Daniel Waterworth 563253e9ed FIX: Fix options given to per-minute rate limiter
Previously the options for the per-minute and per-10-second rate
limiters were the same.

Sam Saffron ed00f35306 FEATURE: improve performance of anonymous cache
This commit introduces 2 features:

1. DISCOURSE_COMPRESS_ANON_CACHE (true|false, default false): this allows
you to optionally compress the anon cache body entries in Redis, can be
useful for high load sites with Redis that lives on a separate server to
to webs

2. DISCOURSE_ANON_CACHE_STORE_THRESHOLD (default 2), only pop entries into
redis if we observe them more than N times. This avoids situations where
a crawler can walk a big pile of topics and store them all in Redis never
to be used. Our default anon cache time for topics is only 60 seconds. Anon
cache is in place to avoid the "slashdot" effect where a single topic is
hit by 100s of people in one minute.

Sam Saffron b9954b53bb FIX: report cached controller and action to loggers
Previously we would treat all cached hits in anon cache as "other"

Sam Saffron 08743e8ac0 FEATURE: anon cache reports data to loggers
This allows custom plugins such as prometheus exporter to log how many
requests are stored in the anon cache vs used by the anon cache.

This metric allows us to fine tune cache behaviors

Sam Saffron 8cea78c833 Revert "FEATURE: Protect against replay attacks when using TLS 1.3 0-RTT (#8020)"
This reverts commit 39c31a3d76.

Sorry about this, we have decided againse supporting 0-RTT directly in
core, this can be supported with similar hacks to this commit in a
plugin.

That said, we recommend against using a 0-RTT proxy for the Discourse
app due to inherit risk of replay attacks.

UX: Improve error handling for common OmniAuth exceptions (#7991)
This displays more useful messages for the most common issues we see:
- CSRF (when the user switches browser)
- Invalid IAT (when the server clock is wrong)
- OAuth::Unauthorized for OAuth1 providers, when the credentials are incorrect

This commit also stops earlier for disabled authenticators. Now we stop at the request phase, rather than the callback phase.

Sam Saffron 1f47ed1ea3 PERF: message_bus will be deferred by server when flooded
The message_bus performs a fair amount of work prior to hijacking requests
this change ensures that if there is a situation where the server is flooded
message_bus will inform client to back off for 30 seconds + random(120 secs)

This back-off is ultra cheap and happens very early in the middleware.

It corrects a situation where a flood to message bus could cause the app
to become unresponsive

MessageBus update is here to ensure message_bus gem properly respects
Retry-After header and status 429.

Under normal state this code should never trigger, to disable raise the
value of DISCOURSE_REJECT_MESSAGE_BUS_QUEUE_SECONDS, default is to tell
message bus to go away if we are queueing for 100ms or longer

Sam Saffron 62141b6316 FEATURE: enable_performance_http_headers for performance diagnostics
This adds support for DISCOURSE_ENABLE_PERFORMANCE_HTTP_HEADERS
when set to `true` this will turn on performance related headers

```text
X-Redis-Calls: 10     # number of redis calls
X-Redis-Time: 1.02    # redis time in seconds
X-Sql-Commands: 102   # number of SQL commands
X-Sql-Time: 1.02      # duration in SQL in seconds
X-Queue-Time: 1.01    # time the request sat in queue (depends on NGINX)
```

To get queue time NGINX must provide: HTTP_X_REQUEST_START

We do not recommend you enable this without thinking, it exposes information
about what your page is doing, usually you would only enable this if you
intend to strip off the headers further down the stream in a proxy

FEATURE: Optional detailed performance logging for Sidekiq jobs (#7091)
By default, this does nothing. Two environment variables are available:

- `DISCOURSE_LOG_SIDEKIQ`

  Set to `"1"` to enable logging. This will log all completed jobs to `log/rails/sidekiq.log`, along with various db/redis/network statistics. This is useful to track down poorly performing jobs.

- `DISCOURSE_LOG_SIDEKIQ_INTERVAL`

  (seconds) Check running jobs periodically, and log their current duration. They will appear in the logs with `status:pending`. This is useful to track down jobs which take a long time, then crash sidekiq before completing.

Sam a19170a4c2 DEV: avoid require_dependency for some libs
This avoids require dependency on method_profiler and anon cache.

It means that if there is any change to these files the reloader will not pick it up.

Previously the reloader was picking up the anon cache twice causing it to double load on boot.

This caused warnings.

Long term my plan is to give up on require dependency and instead use:

FEATURE: Allow connecting associated accounts when two-factor is enabled (#6754)
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.

Sam ded84a4b58 PERF: improve performance once logged in rate limiter hits
If "logged in" is being forced anonymous on certain routes, trigger
the protection for any requests that spend 50ms queueing

This means that ...

1. You need to trip it by having 3 requests take longer than 1 second in 10 second interval
2. Once tripped, if your route is still spending 50m queueuing it will continue to be protected

This means that site will continue to function with almost no delays while it is scaling up to handle the new load

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
