DEV: FloatKit (#23650)
This PR introduces three new concepts to Discourse codebase through an addon called "FloatKit":

- menu
- tooltip
- toast


## Tooltips
### Component

Simple cases can be express with an API similar to DButton:

```hbs
<DTooltip 
  @Label={{i18n "foo.bar"}}
  @ICON="check"
  @content="Something"
/>
```

More complex cases can use blocks:

```hbs
<DTooltip>
  <:trigger>
   {{d-icon "check"}}
   <span>{{i18n "foo.bar"}}</span>
  </:trigger>
  <:content>
   Something
  </:content>
</DTooltip>
```

### Service

You can manually show a tooltip using the `tooltip` service:

```javascript
const tooltipInstance = await this.tooltip.show(
  document.querySelector(".my-span"),
  options
)

// and later manual close or destroy it
tooltipInstance.close();
tooltipInstance.destroy();

// you can also just close any open tooltip through the service
this.tooltip.close();
```

The service also allows you to register event listeners on a trigger, it removes the need for you to manage open/close of a tooltip started through the service:

```javascript
const tooltipInstance = this.tooltip.register(
  document.querySelector(".my-span"),
  options
)

// when done you can destroy the instance to remove the listeners
tooltipInstance.destroy();
```

Note that the service also allows you to use a custom component as content which will receive `@data` and `@close` as args:

```javascript
const tooltipInstance = await this.tooltip.show(
  document.querySelector(".my-span"),
  { 
    component: MyComponent,
    data: { foo: 1 }
  }
)
```

## Menus

Menus are very similar to tooltips and provide the same kind of APIs:

### Component

```hbs
<DMenu @ICON="plus" @Label={{i18n "foo.bar"}}>
  <ul>
    <li>Foo</li>
    <li>Bat</li>
    <li>Baz</li>
  </ul>
</DMenu>
```

They also support blocks:

```hbs
<DMenu>
  <:trigger>
    {{d-icon "plus"}}
    <span>{{i18n "foo.bar"}}</span>
  </:trigger>
  <:content>
    <ul>
      <li>Foo</li>
      <li>Bat</li>
      <li>Baz</li>
    </ul>
  </:content>
</DMenu>
```

### Service

You can manually show a menu using the `menu` service:

```javascript
const menuInstance = await this.menu.show(
  document.querySelector(".my-span"),
  options
)

// and later manual close or destroy it
menuInstance.close();
menuInstance.destroy();

// you can also just close any open tooltip through the service
this.menu.close();
```

The service also allows you to register event listeners on a trigger, it removes the need for you to manage open/close of a tooltip started through the service:

```javascript
const menuInstance = this.menu.register(
   document.querySelector(".my-span"),
   options
)

// when done you can destroy the instance to remove the listeners
menuInstance.destroy();
```

Note that the service also allows you to use a custom component as content which will receive `@data` and `@close` as args:

```javascript
const menuInstance = await this.menu.show(
  document.querySelector(".my-span"),
  { 
    component: MyComponent,
    data: { foo: 1 }
  }
)
```


## Toasts

Interacting with toasts is made only through the `toasts` service.

A default component is provided (DDefaultToast) and can be used through dedicated service methods:

- this.toasts.success({ ... });
- this.toasts.warning({ ... });
- this.toasts.info({ ... });
- this.toasts.error({ ... });
- this.toasts.default({ ... });

```javascript
this.toasts.success({
  data: {
    title: "Foo",
    message: "Bar",
    actions: [
      {
        label: "Ok",
        class: "btn-primary",
        action: (componentArgs) => {
          // eslint-disable-next-line no-alert
          alert("Closing toast:" + componentArgs.data.title);
          componentArgs.close();
        },
      }
    ]
  },
});
```

You can also provide your own component:

```javascript
this.toasts.show(MyComponent, {
  autoClose: false,
  class: "foo",
  data: { baz: 1 },
})
```

[1.1.0] - 2021-12-15

Added

  • Adds addPosterIcons, which allows users to add multiple icons to a poster. The addition of this function also makes the existing addPosterIcon now an alias to this function. Users may now just use addPosterIcons for both one or many icons. This function allows users to now return many icons depending on an attrs.

[1.0.0] - 2021-11-25

Removed

  • Removes the addComposerUploadProcessor function, which is no longer used in favour of addComposerUploadPreProcessor. The former was used to add preprocessors for client side uploads via jQuery file uploader (described at https://github.com/blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload/wiki/Options#file-processing-options). The new addComposerUploadPreProcessor adds preprocessors for client side uploads in the form of an Uppy plugin. See https://uppy.io/docs/writing-plugins/ for the Uppy documentation, but other examples of preprocessors in core can be found in the UppyMediaOptimization and UppyChecksum classes. This has been done because of the overarching move towards Uppy in the Discourse codebase rather than jQuery fileupload, which will eventually be removed altogether as a broader effort to remove jQuery from the codebase.

Changed

  • Changes addComposerUploadHandler's behaviour. Instead of being only usable for single files at a time, now multiple files are sent to the upload handler at once. These multiple files are sent based on the groups in which they are added (e.g. multiple files selected from the system upload dialog, or multiple files dropped in to the composer). Files will be sent in buckets to the handlers they match.
