Mixing different Gitea contexts together causes some problems:
1. Unable to respond proper content when error occurs, eg: Web should
respond HTML while API should respond JSON
2. Unclear dependency, eg: it's unclear when Context is used in
APIContext, which fields should be initialized, which methods are
necessary.
To make things clear, this PR introduces a Base context, it only
provides basic Req/Resp/Data features.
This PR mainly moves code. There are still many legacy problems and
TODOs in code, leave unrelated changes to future PRs.
1. Remove unused fields/methods in web context.
2. Make callers call target function directly instead of the light
wrapper like "IsUserRepoReaderSpecific"
3. The "issue template" code shouldn't be put in the "modules/context"
package, so move them to the service package.

This adds a API for getting License templates. This tries to be as close
to the [GitHub
API](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/licenses?apiVersion=2022-11-28) as
possible, but Gitea does not support all features that GitHub has. I
think they should been added, but this out f the scope of this PR. You
should merge #23006 before this PR for security reasons.
The old code is unnecessarily complex, and has many misuses.
Old code "wraps" a lot, wrap wrap wrap, it's difficult to understand
which kind of handler is used.
The new code uses a general approach, we do not need to write all kinds
of handlers into the "wrapper", do not need to wrap them again and
again.
New code, there are only 2 concepts:
1. HandlerProvider: `func (h any) (handlerProvider func (next)
http.Handler)`, it can be used as middleware
2. Use HandlerProvider to get the final HandlerFunc, and use it for
`r.Get()`
And we can decouple the route package from context package (see the
TODO).
# FAQ
## Is `reflect` safe?
Yes, all handlers are checked during startup, see the `preCheckHandler`
comment. If any handler is wrong, developers could know it in the first
time.
## Does `reflect` affect performance?
No. https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/24080#discussion_r1164825901
1. This reflect code only runs for each web handler call, handler is far
more slower: 10ms-50ms
2. The reflect is pretty fast (comparing to other code): 0.000265ms
3. XORM has more reflect operations already

Remove `[repository.editor] PREVIEWABLE_FILE_MODES` setting that seemed
like it was intended to support this but did not work. Instead, whenever
viewing a file shows a preview, also have a Preview tab in the file
editor.
Add new `/markup` web and API endpoints with `comment`, `gfm`,
`markdown` and new `file` mode that uses a file path to determine the
renderer.
Remove `/markdown` web endpoint but keep the API for backwards and
GitHub compatibility.
## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
The `[repository.editor] PREVIEWABLE_FILE_MODES` setting was removed.
This setting served no practical purpose and was not working correctly.
Instead a preview tab is always shown in the file editor when supported.

this is a simple endpoint that adds the ability to rename users to the
admin API.
Note: this is not in a mergeable state. It would be better if this was
handled by a PATCH/POST to the /api/v1/admin/users/{username} endpoint
and the username is modified.

This PR implements the mapping of user groups provided by OIDC providers
to orgs teams in Gitea. The main part is a refactoring of the existing
LDAP code to make it usable from different providers.
Refactorings:
- Moved the router auth code from module to service because of import
cycles
- Changed some model methods to take a `Context` parameter
- Moved the mapping code from LDAP to a common location
I've tested it with Keycloak but other providers should work too. The
JSON mapping format is the same as for LDAP.

This PR adds the support for scopes of access tokens, mimicking the
design of GitHub OAuth scopes.
The changes of the core logic are in `models/auth` that `AccessToken`
struct will have a `Scope` field. The normalized (no duplication of
scope), comma-separated scope string will be stored in `access_token`
table in the database.
In `services/auth`, the scope will be stored in context, which will be
used by `reqToken` middleware in API calls. Only OAuth2 tokens will have
granular token scopes, while others like BasicAuth will default to scope
`all`.
A large amount of work happens in `routers/api/v1/api.go` and the
corresponding `tests/integration` tests, that is adding necessary scopes
to each of the API calls as they fit.
- [x] Add `Scope` field to `AccessToken`
- [x] Add access control to all API endpoints
- [x] Update frontend & backend for when creating tokens
- [x] Add a database migration for `scope` column (enable 'all' access
to past tokens)
I'm aiming to complete it before Gitea 1.19 release.
Fixes #4300
The API endpoints for "git" can panic if they are called on an empty
repo. We can simply allow empty repos for these endpoints without worry
as they should just work.

Since we changed the /api/v1/ routes to disallow session authentication
we also removed their reliance on CSRF. However, we left the
ReverseProxy authentication here - but this means that POSTs to the API
are no longer protected by CSRF.
Now, ReverseProxy authentication is a kind of session authentication,
and is therefore inconsistent with the removal of session from the API.
This PR proposes that we simply remove the ReverseProxy authentication
from the API and therefore users of the API must explicitly use tokens
or basic authentication.

The recovery, API, Web and package frameworks all create their own HTML
Renderers. This increases the memory requirements of Gitea
unnecessarily with duplicate templates being kept in memory.
Further the reloading framework in dev mode for these involves locking
and recompiling all of the templates on each load. This will potentially
hide concurrency issues and it is inefficient.
This PR stores the templates renderer in the context and stores this
context in the NormalRoutes, it then creates a fsnotify.Watcher
framework to watch files.
The watching framework is then extended to the mailer templates which
were previously not being reloaded in dev.
Then the locales are simplified to a similar structure.

Copied from what I wrote on #19133 discussion: Handling username case is a very tricky issue and I've already encountered a Mastodon <-> Gitea federation bug due to Gitea considering Ta180m and ta180m to be the same user while Mastodon thinks they are two different users. I think the best way forward is for Gitea to only use the original case version of the username for federation so other AP software don't get confused.
* Move httpsig algs constant slice to modules/setting/federation.go
* Add new federation settings to app.example.ini and config-cheat-sheet
* Return if marshalling error
* Make sure Person IRIs are generated correctly
This commit ensures that if the setting.AppURL is something like "http://127.0.0.1:42567" (like in the integration tests), a trailing slash will be added after that URL.
* If httpsig verification fails, fix Host header and try again
This fixes a very rare bug when Gitea and another AP server (confirmed to happen with Mastodon) are running on the same machine, Gitea fails to verify incoming HTTP signatures. This is because the other AP server creates the sig with the public Gitea domain as the Host. However, when Gitea receives the request, the Host header is instead localhost, so the signature verification fails. Manually changing the host header to the correct value and trying the veification again fixes the bug.
* Revert "If httpsig verification fails, fix Host header and try again"
This reverts commit f53e46c721.
The bug was actually caused by nginx messing up the Host header when reverse-proxying since I didn't have the line `proxy_set_header Host $host;` in my nginx config for Gitea.

Targeting #14936, #15332
Adds a collaborator permissions API endpoint according to GitHub API: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/collaborators/collaborators#get-repository-permissions-for-a-user to retrieve a collaborators permissions for a specific repository.
### Checks the repository permissions of a collaborator.
`GET` `/repos/{owner}/{repo}/collaborators/{collaborator}/permission`
Possible `permission` values are `admin`, `write`, `read`, `owner`, `none`.
```json
{
"permission": "admin",
"role_name": "admin",
"user": {}
}
```
Where `permission` and `role_name` hold the same `permission` value and `user` is filled with the user API object. Only admins are allowed to use this API endpoint.
Adds a feature [like GitHub has](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request-from-a-fork) (step 7).
If you create a new PR from a forked repo, you can select (and change later, but only if you are the PR creator/poster) the "Allow edits from maintainers" option.
Then users with write access to the base branch get more permissions on this branch:
* use the update pull request button
* push directly from the command line (`git push`)
* edit/delete/upload files via web UI
* use related API endpoints
You can't merge PRs to this branch with this enabled, you'll need "full" code write permissions.
This feature has a pretty big impact on the permission system. I might forgot changing some things or didn't find security vulnerabilities. In this case, please leave a review or comment on this PR.
Closes #17728
