Previously external domains were allowed in the client-side redirects, but not the server-side redirects. Now the behavior is to only allow local origins.
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
Fixes two issues:
1. Redirecting to an external origin's path after login did not work
2. User would be erroneously redirected to the external origin after logout

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.
At the moment core providers are hard-coded in Javascript, and plugin providers get added to the JS payload at compile time. This refactor means that we only ship enabled providers to the client.
* `rescue nil` is a really bad pattern to use in our code base.
We should rescue errors that we expect the code to throw and
not rescue everything because we're unsure of what errors the
code would throw. This would reduce the amount of pain we face
when debugging why something isn't working as expexted. I've
been bitten countless of times by errors being swallowed as a
result during debugging sessions.
While *sometimes* `no_js` was used for visitors without js (for example
disabling it on your browser) it was also used for some pages that were
disabled to JS capable browsers, including the 404 page.
Even worse, sometimes it was used on pages that *had* Javascript, such
as our `/activate-account` route. It has been renamed to `no_ember` to
indicate what it really is, a layout for the site that doesn't load our
Ember.js application.
