DEV: Add new experimental admin UI route and sidebar (#23952)
This commit adds a new admin UI under the route `/admin-revamp`, which is
only accessible if the user is in a group defined by the new `enable_experimental_admin_ui_groups` site setting. It
also adds a special `admin` sidebar panel that is shown instead of the `main`
forum one when the admin is in this area.

We also add an "Admin Revamp" sidebar link to the community section, which
will only appear if the user is in the setting group:

Within this there are subroutes defined like `/admin-revamp/config/:area`,
these areas could contain any UI imaginable, this is just laying down an
initial idea of the structure and how the sidebar will work. Sidebar links are
currently hardcoded.

Some other changes:

* Changed the `main` and `chat` panels sidebar panel keys to use exported const values for reuse
* Allowed custom sidebar sections to hide their headers with the `hideSectionHeader` option
* Add a `groupSettingArray` setting on `this.siteSettings` in JS, which accepts a group site setting name
  and splits it by `|` then converts the items in the array to integers, similar to the `_map` magic for ruby
  group site settings
* Adds a `hidden` option for sidebar panels which prevents them from showing in separated mode and prevents
  the switch button from being shown

### Added
- Adds `addPosterIcons`, which allows users to add multiple icons to a poster. The
addition of this function also makes the existing `addPosterIcon` now an alias to this
function. Users may now just use `addPosterIcons` for both one or many icons. This
function allows users to now return many icons depending on an `attrs`.
## [1.0.0] - 2021-11-25
### Removed
- Removes the `addComposerUploadProcessor` function, which is no longer used in
favour of `addComposerUploadPreProcessor`. The former was used to add preprocessors
for client side uploads via jQuery file uploader (described at
https://github.com/blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload/wiki/Options#file-processing-options).
The new `addComposerUploadPreProcessor` adds preprocessors for client side
uploads in the form of an Uppy plugin. See https://uppy.io/docs/writing-plugins/
for the Uppy documentation, but other examples of preprocessors in core can be found
in the UppyMediaOptimization and UppyChecksum classes. This has been done because
of the overarching move towards Uppy in the Discourse codebase rather than
jQuery fileupload, which will eventually be removed altogether as a broader effort
to remove jQuery from the codebase.
### Changed
- Changes `addComposerUploadHandler`'s behaviour. Instead of being only usable
for single files at a time, now multiple files are sent to the upload handler
at once. These multiple files are sent based on the groups in which they are
added (e.g. multiple files selected from the system upload dialog, or multiple
files dropped in to the composer). Files will be sent in buckets to the handlers
they match.
