This PR introduces a new secure media setting. When enabled, it prevent unathorized access to media uploads (files of type image, video and audio). When the `login_required` setting is enabled, then all media uploads will be protected from unauthorized (anonymous) access. When `login_required`is disabled, only media in private messages will be protected from unauthorized access.
A few notes:
- the `prevent_anons_from_downloading_files` setting no longer applies to audio and video uploads
- the `secure_media` setting can only be enabled if S3 uploads are already enabled and configured
- upload records have a new column, `secure`, which is a boolean `true/false` of the upload's secure status
- when creating a public post with an upload that has already been uploaded and is marked as secure, the post creator will raise an error
- when enabling or disabling the setting on a site with existing uploads, the rake task `uploads:ensure_correct_acl` should be used to update all uploads' secure status and their ACL on S3
POSIX's `head` specification states: "The application shall ensure that the number option-argument is a positive decimal integer"
Negative values are supported on GNU `head`, so this works in the discourse docker image. However, in some environments (e.g. macOS), the system `head` version fails with a negative `n` parameter.
This commit does two things:
Checks the status at each stage of the pipe, so it cannot fail silently
Flip the `ls` command to list in descending time order, and use `tail -n +501` instead of `head -n -500`.
The visible result is that macOS users no longer see head: illegal line count -- -500 printed throughout the test suite.
Net::HTTP always returns ASCII-8BIT encoding. File.read auto-detects the encoding. This leads to an encoding inconsistency between a fresh download, and a cached download. This commit ensures all downloaded files are treated equally, by always returning the cached version from the filesystem, even during initial download.
One symptom of this problem is during theme exports: https://meta.discourse.org/t/116907

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
