In 14cf8eacf1, we added the
`user_search_similar_results` site setting which when enabled will use
trigram matching for similarity search in `UserSearch`. However, we
noted that adding the `index_users_on_username_lower_trgm` index is
causing the PG planner to not use the `index_users_on_username_lower`
index when the `=` operator is used against the `username_lower` column.
Based on the PG mailing list discussion where support for the `=`
operator in gist_trgm_ops was being considered, it stated that "I also have checked that btree_gist is preferred over pg_trgm gist
index for equality search." This is however quite different from reality
on our own PG clusters where the btree index is not preferred leading to
significantly slower queries when the `=` operator is used.
Since the pg_trgm gist index is only used for queries when the `user_search_similar_results` site setting
is enabled, we decided to drop the feature instead as it is hidden and
disabled by default. As such, we can consider it experiemental and drop
it without deprecation.

This commit adds a new `about_page_hidden_groups` setting to exclude members of specific groups from the admin and moderator lists on the /about page.
Internal topic: t/137717.
### UI changes
All of the UI changes described are gated behind the `use_legacy_pageviews`
site setting.
This commit changes the admin dashboard pageviews report to
use the "Consolidated Pageviews with Browser Detection" report
introduced in 2f2da72747 with
the following changes:
* The report name is changed to "Site traffic"
* The pageview count on the dashboard is counting only using the new method
* The old "Consolidated Pageviews" report is renamed as "Consolidated Legacy Pageviews"
* By default "known crawlers" and "other" sources of pageviews are hidden on the report
When `use_legacy_pageviews` is `true`, we do not show or allow running
the "Site traffic" report for admins. When `use_legacy_pageviews` is `false`,
we do not show or allow running the following legacy reports:
* consolidated_page_views
* consolidated_page_views_browser_detection
* page_view_anon_reqs
* page_view_logged_in_reqs
### Historical data changes
Also part of this change is that, since we introduced our new "Consolidated
Pageviews with Browser Detection" report, some admins are confused at either:
* The lack of data before a certain date , which didn’t exist before
we started collecting it
* Comparing this and the current "Consolidated Pageviews" report data,
which rolls up "Other Pageviews" into "Anonymous Browser" and so it
appears inaccurate
All pageview data in the new report before the date where the _first_
anon or logged in browser pageview was recorded is now hidden.
This commit introduces a new hidden site setting: `group_pm_user_limit`, default to `1000` which will raise an error when attempting to create a PM target a large group.
A new setting attribute is used to define the areas (separated by `|`).
In addition, endpoint `/admin/config/site_settings.json` accepts new `filter_area` data.
This commit implements 2 new metrics/stats in the /about page for the _estimated_ numbers of unique visitors from the EU and the rest of the world. This new feature is currently off by default, but it can be enabled by turning on the hidden `display_eu_visitor_stats` site settings via the rails console.
There are a number of assumptions that we're making here in order to estimate the number of unique visitors, specifically:
1. we're assuming that the average of page views per anonymous visitor is similar to the average number of page views that a logged-in visitor makes, and
2. we're assuming that the ratio of logged in visitors from the EU is similar to the ratio of anonymous visitors from the EU
Discourse keeps track of the number of both logged-in and anonymous page views, and also the number of unique logged-in visitors and where they're from. So with those numbers and the assumptions above, we can estimate the number of unique anonymous visitors from the EU and the rest of the world.

Currently the push_notification_time_window_mins is set to 10
minutes by default. We want to change this to 1 minute, which is the
delay it has been set to on meta and our internal site already for over
a year now.
This conforms to the expectation users have that notifications are
delivered close to immediately.

Previously, we couldn't change the user agent name dynamically for onebox requests. In this commit, a new hidden site setting `onebox_user_agent` is created to override the default user agent value specified in the [initializer](c333e9d6e6/config/initializers/100-onebox_options.rb (L15)).

This commit promotes the new topic bulk action
menu introduced in 89883b2f51
to the main method of bulk selecting and performing
actions on topics. The site setting flag gating this
feature is deleted, and the old bulk select code is
deleted as well.
The new modal shows a loading spinner while operations
are taking place, allows selecting the action from a dropdown
instead of having a 2-step modal flow,
and also supports additional options for some operations, e.g.
allowing Close silently.
This commit introduces the foundation for a new design for the /about page that we're currently working on. The current version will remain available and still be the default until we finish the new version and are ready to roll out. To opt into the new version right now, add one or more group to the `experimental_redesigned_about_page_groups` site setting and members in those groups will get the new version.

GitHub auth tokens cannot be made with permissions to
access multiple organisations. This is quite limiting.
This commit changes the site setting to be a "secret list"
type, which allows for a key/value mapping where the value
is treated like a password in the UI.
Now when a GitHub URL is requested for oneboxing, the
org name from the URL is used to determine which token
to use for the request.
Just in case anyone used the old site setting already,
there is a migration to create a `default` entry
with that token in the new list setting, and for
a period of time we will consider that token valid to
use for all GitHub oneboxes as well.
This commit adds the ability to onebox private GitHub
commits, pull requests, issues, blobs, and actions using
a new `github_onebox_access_token` site setting. The token
must be set up in correctly to have access to the repos needed.
To do this successfully with the Oneboxer, we need to skip
redirects on the github.com host, otherwise we get a 404
on the URL before it is translated into a GitHub API URL
and has the appropriate headers added.

Basing this setting on referrer was too brittle --
the referrer header can easily be ommitted or changed.
Instead, for the small amount of use cases that this
site setting serves, we can use a group-based setting
instead, changing it to `cross_origin_opener_unsafe_none_groups`
instead.
This commit adds a hidden `s3_inventory_bucket_region` site setting to
specify the region of the `s3_inventory_bucket` when the `S3Inventory`
class initializes an instance of the `S3Helper`. By default, the
`S3Helper` class uses the value of the `s3_region` site setting but the
region of the `s3_inventory_bucket` is not always the same as the
`s3_region` configured.
This site setting has always been experimental and hidden since it was
added 7 years ago. Drop it to simplify the way we enable logging in a
logstash friendly way.
Adds experimental_flags_admin_page_enabled_groups (default "")
to remove the Moderation Flags link from the admin sidebar for now,
there are still a few bugfixes that need to be done before we
are comfortable with turning this on more widely. This is
a _temporary_ flag, we will be removing this once the feature
is more stable.
This commit continues work laid out by ffec8163b0 for the admin config page for the /about page. The last commit set up the user interface, and this one sets up all the wiring needed to make the input fields and save buttons actually work.

Adds a checkbox to filter untranslated text strings in the admin UI, behind a hidden and default `false` site setting `admin_allow_filter_untranslated_text`.
Many site settings can be distructive or have huge side-effects
for a site that the admin may not be aware of when changing it.
This commit introduces a `requires_confirmation` attribute that
can be added to any site setting. When it is true, a confirmation
dialog will open if that setting is changed in the admin UI,
optionally with a custom message that is defined in client.en.yml.
If the admin does not confirm, we reset the setting to its previous
clean value and do not save the new value.
Some tooling may rely on an unsafe-none cross origin opener policy to work. This change adds a hidden site setting that can be used to list referrers where we add this header instead of the default one configured in cross_origin_opener_policy_header.
A new admin setting called `enforce_second_factor_on_external_auth`. It allows users to authenticate using external providers even when 2FA is forced with `enforce_second_factor` site setting.
This commit introduces a hidden `s3_inventory_bucket` site setting which
replaces the `enable_s3_inventory` and `s3_configure_inventory_policy`
site setting.
The reason `enable_s3_inventory` and `s3_configure_inventory_policy`
site settings are removed is because this feature has technically been
broken since it was introduced. When the `enable_s3_inventory` feature
is turned on, the app will because configure a daily inventory policy for the
`s3_upload_bucket` bucket and store the inventories under a prefix in
the bucket. The problem here is that once the inventories are created,
there is nothing cleaning up all these inventories so whoever that has
enabled this feature would have been paying the cost of storing a whole
bunch of inventory files which are never used. Given that we have not
received any complains about inventory files inflating S3 storage costs,
we think that it is very likely that this feature is no longer being
used and we are looking to drop support for this feature in the not too
distance future.
For now, we will still support a hidden `s3_inventory_bucket` site
setting which site administrators can configure via the
`DISCOURSE_S3_INVENTORY_BUCKET` env.
