Prior to this commit, we didn't have RTL versions of our admin and plugins CSS bundles and we always served LTR versions of those bundles even when users used an RTL locale, causing admin and plugins UI elements to never look as good as when an LTR locale was used. Example of UI issues prior to this commit were: missing margins, borders on the wrong side and buttons too close to each other etc.
This commit creates an RTL version for the admin CSS bundle as well as RTL bundles for all the installed plugins and serves those RTL bundles to users/sites who use RTL locales.
What is the problem?
There are two problems being fixed here:
1. When opening the composer, we are seeing multiple requests made to
the `/composer_messages` endpoint. This is due to our use of the
`transitionend` event on the `#reply-control` element. The event is
fired once for each transition event and the `#reply-control` element
has multiple transition events.
2. System tests have animations disabled so the `transitionend` event
does not fire at all.
What is the solution?
Instead of relying on the `transitionend` event, we can instead just
observer the `composerState` property of the `ComposerBody` component
and trigger the `composer:opened` appEvent with a delay that is similar
to the transition duration used for the `ComposerBody` component.
We currently have some CSS rules in `common/base/rtl.scss` that were added to workaround shortcomings of the R2 gem that we used to use to generate versions of our CSS that are suitable for RTL layouts. Those workarounds are mostly duplicates of existing rules with the only difference being that they're flipped to suit RTL layouts (e.g. `padding-left` is changed to `padding-right` and vice versa).
However, we've recently replaced R2 with `rtlcss` which doesn't have those shortcomings of R2 (see f94951147e) which means those workarounds/duplicate rules need to be removed because they're getting flipped by `rltcss`, essentially reverting them to their original LTR version and causing issues with RTL layouts.
This commit removes those workarounds that are no longer needed, and cleans up the the file that contains our RTL-specific CSS.

Allow admins to edit Community section. This includes drag and drop reorder, change names, delete and reset to default.
Visual improvements introduced in edit community section modal are available in edit custom section form as well. For example:
- drag and drop links to change their position;
- smaller icon picker.
Followup to eae47d82e2,
we removed some specificity from the hashtag color
CSS classes, but now the color is being overridden
by the base hashtag-cooked.d-icon color. This color
is no longer needed, so we just remove that and
the specificity.
When a user chooses to move a topic/message to an existing topic/message, they can now opt to merge the posts chronologically (using a checkbox in the UI).
This commit makes some fundamental changes to how hashtag cooking and
icon generation works in the new experimental hashtag autocomplete mode.
Previously we cooked the appropriate SVG icon with the cooked hashtag,
though this has proved inflexible especially for theming purposes.
Instead, we now cook a data-ID attribute with the hashtag and add a new
span as an icon placeholder. This is replaced on the client side with an
icon (or a square span in the case of categories) on the client side via
the decorateCooked API for posts and chat messages.
This client side logic uses the generated hashtag, category, and channel
CSS classes added in a previous commit.
This is missing changes to the sidebar to use the new generated CSS
classes and also colors and the split square for categories in the
hashtag autocomplete menu -- I will tackle this in a separate PR so it
is clearer.
Before this commit chat was applying a fixed height on everything under the `/chat` route. It's only really needed on the channel page with the composer at the bottom of the page.
This commits makes the following changes:
- moves height limitation from `#main-outlet-wrapper` to `.chat-channel`
- makes browse channel page and members list page full height and rely on main document scrollbar
- adds height computation for draft header and direct message creator block to ensure the height is correct when creating a draft channel
- makes chat index full height to rely on the browser scrollbar. As a result the <kbd> + </kbd> button used on mobile to create a direct message as been moved out of `<ChannelsList>` into the chat index template
- sidebar height was relying on chat setting a max height, as a result the height computation of sidebar has been changed to work correctly, especially with an opened keyboard on mobile or ipad
- Update welcome topic copy
- Edit the welcome topic automatically when the title or description changes
- Remove “Create your Welcome Topic” banner/CTA
- Add "edit welcome topic" user tip
Change mechanism handling `more` button for sidebar.
Before it was using HTML details tag.
To make tests more reliable, we are switching to use ember runloop.
* DEV: move sidebar community section to database
Before, community section was hard-coded. In the future, we are planning to allow admins to edit it. Therefore, it has to be moved to database to `custom_sections` table.
Few steps and simplifications has to be made:
- custom section was hidden behind `enable_custom_sidebar_sections` feature flag. It has to be deleted so all forums, see community section;
- migration to add `section_type` column to sidebar section to show it is a special type;
- migration to add `segment` column to sidebar links to determine if link should be displayed in primary section or in more section;
- simplify more section to have one level only (secondary section links are merged);
- ensure that links like `everything` are correctly tracking state;
- make user an anonymous links position consistence. For example, from now on `faq` link for user and anonymous is visible in more tab;
- delete old community-section template.
This will automatically adjust when browser UI is shown/hidden (e.g. when scrolling up/down on mobile Safari).
Similar approach to c82094cd9d, which targeted the 'slide-in' version of menus.
