Previously, the preview server docker image was based on Debian 8
(jessie). Recently, `jessie-updates` and `jessie-backborts` were removed
from the Debian mirrors ([more info][1]), thus breaking new builds of
the image.
Instead of updating `/etc/apt/sources.list` to remove the obsolete
sources, this commit upgrades to Debian 9 (stretch).
(The GCE VM running the preview server docker container was also
upgraded from Debian 8 to 9 this morning.)
---
Other changes:
- Removed dependency on `chkconfig`, which is not supported on Debian 9.
- Installing `nginx` from the regular repositories (instead of
`*-backports).
- Upgraded to `pm2` v3, which can handle hooking itself up to system
startup better (without `chkconfig` - see above).
- Updated tests to reflect the fact that `nginx` has dropped the reason
phrase in response status lines for HTTP/2 (in compliance with
[the spec][2]). (HTTP/1.1: `HTTP/1.1 200 OK` | HTTP/2: `HTTP/2 200`)

PR Close#29976
There several reasons why PRs cannot have (public) previews:
- The PR did not affect any relevant files (e.g. non-spec files in
`aio/` or `packages/`).
- The PR cannot be automatically verified as "trusted" (based on its
author or labels).
Note:
The endpoint does not check whether there currently is a (public)
preview for the specified PR; only whether there can be one.
PR Close#25671
Previously, Travis pushed the build artitfacts to the preview server.
This required us to use JWT to secure the POST request from Travis, to
ensure we couldn't receive malicious builds.
JWT has been deprecated and we are moving our builds to CircleCI.
This commit rewrites the TypeScript part of the preview server that
handles converting build artifact into hosted previews of the docs.
This commit adds an API endpoint for notifying the preview server about PR
updates (`/pr-updated`). According to the update, the preview server can take
several actions. Currently, it will only check and (if necessary) update the
PR's preview visibility (but more actions could be supported in the future).
The API can be used with an automatic trigger (e.g. a GitHub webhook) to
instantly update a PR's preview visibility when it changes.
Fixes#16526
Use the 7 first characters of the 40-chars long SHAs for shorter/cleaner URLs.
The collision probability is extremely low (since all SHAs are further
"namespaced" under the corresponding PR). In case of a collision, the second PR
will not be deployed, in order to avoid overwriting the original build.
(This is a design decision to keep the implementation simple. It can be changed
later if necessary.)
