Experimental "What's new?" feature feed items previously calculated
a boolean for experimentEnabled on the client based on the siteSettings
service, and this would control the initial state of the experiment
toggle.
However this requires the person who creates the site setting for the
experiment to remember to set it to `client: true`. This commit removes
that manual step by calculating whether the experiment is enabled
server-side, where we have access to all the site settings.
Sometimes changes to "What's new?" feed items are made or the feed items are
removed altogether, and the polling interval to check for new features is 1 day.
This is quite long, so this commit introduces a "Check for updates"
button for admins to click on the "What's new?" page which will bust
the cache for the feed and check again at the new features endpoint.
This is limited to 5 times per minute to avoid rapid sending of
requests.
Bug introduced in this PR https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/29244
When the experiment toggle button was introduced, new features did not look right when the toggle button was not available.
In addition, the plugin name can be an empty string. In that case, information about new features should be displayed.
Toggle the button to enable the experimental site setting from "What's new" announcement.
The toggle button is displayed when:
- site setting exists and is boolean;
- potentially required plugin is enabled.
Now forums can enroll their sites to be showcased in the Discourse [Discover](https://discourse.org/discover) directory. Once they enable the site setting `include_in_discourse_discover` to enroll their forum the `CallDiscourseHub` job will ping the `api.discourse.org/api/discover/enroll` endpoint. Then the Discourse Hub will fetch the basic details from the forum and add it to the review queue. If the site is approved then the forum details will be displayed in the `/discover` page.
The most common thing that we do with fab! is:
fab!(:thing) { Fabricate(:thing) }
This commit adds a shorthand for this which is just simply:
fab!(:thing)
i.e. If you omit the block, then, by default, you'll get a `Fabricate`d object using the fabricator of the same name.
A few specs in `dashboard_controller_spec.rb` set some state in redis but don't clean it up afterwards which causes other specs to fail when they're ran after `dashboard_controller_spec.rb`.

This commit adds a new notification that gets sent to admins when the site gets new features after an upgrade/deploy. Clicking on the notification takes the admin to the admin dashboard at `/admin` where they can see the new features under the "New Features" section.

It's very easy to forget to add `require 'rails_helper'` at the top of every core/plugin spec file, and omissions can cause some very confusing/sporadic errors.
By setting this flag in `.rspec`, we can remove the need for `require 'rails_helper'` entirely.
