Prior to this commit, we didn't have RTL versions of our admin and plugins CSS bundles and we always served LTR versions of those bundles even when users used an RTL locale, causing admin and plugins UI elements to never look as good as when an LTR locale was used. Example of UI issues prior to this commit were: missing margins, borders on the wrong side and buttons too close to each other etc.
This commit creates an RTL version for the admin CSS bundle as well as RTL bundles for all the installed plugins and serves those RTL bundles to users/sites who use RTL locales.
What is the problem?
There are two problems being fixed here:
1. When opening the composer, we are seeing multiple requests made to
the `/composer_messages` endpoint. This is due to our use of the
`transitionend` event on the `#reply-control` element. The event is
fired once for each transition event and the `#reply-control` element
has multiple transition events.
2. System tests have animations disabled so the `transitionend` event
does not fire at all.
What is the solution?
Instead of relying on the `transitionend` event, we can instead just
observer the `composerState` property of the `ComposerBody` component
and trigger the `composer:opened` appEvent with a delay that is similar
to the transition duration used for the `ComposerBody` component.
We currently have some CSS rules in `common/base/rtl.scss` that were added to workaround shortcomings of the R2 gem that we used to use to generate versions of our CSS that are suitable for RTL layouts. Those workarounds are mostly duplicates of existing rules with the only difference being that they're flipped to suit RTL layouts (e.g. `padding-left` is changed to `padding-right` and vice versa).
However, we've recently replaced R2 with `rtlcss` which doesn't have those shortcomings of R2 (see f94951147e) which means those workarounds/duplicate rules need to be removed because they're getting flipped by `rltcss`, essentially reverting them to their original LTR version and causing issues with RTL layouts.
This commit removes those workarounds that are no longer needed, and cleans up the the file that contains our RTL-specific CSS.

Allow admins to edit Community section. This includes drag and drop reorder, change names, delete and reset to default.
Visual improvements introduced in edit community section modal are available in edit custom section form as well. For example:
- drag and drop links to change their position;
- smaller icon picker.
When a user chooses to move a topic/message to an existing topic/message, they can now opt to merge the posts chronologically (using a checkbox in the UI).
Before this commit chat was applying a fixed height on everything under the `/chat` route. It's only really needed on the channel page with the composer at the bottom of the page.
This commits makes the following changes:
- moves height limitation from `#main-outlet-wrapper` to `.chat-channel`
- makes browse channel page and members list page full height and rely on main document scrollbar
- adds height computation for draft header and direct message creator block to ensure the height is correct when creating a draft channel
- makes chat index full height to rely on the browser scrollbar. As a result the <kbd> + </kbd> button used on mobile to create a direct message as been moved out of `<ChannelsList>` into the chat index template
- sidebar height was relying on chat setting a max height, as a result the height computation of sidebar has been changed to work correctly, especially with an opened keyboard on mobile or ipad
- Update welcome topic copy
- Edit the welcome topic automatically when the title or description changes
- Remove “Create your Welcome Topic” banner/CTA
- Add "edit welcome topic" user tip
Change mechanism handling `more` button for sidebar.
Before it was using HTML details tag.
To make tests more reliable, we are switching to use ember runloop.
* DEV: move sidebar community section to database
Before, community section was hard-coded. In the future, we are planning to allow admins to edit it. Therefore, it has to be moved to database to `custom_sections` table.
Few steps and simplifications has to be made:
- custom section was hidden behind `enable_custom_sidebar_sections` feature flag. It has to be deleted so all forums, see community section;
- migration to add `section_type` column to sidebar section to show it is a special type;
- migration to add `segment` column to sidebar links to determine if link should be displayed in primary section or in more section;
- simplify more section to have one level only (secondary section links are merged);
- ensure that links like `everything` are correctly tracking state;
- make user an anonymous links position consistence. For example, from now on `faq` link for user and anonymous is visible in more tab;
- delete old community-section template.
This will automatically adjust when browser UI is shown/hidden (e.g. when scrolling up/down on mobile Safari).
Similar approach to c82094cd9d, which targeted the 'slide-in' version of menus.
As a single example, if a `<kbd>` tag is wrapped by a `<a>` link, it doesn't inherit the link color:
`[<kbd>❓ **Support**</kbd>](https://meta.discourse.org)`
It's because the `<kbd>` tag has a `color: var(--primary);` CSS rule which seems superfluous.
If we disable it, the `<kbd>` tag inherits all the normal colors (including the link color 👌).
The direct `<kbd>` parent that assigns the text color is `<html>` (can't go higher!) which has an identical `color: var(--primary);`.
WCAG palettes don't seem to assign specific colors in this context.
It seems fairly safe to remove `color: var(--primary);` from `<kbd>` so it won't interfere anymore with its content.
