Backport #25417 by @wxiaoguang
Update WorkPath/WORK_PATH related documents, remove out-dated
information.
Remove "StaticRootPath" on the admin config display page, because few
end user really need it, it only causes misconfiguration.

Backport #25944
The "creating dir/file during load config" is a longstanding and complex
problem.
This PR only does a quick patch, it still needs more refactorings in the
future.
Fix#25938
(cherry picked from commit 5c3662b902)
It breaks existing instances that would otherwise work perfectly
fine. Failing to start an instance should only happen when there is a
compelling reason to do so, for instance if the `app.ini` could not be
modified in a way that is backward compatible. If the only motivation
is to remove the setting for cosmetic reason, it must not be fatal.

Backport #25920 by @KN4CK3R
Got the same problem as #25915 when updating an instance. The
`log.Fatal` should have been marked as breaking in #23911.
This PR adds a notice that the system is shutting down because of the
deprecated setting.

FORGEJO_* environment variables are set to the corresponding GITEA_*
variable when the cli starts. This approach is intended to minimize
the conflicts on rebase. All occurences of GITEA_* are left untouched
in the codebase and they are only changed to FORGEJO_* if exposed to
the user.

Backport #25648
Replace #25580Fix#19453
The problem was: when users set "GITEA__XXX__YYY" , the "install page"
doesn't respect it.
So, to make the result consistent and avoid surprising end users, now
the "install page" also writes the environment variables to the config
file.
And, to make things clear, there are enough messages on the UI to tell
users what will happen.
There are some necessary/related changes to `environment-to-ini.go`:
* The "--clear" flag is removed and it was incorrectly written there.
The "clear" operation should be done if INSTALL_LOCK=true
* The "--prefix" flag is removed because it's never used, never
documented and it only causes inconsistent behavior.
The only conflict during backport is "ui divider" in
templates/install.tmpl

## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
Before this, `DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL` cound be set to any custom URLs like
`https://gitea.com` or `http://your-git-server,https://gitea.com`, and
the default value was `https://gitea.com`.
But now, `DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL` supports only
`github`(`https://github.com`) or `self`(the root url of current Gitea
instance), and the default value is `github`.
If it has configured with a URL, an error log will be displayed and it
will fallback to `github`.
Actually, what we really want to do is always make it
`https://github.com`, however, this may not be acceptable for some
instances of internal use, so there's extra support for `self`, but no
more, even `https://gitea.com`.
Please note that `uses: https://xxx/yyy/zzz` always works and it does
exactly what it is supposed to do.
Although it's breaking, I belive it should be backported to `v1.20` due
to some security issues.

More fix for #24981
* #24981Close#22361, #25552
* #22361
* #25552
There were many patches for Gitea's sub-commands to satisfy the facts:
* Some sub-commands shouldn't output any log, otherwise the git protocol
would be broken
* Sometimes the users want to see "verbose" or "quiet" outputs
That's a longstanding problem, and very fragile. This PR is only a quick
patch for the problem.
In the future, the sub-command system should be refactored to a clear
solution.
----
Other changes:
* Use `ReplaceAllWriters` to replace
`RemoveAllWriters().AddWriters(writer)`, then it's an atomic operation.
* Remove unnecessary `syncLevelInternal` calls, because
`AddWriters/addWritersInternal` already calls it.
Backport #25480 by @wxiaoguang
Fix#25481
The `InitWorkPathAndCommonConfig` calls `LoadCommonSettings` which does
many checks like "current user is root or not".
Some commands like "environment-to-ini" shouldn't do such check, because
it might be run with "root" user at the moment (eg: the docker's setup
script)
ps: in the future, the docker's setup script should be improved to avoid
Gitea's command running with "root"

Backport #25330
# The problem
There were many "path tricks":
* By default, Gitea uses its program directory as its work path
* Gitea tries to use the "work path" to guess its "custom path" and
"custom conf (app.ini)"
* Users might want to use other directories as work path
* The non-default work path should be passed to Gitea by GITEA_WORK_DIR
or "--work-path"
* But some Gitea processes are started without these values
* The "serv" process started by OpenSSH server
* The CLI sub-commands started by site admin
* The paths are guessed by SetCustomPathAndConf again and again
* The default values of "work path / custom path / custom conf" can be
changed when compiling
# The solution
* Use `InitWorkPathAndCommonConfig` to handle these path tricks, and use
test code to cover its behaviors.
* When Gitea's web server runs, write the WORK_PATH to "app.ini", this
value must be the most correct one, because if this value is not right,
users would find that the web UI doesn't work and then they should be
able to fix it.
* Then all other sub-commands can use the WORK_PATH in app.ini to
initialize their paths.
* By the way, when Gitea starts for git protocol, it shouldn't output
any log, otherwise the git protocol gets broken and client blocks
forever.
The "work path" priority is: WORK_PATH in app.ini > cmd arg --work-path
> env var GITEA_WORK_DIR > builtin default
The "app.ini" searching order is: cmd arg --config > cmd arg "work path
/ custom path" > env var "work path / custom path" > builtin default
## ⚠️ BREAKING
If your instance's "work path / custom path / custom conf" doesn't meet
the requirements (eg: work path must be absolute), Gitea will report a
fatal error and exit. You need to set these values according to the
error log.
Backport #25395 by @wxiaoguang
That's a longstanding INI package problem: the "MustXxx" calls change
the option values, and the following "Save" will save a lot of garbage
options into the user's config file.
Ideally we should refactor the INI package to a clear solution, but it's
a huge work.
A clear workaround is what this PR does: when "Save", load a clear INI
instance and save it.
Partially fix#25377, the "install" page needs more fine tunes.

Follow up #22405Fix#20703
This PR rewrites storage configuration read sequences with some breaks
and tests. It becomes more strict than before and also fixed some
inherit problems.
- Move storage's MinioConfig struct into setting, so after the
configuration loading, the values will be stored into the struct but not
still on some section.
- All storages configurations should be stored on one section,
configuration items cannot be overrided by multiple sections. The
prioioty of configuration is `[attachment]` > `[storage.attachments]` |
`[storage.customized]` > `[storage]` > `default`
- For extra override configuration items, currently are `SERVE_DIRECT`,
`MINIO_BASE_PATH`, `MINIO_BUCKET`, which could be configured in another
section. The prioioty of the override configuration is `[attachment]` >
`[storage.attachments]` > `default`.
- Add more tests for storages configurations.
- Update the storage documentations.

The INI package has many bugs and quirks, and in fact it is
unmaintained.
This PR is the first step for the INI package refactoring:
* Use Gitea's "config_provider" to provide INI access
* Deprecate the INI package by golangci.yml rule
It's been disabled by default since 1.17
(https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/18914), and it never really
delivered any benefit except being another cache layer that has its own
unsolved invalidation issues. HTTP cache works, we don't need two cache
layers at the browser for assets.
## ⚠️ BREAKING
You can remove the config `[ui].USE_SERVICE_WORKER` from your `app.ini`
now.
As discussed in
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/24953#issuecomment-1565630156.
## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
1. The `ui.THEME_COLOR_META_TAG` setting has been removed. If you still
need to set the `theme-color` meta tag, add it via
`$GITEA_CUSTOM/templates/custom/header.tmpl` instead.
2. The non-standard `default-theme` meta-tag added in
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/13809 has been removed. Third
party code that needs to obtain the currently loaded theme should use
the `theme-<name>` class on the `<html>` node instead, which reflect the
currently active theme.
This adds the ability to pin important Issues and Pull Requests. You can
also move pinned Issues around to change their Position. Resolves#2175.

The Design was mostly copied from the Projects Board.
## Implementation
This uses a new `pin_order` Column in the `issue` table. If the value is
set to 0, the Issue is not pinned. If it's set to a bigger value, the
value is the Position. 1 means it's the first pinned Issue, 2 means it's
the second one etc. This is dived into Issues and Pull requests for each
Repo.
## TODO
- [x] You can currently pin as many Issues as you want. Maybe we should
add a Limit, which is configurable. GitHub uses 3, but I prefer 6, as
this is better for bigger Projects, but I'm open for suggestions.
- [x] Pin and Unpin events need to be added to the Issue history.
- [x] Tests
- [x] Migration
**The feature itself is currently fully working, so tester who may find
weird edge cases are very welcome!**

Many users have the requirement to customize the git config. This PR
introduces an easy way: put the options in Gitea's app.ini
`[git.config]`, then the config options will be applied to git config.
And it can support more flexible default config values, eg: now
`diff.algorithm=histogram` by default. According to:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/32367597/4754037 , `histogram diff` is
efficient and doesn't like to cause server-side problems.

## ⚠️ Breaking
The `log.<mode>.<logger>` style config has been dropped. If you used it,
please check the new config manual & app.example.ini to make your
instance output logs as expected.
Although many legacy options still work, it's encouraged to upgrade to
the new options.
The SMTP logger is deleted because SMTP is not suitable to collect logs.
If you have manually configured Gitea log options, please confirm the
logger system works as expected after upgrading.
## Description
Close#12082 and maybe more log-related issues, resolve some related
FIXMEs in old code (which seems unfixable before)
Just like rewriting queue #24505 : make code maintainable, clear legacy
bugs, and add the ability to support more writers (eg: JSON, structured
log)
There is a new document (with examples): `logging-config.en-us.md`
This PR is safer than the queue rewriting, because it's just for
logging, it won't break other logic.
## The old problems
The logging system is quite old and difficult to maintain:
* Unclear concepts: Logger, NamedLogger, MultiChannelledLogger,
SubLogger, EventLogger, WriterLogger etc
* Some code is diffuclt to konw whether it is right:
`log.DelNamedLogger("console")` vs `log.DelNamedLogger(log.DEFAULT)` vs
`log.DelLogger("console")`
* The old system heavily depends on ini config system, it's difficult to
create new logger for different purpose, and it's very fragile.
* The "color" trick is difficult to use and read, many colors are
unnecessary, and in the future structured log could help
* It's difficult to add other log formats, eg: JSON format
* The log outputer doesn't have full control of its goroutine, it's
difficult to make outputer have advanced behaviors
* The logs could be lost in some cases: eg: no Fatal error when using
CLI.
* Config options are passed by JSON, which is quite fragile.
* INI package makes the KEY in `[log]` section visible in `[log.sub1]`
and `[log.sub1.subA]`, this behavior is quite fragile and would cause
more unclear problems, and there is no strong requirement to support
`log.<mode>.<logger>` syntax.
## The new design
See `logger.go` for documents.

Regression of #24536. If the user doesn't explicitly disable Actions, it
will be enabled.
1. Gitea will call `loadRepositoryFrom` before `loadActionsFrom`.
25d4f95df2/modules/setting/setting.go (L234-L237)
2. In `loadRepositoryFrom`,
`rootCfg.Section("actions").Key("ENABLED").MustBool(true)` will set
`actions.ENABLED` with `true`.
25d4f95df2/modules/setting/repository.go (L313-L315)
3. In `loadActionsFrom`, `rootCfg.Section("actions")` will get a section
with Actions enabled.
25d4f95df2/modules/setting/actions.go (L23-L26)
Although the cause of the problem was using `true` by copy-paste
mistake, it also surprised me that
**`rootCfg.Section("actions").Key("ENABLED").MustBool(true)` doesn't
only read, but also write.**
Make mailer SMTP check have timed context
Otherwise Gitea may block for long time if the DNS request blocks.

According to the discussion with DanielGibson, the default "20m" seems
too short. It would make LFS fail if the file is large / network is
slow.
I think relaxing this timeout doesn't have side affect. So change the
default value to 24h, IMO that should be long enough.
## ⚠️ BREAKING
If admins want the previous timeout, they should set the setting
`[server].LFS_HTTP_AUTH_EXPIRY`.
# ⚠️ Breaking
Many deprecated queue config options are removed (actually, they should
have been removed in 1.18/1.19).
If you see the fatal message when starting Gitea: "Please update your
app.ini to remove deprecated config options", please follow the error
messages to remove these options from your app.ini.
Example:
```
2023/05/06 19:39:22 [E] Removed queue option: `[indexer].ISSUE_INDEXER_QUEUE_TYPE`. Use new options in `[queue.issue_indexer]`
2023/05/06 19:39:22 [E] Removed queue option: `[indexer].UPDATE_BUFFER_LEN`. Use new options in `[queue.issue_indexer]`
2023/05/06 19:39:22 [F] Please update your app.ini to remove deprecated config options
```
Many options in `[queue]` are are dropped, including:
`WRAP_IF_NECESSARY`, `MAX_ATTEMPTS`, `TIMEOUT`, `WORKERS`,
`BLOCK_TIMEOUT`, `BOOST_TIMEOUT`, `BOOST_WORKERS`, they can be removed
from app.ini.
# The problem
The old queue package has some legacy problems:
* complexity: I doubt few people could tell how it works.
* maintainability: Too many channels and mutex/cond are mixed together,
too many different structs/interfaces depends each other.
* stability: due to the complexity & maintainability, sometimes there
are strange bugs and difficult to debug, and some code doesn't have test
(indeed some code is difficult to test because a lot of things are mixed
together).
* general applicability: although it is called "queue", its behavior is
not a well-known queue.
* scalability: it doesn't seem easy to make it work with a cluster
without breaking its behaviors.
It came from some very old code to "avoid breaking", however, its
technical debt is too heavy now. It's a good time to introduce a better
"queue" package.
# The new queue package
It keeps using old config and concept as much as possible.
* It only contains two major kinds of concepts:
* The "base queue": channel, levelqueue, redis
* They have the same abstraction, the same interface, and they are
tested by the same testing code.
* The "WokerPoolQueue", it uses the "base queue" to provide "worker
pool" function, calls the "handler" to process the data in the base
queue.
* The new code doesn't do "PushBack"
* Think about a queue with many workers, the "PushBack" can't guarantee
the order for re-queued unhandled items, so in new code it just does
"normal push"
* The new code doesn't do "pause/resume"
* The "pause/resume" was designed to handle some handler's failure: eg:
document indexer (elasticsearch) is down
* If a queue is paused for long time, either the producers blocks or the
new items are dropped.
* The new code doesn't do such "pause/resume" trick, it's not a common
queue's behavior and it doesn't help much.
* If there are unhandled items, the "push" function just blocks for a
few seconds and then re-queue them and retry.
* The new code doesn't do "worker booster"
* Gitea's queue's handlers are light functions, the cost is only the
go-routine, so it doesn't make sense to "boost" them.
* The new code only use "max worker number" to limit the concurrent
workers.
* The new "Push" never blocks forever
* Instead of creating more and more blocking goroutines, return an error
is more friendly to the server and to the end user.
There are more details in code comments: eg: the "Flush" problem, the
strange "code.index" hanging problem, the "immediate" queue problem.
Almost ready for review.
TODO:
* [x] add some necessary comments during review
* [x] add some more tests if necessary
* [x] update documents and config options
* [x] test max worker / active worker
* [x] re-run the CI tasks to see whether any test is flaky
* [x] improve the `handleOldLengthConfiguration` to provide more
friendly messages
* [x] fine tune default config values (eg: length?)
