When trying to create a new automation based on a scriptable that has "force_triggerable" enable, it would break because of a typo in the code.
This fixes the typo and add a spec to ensure this code path is tested.
⚠️ This commit is a revert of a revert due to a migration which was causing `{}` metadata to be transformed into `{"value": [null]}`. The new migration shouldn't cause this and will also clean the existing errors, there shouldn't be any data loss given the affected fields where not containing actual data. We might want to stop storing these empty fields in the future.
To achieve it, this commit does the following:
- create a new `groups field`, ideally we would have reused the existing group field, but many automations now have the expectation that this field will return a group id and not an array of group ids, which makes it a dangerous change
- alter the code in `post_created_edited` to use this new groups field and change the logic to use an array
- migrate the existing group fields post_created_edited automations to change name from `restricted_group` to `restricted_groups`, the component from `group` to `groups` and the metadata from `{"value": integer}` to `{"value": [integer]}`
<!-- NOTE: All pull requests should have tests (rspec in Ruby, qunit in JavaScript). If your code does not include test coverage, please include an explanation of why it was omitted. -->

A previous refactor has prevented errors to show correctly. The guilt of the issue is that we were not calling the error variable correctly in the templates.
This commit also adds a spec for this case, and removes the need for `I18n.backend.store_translations` in specs so we don't have to write too much boilerplate each time we write a spec.
The automation plugin has 4 custom field types that are array typed. However, array typed custom fields are deprecated and should be migrated to JSON type.
This commit does a couple of things:
1. Migrate all four custom fields to JSON
2. Fix a couple of small bugs that have been discovered while migrating the custom fields to JSON (see the comments on this commit's PR for details https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/26939)
Recurring automations are triggered by a scheduled job that runs every minute and checks for due automations, runs them and then marks as them as completed (by deleting the `PendingAutomation` record). However, the job is currently subject to a race condition where a recurring automation can be executed more than once at its due date if it takes more than a minute to finish.
This commit adds a mutex around the code that triggers the recurring automation so that no concurrent executions can happen for a single automation.

It's currently possible to setup multiple automation rules that trigger each other resulting in an infinite loop. To prevent that, this commit adds a global "circuit breaker" that prevents all automations from triggering while an automation rule is executing.

Prior to this fix, any change to an automation would reset `pending_automations`, now we only do it if any value related to recurrence (start_date, interval, frequency, execute_at...) has been changed.
It means that any trigger creating `pending_automations` now needs to manage them in the `on_update` callback.
This commit adds a new option to the `user_updated` trigger of the automation plugin to only trigger an automation for new users that join after the automation is enabled.
