Sam a3e8c3cd7b FEATURE: Native theme support
This feature introduces the concept of themes. Themes are an evolution
of site customizations.

Themes introduce two very big conceptual changes:

- A theme may include other "child themes", children can include grand
children and so on.

- A theme may specify a color scheme

The change does away with the idea of "enabled" color schemes.

It also adds a bunch of big niceties like

- You can source a theme from a git repo

- History for themes is much improved

- You can only have a single enabled theme. Themes can be selected by
    users, if you opt for it.

On a technical level this change comes with a whole bunch of goodies

- All CSS is now compiled using a custom pipeline that uses libsass
    see /lib/stylesheet

- There is a single pipeline for css compilation (in the past we used
    one for customizations and another one for the rest of the app

- The stylesheet pipeline is now divorced of sprockets, there is no
   reliance on sprockets for CSS bundling

- CSS is generated with source maps everywhere (including themes) this
    makes debugging much easier

- Our "live reloader" is smarter and avoid a flash of unstyled content
   we run a file watcher in "puma" in dev so you no longer need to run
   rake autospec to watch for CSS changes

Andy Waite 3e50313fdc Prepare for separation of RSpec helper files
Since rspec-rails 3, the default installation creates two helper files:
* `spec_helper.rb`
* `rails_helper.rb`

`spec_helper.rb` is intended as a way of running specs that do not
require Rails, whereas `rails_helper.rb` loads Rails (as Discourse's
current `spec_helper.rb` does).

For more information:

https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/upgrade#default-helper-files

In this commit, I've simply replaced all instances of `spec_helper` with
`rails_helper`, and renamed the original `spec_helper.rb`.

This brings the Discourse project closer to the standard usage of RSpec
in a Rails app.

At present, every spec relies on loading Rails, but there are likely
many that don't need to. In a future pull request, I hope to introduce a
separate, minimal `spec_helper.rb` which can be used in tests which
don't rely on Rails.
