Sam Saffron 7d389df5e7 DEV: correct spec to allow for new default
b4bfc27b changes the default so the spec should be changed as well.

Krzysztof Kotlarek 427d54b2b0 DEV: Upgrading Discourse to Zeitwerk (#8098)
Zeitwerk simplifies working with dependencies in dev and makes it easier reloading class chains. 

We no longer need to use Rails "require_dependency" anywhere and instead can just use standard 
Ruby patterns to require files.

This is a far reaching change and we expect some followups here.

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"

This hinders analysis of cache performance and makes logging inaccurate

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 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

Penar Musaraj a4eb523af6 Track Discourse user agent pageviews as crawler
Since 5bfe051e, Discourse user agents are marked as non-crawlers (to avoid accidental blacklisting). This makes sure pageviews for these agents are tracked as crawler hits.

Sam Saffron 4ea21fa2d0 DEV: use #frozen_string_literal: true on all spec
This change both speeds up specs (less strings to allocate) and helps catch
cases where methods in Discourse are mutating inputs.

Overall we will be migrating everything to use #frozen_string_literal: true
it will take a while, but this is the first and safest move in this direction

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.
