Why this change?
Pull requests can introduce flaky tests into the mix and we do not want
to be hiing that during the pull request process. While this does mean
builds for PR will be less stable than the `main` branch without
retries, we do not foresee this to be a problem long term since the
monitoring of flaky tests on the `main` branch will mean that the number
of flaky tests will eventually be reduced.
What does this change do?
1. Introduce the `DISCOURSE_TURBO_RSPEC_RETRY_AND_LOG_FLAKY_TESTS` env
variable which will initialize `TurboTest::Runner` with the `retry_and_log_flaky_tests`
kwarg set to true when set.
2. Change the tests workflow run to set `DISCOURSE_TURBO_RSPEC_RETRY_AND_LOG_FLAKY_TESTS` only when
the build type is `backend` or `system` and the `github.ref_name` is
`main`.
* FEATURE: core code, tests for feature to allow backups to removed based on a time window
* FEATURE: getting tests working for time-based backup
* FEATURE: getting tests running
* FEATURE: linting
It's very unlikely that something will be introduced which works under Ember 5 and not Ember 3. To reduce GitHub actions costs, flakiness, and visual noise, let's cut down the matrix so we're only using Ember 3 for the 'core frontend' job. All others can run under Ember 5.
This commit adds an additional toggle to our safe-mode system. When enabled, it will cause all deprecation messages to become exceptions. This gives admins a way to test their themes/plugins against upcoming Discourse changes without needing to use the browser developer tools.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_to_flag_posts site setting to flag_post_allowed_groups.
Note: In the original setting, "posts" is plural. I have changed this to "post" singular in the new setting to match others.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_to_edit_post site setting to edit_post_allowed_groups.
The old implementation will co-exist for a short period while I update any references in plugins and themes.
This change converts the min_trust_to_create_topic site setting to
create_topic_allowed_groups.

- Hides the old setting
- Adds the new site setting
- Add a deprecation warning
- Updates to use the new setting
- Adds a migration to fill in the new setting if the old setting was
changed
- Adds an entry to the site_setting.keywords section

What motivated this change?
Our builds on Github actions have been extremely flaky mostly due to system tests. This has led to a drop in confidence
in our test suite where our developers tend to assume that a failed job is due to a flaky system test. As a result, we
have had occurrences where changes that resulted in legitimate test failures are merged into the `main` branch because developers
assumed it was a flaky test.
What does this change do?
This change seeks to reduce the flakiness of our builds on Github Actions by automatically re-running RSpec tests once when
they fail. If a failed test passes subsequently in the re-run, we mark the test as flaky by logging it into a file on disk
which is then uploaded as an artifact of the Github workflow run. We understand that automatically re-runs will lead to
lower accuracy of our tests but we accept this as an acceptable trade-off since a fragile build has a much greater impact
on our developers' time. Internally, the Discourse development team will be running a service to fetch the flaky tests
which have been logged for internal monitoring.
How is the change implemented?
1. A `--retry-and-log-flaky-tests` CLI flag is added to the `bin/turbo_rspec` CLI which will then initialize `TurboTests::Runner`
with the `retry_and_log_flaky_tests` kwarg set to `true`.
2. When the `retry_and_log_flaky_tests` kwarg is set to `true` for `TurboTests::Runner`, we will register an additional
formatter `Flaky::FailuresLoggerFormatter` to the `TurboTests::Reporter` in the `TurboTests::Runner#run` method.
The `Flaky::FailuresLoggerFormatter` has a simple job of logging all failed examples to a file on disk when running all the
tests. The details of the failed example which are logged can be found in `TurboTests::Flaky::FailedExample.to_h`.
3. Once all the tests have been run once, we check the result for any failed examples and if there are, we read the file on
disk to fetch the `location_rerun_location` of the failed examples which is then used to run the tests in a new RSpec process.
In the rerun, we configure a `TurboTests::Flaky::FlakyDetectorFormatter` with RSpec which removes all failed examples from the log file on disk since those examples are not flaky tests. Note that if there are too many failed examples on the first run, we will deem the failures to likely not be due to flaky tests and not re-run the test failures. As of writing, the threshold of failed examples is set to 10. If there are more than 10 failed examples, we will not re-run the failures.
Ability to automatically generate migration when site setting name is changed.
Example usage: `rails generate site_setting_rename_migration site_description contact_email`
Now that we're using native `import()`, our main JS bundles might not even be parse-able by older browsers. In that case, `I18n` will never be defined, and so we need to account for that situation in the browser-update code.
Applies the embed_unlisted site setting consistently across topic embeds, including those created via the WP Discourse plugin. Relatedly, adds a embed exception to can_create_unlisted_topic? check. Users creating embedded topics are not always staff.
- sticky doesn't work well with overflow: hidden parents. These overflows were used to hide other issues which shouldn't exist anyways. If it causes issues we should fix the root cause.
- our `--header-offset` is changing a lot on safari while scrolling, sometimes with very unexpected value like: negative or very high value, which causes the navbar to appear at unexpected positions for few ms, this commit is using the value of the header on insert and not changing it after, it shouldn't cause any issue.
Why this change?
The code changes introduced in 5b91dc1844
resulted in errors being raised when `session.quit` is called when using
multiple sessions. From my debugging, this seems to be attributed to the
fact that the change introduced resulted in multiple sessions sharing
the same instance of `Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Http::Default`. While
sharing the same instance in theory should be fine, but the problem is
that `Selenium::WebDriver::Driver` will mutate the `server_url` of the
client in `Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Bridge`. This is problematic
because each session created by capbyara relies on a different server
URL and this mutation causes all sorts of weird errors to occur.
To reproduce the problem, run `LOAD_PLUGINS=1 rspec plugins/chat/spec/system/send_message_spec.rb:76`
locally while excluding the changes in this commit.
This change converts the min_trust_to_edit_wiki_post site setting to edit_wiki_post_allowed_groups.

Update to top_page_default_timeframe description to clarify how the setting works. It adjusts automatically for logged in users depending on their last visit.
