tags in the topic.
* DEV: update `missing_tags` to be `removed_tags`
* DEV: add spacing for better readability
Prior to this fix the query in stalled_topic_finder would assume that tags/categories would be nil or an array of ids. However it can be an empty array, in this case the query will not return results.
The automation plugin has 4 custom field types that are array typed. However, array typed custom fields are deprecated and should be migrated to JSON type.
This commit does a couple of things:
1. Migrate all four custom fields to JSON
2. Fix a couple of small bugs that have been discovered while migrating the custom fields to JSON (see the comments on this commit's PR for details https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/26939)
Some combinations of start_date and frequency/interval values can cause a recurring automation rule to either trigger before its start_date or never trigger. Example repros:
- Configure a recurring automation with hourly recurrence and a start_date several days ahead. What this will do is make the automation start running hourly immediately even though the start_date is several days ahead.
- Configure a recurring automation with a weekly recurrence and a start_date several weeks ahead. This will result in the automation never triggering even after the start_date.
These 2 scenarios share the same cause which is that the automation plugin doesn't use the start_date as the date for the first run and instead uses the frequency/interval values from the current time to calculate the first run date.
This PR fixes this bug by adding an explicit check for start_date and using it as the first run's date if it's ahead of the current time.
Prior to this fix, any change to an automation would reset `pending_automations`, now we only do it if any value related to recurrence (start_date, interval, frequency, execute_at...) has been changed.
It means that any trigger creating `pending_automations` now needs to manage them in the `on_update` callback.
This commit adds a new option to the `user_updated` trigger of the automation plugin to only trigger an automation for new users that join after the automation is enabled.

This commit adds a new automation script for creating topics. It's very similar to the existing 'create a post' automation, except that it posts new topics in a specific category and with optional tags.
