Previously the 'reconnect' process was a bit magic - IF you were already logged into discourse, and followed the auth flow, your account would be reconnected and you would be 'logged in again'.
Now, we explicitly check for a reconnect=true parameter when the flow is started, store it in the session, and then only follow the reconnect logic if that variable is present. Setting this parameter also skips the 'logged in again' step, which means reconnect now works with 2fa enabled.
At the moment core providers are hard-coded in Javascript, and plugin providers get added to the JS payload at compile time. This refactor means that we only ship enabled providers to the client.
This updates tests to use latest rails 5 practice
and updates ALL dependencies that could be updated
Performance testing shows that performance has not regressed
if anything it is marginally faster now.
