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

Sam c531f4ded5 remove rails-observers
Rails yanked out observers many many years ago, instead the functionality
was yanked out to a gem that is very lightly maintained.

For example: if we want to upgrade to rails 5 there is no published gem

Internally the usage of observers had quite a few problem.

The series of refactors renamed a bunch of classes to give us more clarity
and removed some magic.

Andy Waite 3e50313fdc Prepare for separation of RSpec helper files
Since rspec-rails 3, the default installation creates two helper files:
* `spec_helper.rb`
* `rails_helper.rb`

`spec_helper.rb` is intended as a way of running specs that do not
require Rails, whereas `rails_helper.rb` loads Rails (as Discourse's
current `spec_helper.rb` does).

For more information:

https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/upgrade#default-helper-files

In this commit, I've simply replaced all instances of `spec_helper` with
`rails_helper`, and renamed the original `spec_helper.rb`.

This brings the Discourse project closer to the standard usage of RSpec
in a Rails app.

At present, every spec relies on loading Rails, but there are likely
many that don't need to. In a future pull request, I hope to introduce a
separate, minimal `spec_helper.rb` which can be used in tests which
don't rely on Rails.

category.

Sam 666264879c change it so all topics MUST include a category, we store a special uncategorized category to compensate
this cleans up a bunch of internals and removes some settings
