Fix#31002
1. Mention Make sure `Host` and `X-Fowarded-Proto` headers are correctly passed to Gitea
2. Clarify the basic requirements and move the "general configuration" to the top
3. Add a comment for the "container registry"
4. Use 1.21 behavior if the reverse proxy is not correctly configured

Follow #30454
And fix#24957
When using "preferred_username", if no such field,
`extractUserNameFromOAuth2` (old `getUserName`) shouldn't return an
error. All other USERNAME options do not return such error.
And fine tune some logic and error messages, make code more stable and
more friendly to end users.
Initial support for #25680
This PR only adds some simple styles from GitHub, it is big enough and
it focuses on adding the necessary framework-level supports. More styles
could be fine-tuned later.
* "mail/issue/default.tmpl": the body is rendered by backend
`markdown.RenderString() HTML`, it has been already sanitized
* "repo/settings/webhook/base_list.tmpl": "Description" is prepared by
backend `ctx.Tr`, it doesn't need to be sanitized
Mainly for MySQL/MSSQL.
It is important for Gitea to use case-sensitive database charset
collation. If the database is using a case-insensitive collation, Gitea
will show startup error/warning messages, and show the errors/warnings
on the admin panel's Self-Check page.
Make `gitea doctor convert` work for MySQL to convert the collations of
database & tables & columns.
* Fix#28131
## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
It is not quite breaking, but it's highly recommended to convert the
database&table&column to a consistent and case-sensitive collation.
Backport #28587, the only conflict is the test file.
The CORS code has been unmaintained for long time, and the behavior is

If the AppURL(ROOT_URL) is an HTTPS URL, then the COOKIE_SECURE's
default value should be true.
And, if a user visits an "http" site with "https" AppURL, they won't be
able to login, and they should have been warned. The only problem is
that the "language" can't be set either in such case, while I think it
is not a serious problem, and it could be fixed easily if needed.

Replace #21790
And close#25965 by the way (it needs a separate fix for 1.20)
Major changes:
1. Move "gitea convert" to "gitea doctor conver". The old "gitea doctor"
still works as a hidden sub-command (to avoid breaking)
2. Do not write "doctor.log" by default, it's not useful in most cases
and causes bugs like 25965
3. Improve documents
4. Fix the "help" commands. Before, the "./gitea doctor" can't show the
sub-command help correctly (regression of the last cli/v2 refactoring)
After this PR:
```
./gitea help # show all sub-commands for the app
./gitea doctor # show the sub-commands for the "doctor"
./gitea doctor help # show the sub-commands for the "doctor", as above
```
Replace #25892
Close #21942

Major changes:
1. Serve "robots.txt" and ".well-known/security.txt" in the "public"
custom path
* All files in "public/.well-known" can be served, just like
"public/assets"
3. Add a test for ".well-known/security.txt"
4. Simplify the "FileHandlerFunc" logic, now the paths are consistent so
the code can be simpler
5. Add CORS header for ".well-known" endpoints
6. Add logs to tell users they should move some of their legacy custom
public files

Replace #10912
And there are many new tests to cover the CLI behavior
There were some concerns about the "option order in hook scripts"
(https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/10912#issuecomment-1137543314),
it's not a problem now. Because the hook script uses `/gitea hook
--config=/app.ini pre-receive` format. The "config" is a global option,
it can appear anywhere.
----
## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
This PR does it best to avoid breaking anything. The major changes are:
* `gitea` itself won't accept web's options: `--install-port` / `--pid`
/ `--port` / `--quiet` / `--verbose` .... They are `web` sub-command's
options.
* Use `./gitea web --pid ....` instead
* `./gitea` can still run the `web` sub-command as shorthand, with
default options
* The sub-command's options must follow the sub-command
* Before: `./gitea --sub-opt subcmd` might equal to `./gitea subcmd
--sub-opt` (well, might not ...)
* After: only `./gitea subcmd --sub-opt` could be used
* The global options like `--config` are not affected
Move `public/*` to `public/assets/*`
Some old PRs (like #15219) introduced inconsistent directory system.
For example: why the local directory "public" is accessed by
`http://site/assets`? How to serve the ".well-known" files properly in
the public directory?
For convention rules, the "public" directory is widely used for the
website's root directory. It shouldn't be an exception for Gitea.
So, this PR makes the things consistent:
* `http://site/assets/foo` means `{CustomPath}/public/assets/foo`.
* `{CustomPath}/public/.well-known` and `{CustomPath}/public/robots.txt`
can be used in the future.
This PR is also a prerequisite for a clear solution for:
* #21942
* #25892
* discourse.gitea.io: [.well-known path serving custom files behind
proxy?](https://discourse.gitea.io/t/well-known-path-serving-custom-files-behind-proxy/5445/1)
This PR is breaking for users who have custom "public" files (CSS/JS).
After getting approvals, I will update the documents.

## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
If you have files in your "custom/public/" folder, please move them to
"custom/public/assets/".

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

The key `[database].CHARSET` was removed completely as every newer

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.

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`.
Close#23711, thanks to @ghnp5 !
Close #24612, thanks to @DanielGibson !
Major changes:
* the default value of nginx's client_max_body_size is too small, so put
a 512M here
* move `Resolving Error: 413 Request Entity Too Large` to a sub-section
of `Nginx` section
* make nginx use unescaped the URI and keep "%2F" as is when using
sub-path
* add details for General sub-path configuration
# ⚠️ 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?)
## Code coverage:

The `SHOW_FOOTER_BRANDING` came from year 2015, and it seems nobody ever
uses it. It only shows an GitHub icon which seems unrelated to Gitea, it
doesn't do what document says. So, remove it.
## ⚠️ Breaking
Users can now remove the key `[other].SHOW_FOOTER_BRANDING` from their
app.ini.
Follow #21962
After I eat my own dogfood, I would say that
ONLY_SHOW_RELEVANT_REPOS=false is necessary for many private/enterprise
instances, because many private repositories do not have
"description/topic", users just want to search by their names.
This PR also adds `PageIsExploreRepositories` check, to make code more
strict, because the `search` template is shared for different purpose.
And during the test, I found a bug that the "Search" button didn't
respect the "relevant" parameter, so this PR fixes the bug by the way
together.

### The CustomEvent prefix
There was already `ce-quick-submit`, the `ce-` prefix seems better than
`us-`. Rename the only `us-` prefixed `us-load-context-popup` to `ce-`
prefixed.
### Styles and Attributes in Go HTML Template
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/21855#issuecomment-1429643073
Suggest to stick to `class="c1 {{if $var}}c2{{end}}"`
The readability and maintainability should be applied to the code which
is read by developers, but not for the generated outputs.
The template code is the code for developers, while the generated HTML
are only for browsers.
The `class="c1 {{if $var}}c2{{end}}"` style is clearer for developers
and more intuitive, and the generated HTML also makes browsers happy (a
few spaces do not affect anything)
Think about a more complex case:
* `class="{{if $active}}active{{end}} menu item {{if $show}}show{{end}}
{{if $warn}}warn{{end}}"`
* --vs--
* `class="{{if $active}}active {{end}}menu item{{if $show}}
show{{end}}{{if $warn}} warn{{end}}"`
The first style make it clearer to see each CSS class name with its
`{{if}}` block.

Remove two unmaintained vendor packages `i18n` and `paginater`. Changes:
* Rewrite `i18n` package with a more clear fallback mechanism. Fix an unstable `Tr` behavior, add more tests.
* Refactor the legacy `Paginater` to `Paginator`, test cases are kept unchanged.
Trivial enhancement (no breaking for end users):
* Use the first locale in LANGS setting option as the default, add a log to prevent from surprising users.
Make router logger more friendly, show the related function name/file/line.
[BREAKING]
This PR substantially changes the logging format of the router logger. If you use this logging for monitoring e.g. fail2ban you will need to update this to match the new format.
* Refactor install page (db type)
* set correct default DB HOST for different DB TYPE
* remove legacy TiDB from documents
* unify the usage of DB TYPE, in code we only use "mysql". "MySQL" is only shown to users for friendly name.
* Gitea can use TiDB via MySQL protocol
