Decouple the sending of client restart events from the restarting of
the servers. Restarts use the new Tornado restart-clients endpoint to
inject "restart" events into queues of clients which were loaded from
the previous Tornado process. The rate is controlled by the
`application_server.client_restart_rate`, in clients per minute, or a
flag to `restart-clients` which overrides it. Note that a web client
will also spread its restart over 5 minutes, so artificially-slow
client restarts are generally not very necessary.
Restarts of clients are deferred to until after post-deploy hooks are
run, such that the pre- and post- deploy hooks are around the actual
server restarts, even if pushing restart events to clients takes
significant time.
This flag was generally used not because we wanted to avoid
restarting Tornado, but because we wanted to avoid increasing load
the server when all of the clients were told to reload.
Since we have laid the groundwork for separately telling Tornado to
tell clients to restart, we remove the --skip-tornado flag; the next
commit will add the ability to skip client restarts.
Installs which are upgrading to current `main`, and are upgrading for
the very first time from an install which was originally from git,
have a `/home/zulip/deployments/current` which, unlike all later
upgrades, is not a `git worktree` of `/srv/zulip.git`, but rather a
direct `git clone` of some arbitrary URL. As such, it does not have
an `upstream` remote, nor a cached `zulip-git-version` file.
This makes later attempts to determine the pre-upgrade revision of
git (for pre-deploy hooks) fail, as without a `zulip-git-version`
file, `ZULIP_VERSION` is insufficiently-specific (e.g. `6.1+git`), and
there is no guarantee the necessary tags exist either.
While we can make fresh git installs set up an `upstream` and run
`./tools/cache-zulip-git-version` going forward (see subsequent
commit), that does not address the issue for deploys which already
exist. For those, we must configure and fetch a `remote` in the old
checkout, followed by re-generating a cached `zulip-git-version`.
Fixes: #25076.
Ever since we started bundling the app with webpack, there’s been less
and less overlap between our ‘static’ directory (files belonging to
the frontend app) and Django’s interpretation of the ‘static’
directory (files served directly to the web).
Split the app out to its own ‘web’ directory outside of ‘static’, and
remove all the custom collectstatic --ignore rules. This makes it
much clearer what’s actually being served to the web, and what’s being
bundled by webpack. It also shrinks the release tarball by 3%.

If there is a syntax error in `settings.py`, `restart-server` should
provide a reasonable message about this. It did so prior to
af08bcdb3f, becausde any invocation `./manage.py` without
`--skip-checks` will verify `settings.py`, among several other checks.
After af08bcdb3f, there are no `./manage.py` calls in most restarts,
which fa77be6e6c took further.
Add an explicit `./manage.py check` in the default case.
upgrade-zulip-stage-2 overrides this by passing `--skip-checks`, for
performance. This also means that `upgrade-zulip-from-git` itself
picks up the same `--skip-checks` flag, since it inherits the same
flag parsing, though that is perhaps of dubious utility.
One should now be able to configure a regex by appending _regex to the
port number:
[tornado_sharding]
9802_regex = ^[l-p].*\.zulipchat\.com$

This is a script to search nginx log files by server hostname or
client IP address, and output matching lines, all while skipping
common and less-interesting request lines.
We had skipped these in #14693 so we could keep generating a friendly
error on Python 3.5, but we gave that up in #19801.

These changes are all independent of each other; I just didn’t feel
like making dozens of commits for them.
