Define new concept of panels in sidebar. Panels are wrappers around sidebar sections. In the future, it allows creating full focus mode by switching between panels.
A new API method called addSidebarPanel was added. Default main panel is already registered and by default all API sections are mounted to main.
Why is this change being made?
We've decided that the previous "community" section should look more
like a primary section that holds the most important navigation links
for the site and the word "community" doesn't quite fit that
description. Therefore, we've made the decision to drop the
section heading for the community section.
As part of removing the section heading, the following changes are made
as well:
1. Button to customize the section has been moved to the "footer" of the
"More..." section when `navigation_menu` site setting is set to `sidebar`.
When `navigation_menu` is set to `header dropdown`, a button to customize
the section is shown inline.
2. The section will no longer be collapsable.
3. The title of the section is no longer customisable as it is no longer
displayed. As a technical note, we have not dropped any previous
customisations of the section's title previously in case we have to
bring back the header in the future.
4. The new topic button that was previously present in the header has
been removed alongside the header. Admins can add a custom section
link to the `/new-topic` route if there would like to make it easier for
users to create a new topic in the sidebar.
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.
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
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.
Using the unitless number 0 in CSS calc() functions is recognized as invalid (tested in Chrome 110 & Firefox 111).
In this code, this would disable the style definition for the 'height' property when one of the custom properties is undefined and the fallback '0' is used.

Before that change, footer of the sidebar was not visible.
Footer is very important, especially now, when add custom section button is located there.
Also, distance between chat input and keyboard were increased

Allows users to configure their own custom sidebar sections with links withing Discourse instance. Links can be passed as relative path, for example "/tags" or full URL.
Only path is saved in DB, so when Discourse domain is changed, links will be still valid.
Feature is hidden behind SiteSetting.enable_custom_sidebar_sections. This hidden setting determines the group which members have access to this new feature.
This commit introduces an icon to all links in the sidebar. If an icon has not been configured, we will fall back to a generic "link" icon. As part of this commit, we also standardised the size of each prefix to 20px by 20px and set a fix margin. This is to allow sufficient space for text prefixes and image prefixes to be displayed.
Tests have been intentionally left out for now as I don't feel like asserting for the icons will bring much value at this point. Time shall prove me wrong.

The following changes are made in this commit:
1. Move caret icon in sidebar section header to the right.
1. Each row in sidebar takes the full width which enables us to do a
full width highlight on hover and when sidebar link is active.
1. Ensure each row in Sidebar is of the same height.

When the experimental Sidebar is enabled, the hamburger drop down is replaced by a sidebar drop down. A user is given the ability to dock and undock the sidebar depending on their personal preference.
Do also note that the experimental sidebar is well, considered experimental at this point so I do not intend for the features here to be perfect. What I aim to do here is to ship the changes fast so that it can be used internally by the team to provide feedback. Custom links added by plugins and dark mode toggle has not been implemented as part of this commit as I aim to tackle it in another commit.
