679d556c90 [FIX] project creation: handling of mergebot info
- don't *fail* in `_compute_identity`, it causes issues when the token
  is valid but doesn't have `user:email` access as the request is
  aborted and saving doesn't work
- make `github_name` and `github_email` required rather than ad-hoc
  requiring them in `_compute_identity` (which doesn't work correctly)
- force copy of `github_name` and `github_email`, with o2ms being
  !copy this means duplicating projects now works out of the box (or
  should...)

Currently errors in `_compute_identity` are reported via logging which
is not great as it's not UI visible, should probably get moved to
chatter eventually but that's not currently enabled on projects.

b1d3278de1 [CHG] forwardport: perform forward porting without working copies
The goal is to reduce maintenance and odd disk interactions &
concurrency issues, by not creating concurrent clones, not having to
push forks back in the repository, etc... it also removes the need to
cleanup "scratch" working copies though that looks not to have been an
issue in a while.

The work is done on isolated objects without using or mutating refs,
so even concurrent work should not be a problem.

This turns out to not be any more verbose (less so if anything) than
using `cherry-pick`, as that is not really designed for scripted /
non-interactive use, or for squashing commits thereafter. Working
directly with trees and commits is quite a bit cleaner even without a
ton of helpers.

Much of the credit goes to Julia Evans for [their investigation of
3-way merges as the underpinnings of cherry-picking][3-way merge],
this would have been a lot more difficult if I'd had to rediscover the
merge-base trick independently.

A few things have been changed by this:

- The old trace/stderr from cherrypick has disappeared as it's
  generated by cherrypick, but for a non-interactive use it's kinda
  useless anyway so I probably should have looked into removing it
  earlier (I think the main use was investigation of the inflateinit
  issue).
- Error on emptied commits has to be hand-rolled as `merge-tree`
  couldn't care less, this is not hard but is a bit annoying.
- `merge-tree`'s conflict information only references raw commits,
  which makes sense, but requires updating a bunch of tests. Then
  again so does the fact that it *usually* doesn't send anything to
  stderr, so that's usually disappearing.

Conveniently `merge-tree` merges the conflict marker directly in the
files / tree so we don't have to mess about moving them back out of
the repository and into the working copy as I assume cherry-pick does,
which means we don't have to try and commit them back in ether. That
is a huge part of the gain over faffing about with the working copy.

Fixes #847

f303674434 [FIX] *: re-enable notification on status failure
If a PR gets approved *then* fails CI, there should be a notification
warning the author & reviewer since
48e08b657b, it even has a test, which
passes (in fact it has *two*, one of which is redundant, so merge
`test_ci_failure_after_review` into the later `test_ci_approved`).

*However* this is in runbot_merge, turns out in
fafa7ef437 some refactoring was done in
order to override the notification and customise it for *forward
ports* with a failed status... except that override never called its
`super()`, so as soon as forwardport is installed the base
notification stops working, and that's been that since October
2019 (had been added in March that year, ignoring deployment lag).

This can be revealed by adding the corresponding check in the
*forwardport* tests, revealing the failure.

This was a pain to track down, thankfully it reproduced relatively
easily locally.

While this could be resolved in the override, might as well fold it
into the base method in furtherance of #789: the mergebot is only
used by odoo, and only with both modules combined, so splitting them
is not useful. And furthermore it things should work fine with the
forwardport installed but unused.

fec3d39d19 [ADD] *: per-repository webhook secret
Currently webhook secrets are configured per *project* which is an
issue both because different repositories may have different
administrators and thus creates safety concerns, and because multiple
repositories can feed into different projects (e.g. on mergebot,
odoo-dev/odoo is both an ancillary repository to the main RD project,
and the main repository to the minor / legacy master-wowl
project). This means it can be necessary to have multiple projects
share the same secret as well, this then mandates the secret for more
repositories per (1).

This is a pain in the ass, so just detach secrets from projects and
link them *only* to repositories, it's cleaner and easier to manage
and set up progressively.

This requires a lot of changes to the tests, as they all need to
correctly configure the signaling.

For `runbot_merge` there was *some* setup sharing already via the
module-level `repo` fixtures`, those were merged into a conftest-level
fixture which could handle the signaling setup. A few tests which
unnecessarily set up repositories ad-hoc were also moved to the
fixture. But for most of the ad-hoc setup in `runbot_merge`, as well
as `forwardport` where it's all ad-hoc, events sources setup was just
appended as is. This should probably be cleaned up at one point, with
the various requirements collected and organised into a small set of
fixtures doing the job more uniformly.

cc9f239261 [IMP] forwardport: use ORT and zdiff3 for cherrypicks
- zdiff3 should provide better conflict annotations than diff3
- ORT might also provide less conflicts period
- always perform cherrypicks without rename limit, since we're
  re-trying every failure without rename limit, it seems like
  unnecessary work, assuming git only ever looks as far as it needs
- also enable copy support maybe...

c1e2e5a2e0 [REF] forwardport: update re_matches to not use a regex
Using a regex as the pattern is quite frustrating due to all the
escaping necessary, which in this refactoring I found out I'd missed,
multiple times.

Convert the pattern to something bespoke but not too complicated, we
may want to add anchoring support and a bit more finesse and the
future but for now straightforward "holes" seem to work well. I've
added support for capturing and even named groups even if this as yet
unnecessary and unused.

d4fa1fd353 [CHG] *: rewrite commands set, rework status management
This commit revisits the commands set in order to make it more
regular, and limit inconsistent command-sets, although it includes
pseudo-command aliases for common tasks now removed from the core set.

Hard Errors
===========

The previous iteration of the commands set would ignore any
non-command term in a command line. This has been changed to hard
error (and ignoring the entire thing) if any command is unknown or
invalid.

This fixes inconsistent / unexpected interpretations where a user
sends a command, then writes a novel on the same line some words of
which happen to *also* be commands, leading to merge states they did
not expect. They should now be told to fuck off.

Priority Restructuring
----------------------

The numerical priority system was pretty messy in that it confused
"staging priority" (in ways which were not entirely straightforward)
with overrides to other concerns.

This has now being split along all the axis, with separate command
subsets for:

- staging prioritisation, now separated between `default`, `priority`,
  and `alone`,

  - `default` means PRs are picked by an unspecified order when
    creating a staging, if nothing better is available
  - `priority` means PRs are picked first when staging, however if
    `priority` PRs don't fill the staging the rest will be filled with
    `default`, this mode did not previously exist
  - `alone` means the PRs are picked first, before splits, and only
    `alone` PRs can be part of the staging (which usually matches the
    modename)
- `skipchecks` overrides both statuses and approval checks, for the
  batch, something previously implied in `p=0`, but now
  independent. Setting `skipchecks` basically makes the entire batch
  `ready`.

  For consistency this also sets the reviewer implicitly: since
  skipchecks overrides both statuses *and approval*, whoever enables
  this mode is essentially the reviewer.
- `cancel` cancels any ongoing staging when the marked PR becomes
  ready again, previously this was also implied (in a more restricted
  form) by setting `p=0`

FWBot removal
=============

While the "forwardport bot" still exists as an API level (to segregate
access rights between tokens) it has been removed as an interaction
point, as part of the modules merge plan. As a result,

fwbot stops responding
----------------------

Feedback messages are now always sent by the mergebot, the
forward-porting bot should not send any message or notification
anymore.

commands moved to the merge bot
-------------------------------

- `ignore`/`up to` simply changes bot
- `close` as well
- `skipci` is now a choice / flag of an `fw` command, which denotes
  the forward-port policy,

  - `fw=default` is the old `ci` and resets the policy to default,
    that is wait for the PR to be merged to create forward ports, and
    for the required statuses on each forward port to be received
    before creating the next
  - `fw=skipci` is the old `skipci`, it waits for the merge of the
    base PR but then creates all the forward ports immediately (unless
    it gets a conflict)
  - `fw=skipmerge` immediately creates all the forward ports, without
    even waiting for the PR to be merged

    This is a completely new mode, and may be rather broken as until
    now the 'bot has always assumed the source PR had been merged.

approval rework
---------------

Because of the previous section, there is no distinguishing feature
between `mergebot r+` = "merge this PR" and `forwardbot r+` = "merge
this PR and all its parent with different access rights".

As a result, the two have been merged under a single `mergebot r+`
with heuristics attempting to provide the best experience:

- if approving a non-forward port, the behavior does not change
- else, with review rights on the source, all ancestors are approved
- else, as author of the original, approves all ancestors which descend
  from a merged PR
- else, approves all ancestors up to and including the oldest ancestor
  to which we have review rights

Most notably, the source's author is not delegated on the source or
any of its descendants anymore. This might need to be revisited if it
provides too restrictive.

For the very specialized need of approving a forward-port *and none of
its ancestors*, `review=` can now take a comma (`,`) separated list of
pull request numbers (github numbers, not mergebot ids).

Computed State
==============

The `state` field of pull requests is now computed. Hopefully this
makes the status more consistent and predictable in the long run, and
importantly makes status management more reliable (because reference
datum get updated naturally flowing to the state).

For now however it makes things more complicated as some of the states
have to be separately signaled or updated:

- `closed` and `error` are now separate flags
- `merge_date` is pulled down from forwardport and becomes the
  transition signal for ready -> merged
- `reviewed_by` becomes the transition signal for approval (might be a
  good idea to rename it...)
- `status` is computed from the head's statuses and overrides, and
  *that* becomes the validation state

Ideally, batch-level flags like `skipchecks` should be on, well, the
batch, and `state` should have a dependency on the batch. However
currently the batch is not a durable / permanent member of the system,
so it's a PR-level flag and a messy pile.

On notable change is that *forcing* the state to `ready` now does that
but also sets the reviewer, `skipchecks`, and overrides to ensure the
API-mediated readying does not get rolled back by e.g. the runbot
sending a status.

This is useful for a few types of automated / programmatic PRs
e.g. translation exports, where we set the state programmatically to
limit noise.

recursive dependency hack
-------------------------

Given a sequence of PRs with an override of the source, if one of the
PRs is updated its descendants should not have the override
anymore. However if the updated PR gets overridden, its descendants
should have *that* override.

This requires some unholy manipulations via an override of `modified`,
as the ORM supports recursive fields but not recursive
dependencies (on a different field).

unconditional followup scheduling
---------------------------------

Previously scheduling forward-port followup was contigent on the FW
policy, but it's not actually correct if the new PR is *immediately*
validated (which can happen now that the field is computed, if there
are no required statuses *or* all of the required statuses are
overridden by an ancestor) as nothing will trigger the state change
and thus scheduling of the fp followup.

The followup function checks all the properties of the batch to port,
so this should not result on incorrect ports. Although it's a bit more
expensive, and will lead to more spam.

Previously this would not happen because on creation of a PR the
validation task (commit -> PR) would still have to execute.

Misc Changes
============

- If a PR is marked as overriding / canceling stagings, it now does
  so on retry not just when setting initially.

  This was not handled at all previously, so a PR in P0 going into
  error due to e.g. a non-deterministic bug would be retried and still
  p=0, but a current staging would not get cancelled. Same when a PR
  in p=0 goes into error because something was failed, then is updated
  with a fix.
- Add tracking to a bunch of relevant PR fields.

  Post-mortem analysis currently generally requires going through the
  text logs to see what happened, which is annoying.

  There is a nondeterminism / inconsistency in the tracking which
  sometimes leads the admin user to trigger tracking before the bot
  does, leading to the staging tracking being attributed to them
  during tests, shove under the carpet by ignoring the user to whom
  that tracking is attributed.

  When multiple users update tracked fields in the same transaction
  all the changes are attributed to the first one having triggered
  tracking (?), I couldn't find why the admin sometimes takes over.
- added and leveraged support for enum-backed selection fields
- moved variuous fields from forwardport to runbot_merge
- fix a migration which had never worked and which never run (because
  I forgot to bump the version on the module)
- remove some unnecessary intermediate de/serialisation

270dfdd495 [REF] *: move most feedback messages to pseudo-templates
Current system makes it hard to iterate feedback messages and make
them clearer, this should improve things a touch.

Use a bespoke model to avoid concerns with qweb rendering
complexity (we just want GFM output and should not need logic).

Also update fwbot test setup to always configure an fwbot name, in
order to avoid ping messages closing the PRs they're talking
about, that took a while to debug, and given the old message I assume
I'd already hit it and just been too lazy to fix. This requires
updating a bunch of tests as fwbot ping are sent *to*
`fp_github_name`, but sent *from* the reference user (because that's
the key we set).

Note: noupdate on CSV files doesn't seem to work anymore, which isn't
great. But instead set tracking on the template's templates, it's not
quite as good but should be sufficient.

2009177ada [IMP] *: allow disabling staging on branch, remove fp target flag
- currently disabling staging only works globally, allow disabling on
  a single branch

  - use a toggle
  - remove a pair of tests which work specifically with `fp_target`,
    can't work with `active` (probably)
  - cleanup search of possible and active stagings, add relevant
    indexes and use direct search of relevant branches instead of
    looking up from the project

- also use toggle button for `active` on branches
- shitty workaround for upgrading DB: apparently mail really wants to
  have a `user_id` to do some weird thing, so need to re-add it after
  resetting everything

a563fcf907 [REM] forwardport: fp_sequence field
It's almost certainly not useful, save as a minor convenience for
tests: decorrelating the branch sequence and the fp sequence seems
like it would only be extremely confusing, and on the mergebot all the
fp_sequence values are set to the default while the sequence values
are set to something useful and sensible (kinda).

fb45f089b0 [FIX] forwardport: use diff3 for conflict style
Existing conflict style is the local default ("merge", most
likely). `diff3` is a lot more informative as it provides the common
ancestor's code for the hunk, which helps see how the two branches
diverged and thus resolve the conflict.

Even better would be zdiff3 but that's a bit too recent...

6b1f698c23 [IMP] forwardport: handling of updates causing conflicts on followups
If a PR is updated and has extent forward-ports, those forwardports
get updated automatically ("followup").

However there is an issue if the udpate causes a conflict in the
followup: the conflict gets silently pushed, and may fairly easily get
merged if it occurs in an area which the CI doesn't cover.

It's unclear what the policy really should be for this issue, and
there is no real way to *block* a pull request at the moment (save by
putting it in error at the mergebot level I guess?), so for now
clearly notify the user on both the modified PR and the followup,
with a comment on both.

We may want to revisit this eventually.
