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.
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.
We used to show New Features in a tab on the dashboard,
but this could get pushed down the page especially on
our hosting. In 043117ca13
we made a separate What's New page, so this commit removes
the dashboard tab and changes the admin notification to
send the admin to /admin/whats-new instead of the dashboard
tab.
This PR introduces a basic AdminNotice model to store these notices. Admin notices are categorized by their source/type (currently only notices from problem check.) They also have a priority.
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.

* DEV: Add a dedicated Admin::StaffController base controller
The current parent(Admin:AdminController) for all admin-related controllers
uses a filter that allows only staff(admin, moderator) users.
This refactor makes Admin::AdminController filter for only admins as the name suggests and
introduces a base controller dedicated for staff-related endpoints.
* DEV: Set staff-only controllers parent to Admin::StaffController
Refactor staff-only controllers to inherit newly introduced
Admin::StaffController abstract controller. This conveys the
purpose of the parent controller better unlike the previously used parent
controller.
* Dashboard doesn't timeout anymore when Amazon S3 is used for backups
* Storage stats are now a proper report with the same caching rules
* Changing the backup_location, s3_backup_bucket or creating and deleting backups removes the report from the cache
* It shows the number of backups and the backup location
* It shows the used space for the correct backup location instead of always showing used space on local storage
* It shows the date of the last backup as relative date
