The "invites" worker exists to do two things -- make a Confirmation
object, and send the outgoing email. Making the Confirmation object
in a background process from where the PreregistrationUser is created
temporarily leaves the PreregistrationUser in invalid state, and
results in 500's, and the user not immediately seeing the sent
invitation. That the "invites" worker also wants to create the
Confirmation object means that "resending" an invite invalidates the
URL in the previous email, which can be confusing to the user.
Moving the Confirmation creation to the same transaction solves both
of these issues, and leaves the "invites" worker with nothing to do
but send the email; as such, we remove it entirely, and use the
existing "email_senders" worker to send the invites. The volume of
invites is small enough that this will not affect other uses of that
worker.

The way the flow goes now is this:
1. The user initiaties login via "Billing" in the gear menu.
2. That takes them to `/self-hosted-billing/` (possibly with a
`next_page` param if we use that for some gear menu options).
3. The server queries the bouncer to give the user a link with a signed
access token.
4. The user is redirected to that link (on `selfhosting.zulipchat.com`).
Now we have two cases, either the user is logging in for the first time
and already did in the past.
If this is the first time, we have:
5. The user is asked to fill in their email in a form that's shown,
pre-filled with the value provided inside the signed access token.
They POST this to the next endpoint.
6. The next endpoint sends a confirmation email to that address and asks
the user to go check their email.
7. The user clicks the link in their email is taken to the
from_confirmation endpoint.
8. Their initial RemoteBillingUser is created, a new signed link like in
(3) is generated and they're transparently taken back to (4),
where now that they have a RemoteBillingUser, they're handled
just like a user who already logged in before:
If the user already logged in before, they go straight here:
9. "Confirm login" page - they're shown their information (email and
full_name), can update
their full name in the form if they want. They also accept ToS here
if necessary. They POST this form back to
the endpoint and finally have a logged in session.
10. They're redirected to billing (or `next_page`) now that they have
access.
For the last form (with Full Name and ToS consent field), this pretty
shamelessly re-uses and directly renders the
corporate/remote_realm_billing_finalize_login_confirmation.html
template. That's probably good in terms of re-use, but calls for a
clean-up commit that will generalize the name of this template and the
classes/ids in the HTML.
The Django convention is for __repr__ to include the type and __str__
to omit it. In fact its default __repr__ implementation for models
automatically adds a type prefix to __str__, which has resulted in the
type being duplicated:
>>> UserProfile.objects.first()
<UserProfile: <UserProfile: emailgateway@zulip.com <Realm: zulipinternal 1>>>

This will help us track if users actually clicked on the
email confirmation link while creating a new organization.
Replaced all the `reder` calls in `accounts_register` with
`TemplateResponse` to comply with `add_google_analytics`
decorator.
Black 23 enforces some slightly more specific rules about empty line
counts and redundant parenthesis removal, but the result is still
compatible with Black 22.
(This does not actually upgrade our Python environment to Black 23
yet.)

This allows us to revoke MultiUseInvites by changing their .status
instead of deleting them (which has been deleting the helpful tracking
information on PreregistrationUsers about which MultiUseInvite they came
from).
Previously, we type the model fields with explicit type annotations
manually with the approximate types. This was because the lack of types
for Django.
django-stubs provides more specific types for all these fields that
incompatible with our previous approximate annotations. So now we can
remove the inline type annotations and rely on the types defined in the
stubs. This allows mypy to infer the types of the model fields for us.

We have officially eliminated Realm from ConfirmationObjT and replaced
it with RealmReactivationStatus.

We added RealmReactivationStatus as a possible confirmation object
in #22584. We also need to add this type to ConfirmationObjT.

The .status value of EmailChangeStatus was not being looked
at anywhere to prevent re-use of email change confirmation links. This
is not a security issue, since the EmailChangeStatus object has a fixed
value for the new_email, while the confirmation link has expiry time of
1 day, which prevents any reasonable malicious scenarios.
We fix this by making get_object_from_key look at
confirmation.content_object.status - which applies
generally to all confirmations where the attached object has the .status
attribute. This is desired, because we never want to
successfully get_object_from_key an object that has already been used or
reused.
This makes the prereg_user.status check in check_prereg_key redundant so
it can be deleted.
This commit changes the invite API to accept invitation
expiration time in minutes since we are going to add a
custom option in further commits which would allow a user
to set expiration time in minutes, hours and weeks as well.
The database value for expiry_date is None for the invite
that will never expire and the clients send -1 as value
in the API similar to the message retention setting.
Also, when passing invite_expire_in_days as an argument
in various functions, invite_expire_in_days is passed as
-1 for "Never expires" option since invite_expire_in_days
is an optional argument in some functions and thus we cannot
pass "None" value.
A confirmation link takes a user to the check_prereg_key_and_redirect
endpoint, before getting redirected to POST to /accounts/register/. The
problem was that validation was happening in the check_prereg_key_and_redirect
part and not in /accounts/register/ - meaning that one could submit an
expired confirmation key and be able to register.
We fix this by moving validation into /accouts/register/.
With the previous steps, all Confirmation objects should have been
migrated and the expiry_date field is being used for checking
confirmation validity - so all that's left is to set the NOT NULL
constraint on the column.
The commit:
1. Adds the new field as nullable.
2. Adds code that'll create new Confirmation with the field set
correctly.
3. For verifying validity of Confirmation object this still uses the old
logic in get_object_from_key() to keep things functioning until we
backfill the old objects in the next step.
Thus this commit is deployable. Next we'll have a commit to run a
backfill migration.
There are three functional side effects:
• Correct an insignificant but mathematically offensive bias toward
repeated characters in generate_api_key introduced in commit
47b4283c4b4c70ecde4d3c8de871c90ee2506d87; its entropy is increased
from 190.52864 bits to 190.53428 bits.
• Use the base32 alphabet in confirmation.models.generate_key; its
entropy is reduced from 124.07820 bits to the documented 120 bits, but
now it uses 1 syscall instead of 24.
• Use the base32 alphabet in get_bigbluebutton_url; its entropy is
reduced from 51.69925 bits to 50 bits, but now it uses 1 syscall
instead of 10.
(The base32 alphabet is A-Z 2-7. We could probably replace all of
these with plain secrets.token_urlsafe, since I expect most callers
can handle the full urlsafe_b64 alphabet A-Z a-z 0-9 - _ without
problems.)
