Instead of copying over a mostly-unchanged `postgresql.conf`, we
transition to deploying a `conf.d/zulip.conf` which contains the
only material changes we made to the file, which were previously
appended to the end.
While shipping separate while `postgresql.conf` files for each
supported version is useful if there is large variety in supported
options between versions, there is not no such variation at current,
and the burden of overriding the entire default configuration is that
it must be keep up to date wit the package's version.
pg_upgradecluster will start the cluster if the old cluster was
started before it ran, or if there are post-upgrade scripts to run.
Because neither of those are fully under our control, only attempt to
start the new cluster if it isn't already.
Previously, we had an architecture where CSS inlining for emails was
done at provision time in inline_email_css.py. This was necessary
because the library we were using for this, Premailer, was extremely
slow, and doing the inlining for every outgoing email would have been
prohibitively expensive.
Now that we've migrated to a more modern library that inlines the
small amount of CSS we have into emails nearly instantly, we are able
to remove the complex architecture built to work around Premailer
being slow and just do the CSS inlining as the final step in sending
each individual email.
This has several significant benefits:
* Removes a fiddly provisioning step that made the edit/refresh cycle
for modifying email templates confusing; there's no longer a CSS
inlining step that, if you forget to do it, results in your testing a
stale variant of the email templates.
* Fixes internationalization problems related to translators working
with pre-CSS-inlined emails, and then Django trying to apply the
translators to the post-CSS-inlined version.
* Makes the send_custom_email pipeline simpler and easier to improve.

Primary goal of library replacement is improving execution speed.
This commit should not affect the functionality of the system
or make any changes to it.
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.)

The `pg_upgrade` tool uses `pg_dump` as an internal step, and verifies
that the version of `pg_upgrade` is the same exactly the same as the
version of the PostgreSQL server it is upgrading to. A mismatch (even
in packaging versions) leads to it aborting:
```
/usr/lib/postgresql/14/bin/pg_upgrade -b /usr/lib/postgresql/13/bin -B /usr/lib/postgresql/14/bin -p 5432 -P 5435 -d /etc/postgresql/13/main -D /etc/postgresql/14/main --link

Explicitly upgrade `postgresql-client` at the same time we upgrade
`postgresql` itself, so their versions match.

During installation on a new host, `create-database` attempts to
verify that there isn't a bunch of data already in the database which
is it about to drop and recreate. In the most common case, this
statement emits a scary-looking warning, since the database does not
exist yet:
```
+ /home/zulip/deployments/current/scripts/setup/create-database
+ POSTGRES_USER=postgres
++ crudini --get /etc/zulip/zulip.conf postgresql database_name
++ echo zulip
+ DATABASE_NAME=zulip
++ crudini --get /etc/zulip/zulip.conf postgresql database_user
++ echo zulip
+ DATABASE_USER=zulip
++ cd /
++ su postgres -c 'psql -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -Atc '\''SELECT COUNT(*) FROM zulip.zerver_message;'\'' zulip'
psql: error: connection to server on socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed: FATAL: database "zulip" does not exist
```
Because we are attempting to gracefully handle the case where the
database does not exist yet, we also continue (and drop the database)
in other, less expected cases -- for instance, if database contains a
schema we do not expect.
Explicitly check for the database existence first, and once we verify
that, allow any further failures in the `SELECT COUNT(*)` to abort
`create-database`. This serves the dual purpose of hiding the "FATAL"
error for the common case when the database does not exist, as well as
preventing dropping the database if anything else goes awry.
If a previous attempt at an upgrade failed for some reason, the new
PostgreSQL may be installed, and the conversion will succeed, but the
new PostgreSQL daemon will not be running (Puppet does not force it to
start). This causes the upgrade to fail when analyzing statistics,
since the daemon isn't running.
Explicitly start the new PostgreSQL; this does nothing in most cases,
but will provider better resiliency when recovering from previous
partial upgrades.
Some terminals (e.g. ssh from OS X) set an invalid locale, which
causes the `pg_upgradecluster` call late in the upgrade to fail.
Force a known locale, for consistency. This mirrors the settings in
upgrade-zulip-stage-2, set in 11ab545f3b, and its subsequent
cleanups in 64c608a51a, ee0f4ca330, and eda9ce2364.
This implements get_mandatory_secret that ensures SHARED_SECRET is
set when we hit zerver.decorator.authenticate_notify. To avoid getting
ZulipSettingsError when setting up the secrets, we set an environment
variable DISABLE_MANDATORY_SECRET_CHECK to skip the check and default
its value to an empty string.

As a consequence:
• Bump minimum supported Python version to 3.8.
• Move Vagrant environment to Ubuntu 20.04, which has Python 3.8.
• Move CI frontend tests to Ubuntu 20.04.
• Move production build test to Ubuntu 20.04.
• Move 3.4 upgrade test to Ubuntu 20.04.

stop-server and restart-server address all services which talk to the
database, and are thus more correct than restarting or stopping
everything in supervisor.
This is possible now that the previous commit ensures that the zulip
user can read the zulip installation directory during
`create-database`; previously, that directory was still owned by root
when `create-database` was run, whereas now it is in
`~zulip/deployments/`.
rabbitmqctl ping only checks that the Erlang process is registered

The RabbitMQ docs state ([1]):
RabbitMQ nodes and CLI tools (e.g. rabbitmqctl) use a cookie to
determine whether they are allowed to communicate with each
other. [...] The cookie is just a string of alphanumeric
characters up to 255 characters in size. It is usually stored in a
local file.
...and goes on to state (emphasis ours):
If the file does not exist, Erlang VM will try to create one with
a randomly generated value when the RabbitMQ server starts
up. Using such generated cookie files are **appropriate in
development environments only.**
The auto-generated cookie does not use cryptographic sources of
randomness, and generates 20 characters of `[A-Z]`. Because of a
semi-predictable seed, the entropy of this password is thus less than
the idealized 26^20 = 94 bits of entropy; in actuality, it is 36 bits
of entropy, or potentially as low as 20 if the performance of the
server is known.
These sizes are well within the scope of remote brute-force attacks.
On provision, install, and upgrade, replace the default insecure
20-character Erlang cookie with a cryptographically secure
255-character string (the max length allowed).

This reverts commit 889547ff5e. It is
unused in the Docker container, as the configurtaion of the `zulip`
user in the rabbitmq node is done via environment variables. The
Zulip host in that context does not have `rabbitmqctl` installed, and
would have needed to know the Erlang cookie to be able to run these
commands.
