DEV: Avoid logging routing errors (#20622)
The logs are usually caused by the client and is of no use to us.

DEV: Improve handling of invalid requests (#15841)
Our discourse_public_exceptions middleware is designed to catch bubbled exceptions from lower in the stack, and then use `ApplicationController.rescue_with_handler` to render an appropriate error response.

When the request itself is invalid, we had an escape-hatch to skip re-dispatching the request to ApplicationController. However, it was possible to work around this by 'layering' the errors. For example, if you made a request which resulted in a 404, but **also** had some other invalidity, the escape hatch would not be triggered.

This commit ensures that these kind of 'layered' errors are properly handled, without logging warnings. It also adds detection for invalid JSON bodies and badly-formed multipart requests.

The user-facing behavior is unchanged. This commit simply prevents warnings being logged for invalid requests.

SECURITY: Disallow caching of MIME/Content-Type errors (#14907)
This will sign intermediary proxies and/or misconfigured CDNs to not
cache those error responses.

a9f90cdec3 FIX: avoid superflous logging when mime type is bad
Many security scanners ship invalid mime types, this ensures we return
a very cheap response to the clients and do not log anything.

Previous attempt still re-dispatched the request to get proper error page
but in this specific case we want no error page.

423ad5f0a4 FIX: do not log if an invalid mime type is passed to app
Previously our custom exception handler was unable to handle situations
where an invalid mime type was sent, resulting in a warning log

This ensures we pretend a request is HTML for the purpose of rendering
the error page if an invalid mime type from a scanner is shipped to the app

30990006a9 DEV: enable frozen string literal on all files
This reduces chances of errors where consumers of strings mutate inputs
and reduces memory usage of the app.

Test suite passes now, but there may be some stuff left, so we will run
a few sites on a branch prior to merging

we are getting this vs InvalidParameterError in the following test

5b630f3188 FIX: stop logging every time invalid params are sent
Previously we were logging warning for invalid encoded params, this can
cause a log flood

49ed382c2a FIX: return 429 when admin api key is limited on admin route
This also handles a general case where exceptions leak out prior to being handled by the application controller
