When adding custom translations for tests using `I18n.backend.store_translations`,
we need to remove the custom translations at the end of each test to
prevent the custom translations from leaking to other tests.
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.
Recurring automations are triggered by a scheduled job that runs every minute and checks for due automations, runs them and then marks as them as completed (by deleting the `PendingAutomation` record). However, the job is currently subject to a race condition where a recurring automation can be executed more than once at its due date if it takes more than a minute to finish.
This commit adds a mutex around the code that triggers the recurring automation so that no concurrent executions can happen for a single automation.

It's currently possible to setup multiple automation rules that trigger each other resulting in an infinite loop. To prevent that, this commit adds a global "circuit breaker" that prevents all automations from triggering while an automation rule is executing.

Those were all low hanging fruits - all were already glimmer components, so this was mostly merging js and hbs files and adding imports.
(occasionally also adds/fixes class names)
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.

The complexity of the situation is that we don't want to load faker into production by default but fabricators and styleguide are available on production.
This is made possible through app/assets/javascripts/discourse/app/lib/load-faker.js which contains a function to ensure faker is loaded asynchronously (loadFaker) and another function to access the loaded faker (getLoadedFaker).
Note 1: this commit also refactors fabricators to have access to context and use faker where possible
Note 2: this commit moves automation to admin bundle

Moving the automation plugin dependencies to core allows us to receive automatic notifications about new releases for those gems.
