FEATURE: Allow sending group SMTP emails with from alias (#15687)
This commit allows group SMTP emails to be sent with a
different from email address that has been set up as an
alias in the email provider. Emails from the alias will
be grouped correctly using Message-IDs in the mail client,
and replies to the alias go into the correct group inbox.

FEATURE: Experimental support for group membership via google auth (#14835)
This commit introduces a new site setting "google_oauth2_hd_groups". If enabled, group information will be fetched from Google during authentication, and stored in the Discourse database. These 'associated groups' can be connected to a Discourse group via the "Membership" tab of the group preferences UI. 

The majority of the implementation is generic, so we will be able to add support to more authentication methods in the near future.

FEATURE: enable tagging by default (#13175)
Over the years we have found that a few communities never discovered tags.

Instead of having them default off we now have them default on, ensuring
that everyone finds out about them.

FEATURE: Improve group email settings UI (#13083)
This overhauls the user interface for the group email settings management, aiming to make it a lot easier to test the settings entered and confirm they are correct before proceeding. We do this by forcing the user to test the settings before they can be saved to the database. It also includes some quality of life improvements around setting up IMAP and SMTP for our first supported provider, GMail. This PR does not remove the old group email config, that will come in a subsequent PR. This is related to https://meta.discourse.org/t/imap-support-for-group-inboxes/160588 so read that if you would like more backstory.

### UI

Both site settings of `enable_imap` and `enable_smtp` must be true to test this. You must enable SMTP first to enable IMAP.

You can prefill the SMTP settings with GMail configuration. To proceed with saving these settings you must test them, which is handled by the EmailSettingsValidator.

If there is an issue with the configuration or credentials a meaningful error message should be shown.

IMAP settings must also be validated when IMAP is enabled, before saving.

When saving IMAP, we fetch the mailboxes for that account and populate them. This mailbox must be selected and saved for IMAP to work (the feature acts as though it is disabled until the mailbox is selected and saved):

### Database & Backend

This adds several columns to the Groups table. The purpose of this change is to make it much more explicit that SMTP/IMAP is enabled for a group, rather than relying on settings not being null. Also included is an UPDATE query to backfill these columns. These columns are automatically filled when updating the group.

For GMail, we now filter the mailboxes returned. This is so users cannot use a mailbox like Sent or Trash for syncing, which would generally be disastrous.

There is a new group endpoint for testing email settings. This may be useful in the future for other places in our UI, at which point it can be extracted to a more generic endpoint or module to be included.
