A follow-up correction to this change https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/9001.
When admin changes staff email still enforce old email confirm. Only allow auto-confirm of a new email by admin IF the target user is not also an admin. If an admin gets locked out of their email the site admin can use the rails console to solve the issue in a pinch.
When admin changes a user's email from the preferences page of that user:
* The user will not be sent an email to confirm that their
email is changing. They will be sent a reset password email
so they can set the password for their account at the new
email address.
* The user will still be sent an email to their old email to inform
them that it was changed.
* Admin and staff users still need to follow the same old + new
confirm process, as do users changing their own email.
Zeitwerk simplifies working with dependencies in dev and makes it easier reloading class chains.
We no longer need to use Rails "require_dependency" anywhere and instead can just use standard
Ruby patterns to require files.
This is a far reaching change and we expect some followups here.
This change both speeds up specs (less strings to allocate) and helps catch
cases where methods in Discourse are mutating inputs.
Overall we will be migrating everything to use #frozen_string_literal: true
it will take a while, but this is the first and safest move in this direction
