The result of this markdown had different results in the composer preview and the post. This is solved by updating Loofah to the latest version and using html5 fragments like our user had reported. While the change was only needed in cooked_post_processor.rb for this fix, other areas also had to be updated due to various side effects.
It's very easy to forget to add `require 'rails_helper'` at the top of every core/plugin spec file, and omissions can cause some very confusing/sporadic errors.
By setting this flag in `.rspec`, we can remove the need for `require 'rails_helper'` entirely.
Headings with the exact same name generated exactly the same heading
names, which was invalid. This replaces the old code for generating
names for non-English headings which were using URI encode and resulted
in unreadable headings.
Poll markdown processing failed when there were any heading elements preceding a poll.
(Issue originally reported in babbebfb35 (commitcomment-42983768))
Adds an optional title attribute to polls. The rationale for this addition is that polls themselves didn't contain context/question and relied on post body to explain them. That context wasn't always obvious (e.g. when there are multiple polls in a single post) or available (e.g. when you display the poll breakdown - you see the answers, but not the question)
As a side note, here's a word on how the poll plugin works:
> We have a markdown poll renderer, which we use in the builder UI and the composer preview, but… when you submit a post, raw markdown is cooked into html (twice), then we extract data from the generated html and save it to the database. When it's render time, we first display the cooked html poll, and then extract some data from that html, get the data from the post's JSON (and identify that poll using the extracted html stuff) to then render the poll using widgets and the JSON data.
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
oga gem is automatically required by the aws gem
the oga gem retains about 1mb of memory, aws now uses nokogiri
This also removes the html normalize from the pretty text specs that was
a fair bit buggy as the polls test shows.
This adds the markdown.it engine to Discourse.

As the migration is going to take a while the new engine is default
disabled. To enable it you must change the hidden site setting:
enable_experimental_markdown_it.
This commit is a squash of many other commits, it also includes some
improvements to autospec (ability to run plugins), and a dev dependency
on the og gem for html normalization.
