Allow admin to create custom flag which requires an additional message.
I decided to rename the old `custom_flag` into `require_message` as it is more descriptive.

I decided to rename the old `custom_flag` into `require_message` as it is more descriptive.
So it can easily be overwritten in a plugin for example.
### Added more tests to provide better coverage
We previously only had `u.silenced_till IS NULL` but I made it consistent with pretty much every other places where we check for "active" users.
These two new lines do change the query a tiny bit though.
**Before**
- You could not get the badge if you were currently silenced (no matter what period is being checked)
- You could get the badge if you were suspended 😬
**After**
- You can't get the badge if you were silenced during the past year
- You can't get the badge if you were suspended during the past year
### Improved the performance of the query by using `NOT EXISTS` instead of `LEFT JOIN / COUNT() = 0`
There is no difference in behaviour between
```sql
LEFT JOIN user_badges AS ub ON ub.user_id = u.id AND ...
[...]
HAVING COUNT(ub.*) = 0
```
and
```sql
NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM user_badges AS ub WHERE ub.user_id = u.id AND ...)
```
The only difference is performance-wise. The `NOT EXISTS` is 10-30% faster on very large databases (aka. posts and users in X millions). I checked on 3 of the largest datasets I could find.
In badge queries for 'First Share' and 'Nice/Good/Great Share' badges,
check that the user exists.
For 'Nice+ Share' badges, also grant badges if the number of shares is
equal to the threshhold count to better match the descriptions.
Over the years we accrued many spelling mistakes in the code base.
This PR attempts to fix spelling mistakes and typos in all areas of the code that are extremely safe to change
- comments
- test descriptions
- other low risk areas
Previously we would use the date the post was updated at as the grant date
this caused confusion.
This also tidies up the badges sql file which was using outdated patterns
for multi line strings.
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
Previously due to #b2dc65f9534ea date on the quoted_posts table could not
be trusted.
This changes it so we use the date on the actual post as the grant date.
Note: there is an edge case where you create a post and only add a quote
a week later. In this case the badge will not be awarded at the correct
time (it will display it was granted a week ago).
That said this is far more rare than the current situation.
