Eeshan Garg d312432ea8 docs: Update links to zulip-announce mailing list.
The links we have now redirect to "My groups" and not to our
Google group. Also, the RSS feed is no longer supported by Google,
so we should no longer link to it.

Fixes #19560.

Tim Abbott a87bbe22be docs: Document how to test the polling email gateway configuration.
We don't recommend this configuration, so it's rarely used, but it's

Mateusz Mandera 16321327f9 docs: Improve documentation on syncing UserProfile bool flags via ldap.
It's better to explicitly list the possibilities. Also, the
recommendation regarding is_active should be changed to a strict
"Don't", as Subscription.is_user_active is a denormalized field and
flipping a user's is_active will cause inconsistent state by leaving
Subscriptions unupdated. Given that similar things can be introduced in
the future for any other flag not officially supported by having a
setter, the recommendation should "Don't" in general.

Tim Abbott 67fdbbe5fd docs: Inline some upgrade instructions.
It feels like the "Same as" content was unnecessarily requiring the
user to bounce around in these cases.

(I've left the "Same as" text for the Ubuntu ones, where it's two
steps in a row to follow).

Mateusz Mandera 8ad7520180 ldap: Support alternative attrs to userAccountControl.
Fixes #17456.

The main tricky part has to do with what values the attribute should
have. LDAP defines a Boolean as
Boolean = "TRUE" / "FALSE"
so ideally we'd always see exactly those values. However,
although the issue is now marked as resolved, the discussion in
https://pagure.io/freeipa/issue/1259 shows how this may not always be
respected - meaning it makes sense for us to be more liberal in
interpreting these values.

Gaurav Pandey 502697d239 docs: Add documentation for bullseye support.
The support for bullseye was added in #17951

files, hence wasn't documented.

Since now bullseye is released as a stable
version, it's support can be documented.

Alex Vandiver faf71eea41 upgrade-postgresql: Do not remove other supervisor configs.
We previously used `zulip-puppet-apply` with a custom config file,
with an updated PostgreSQL version but more limited set of
`puppet_classes`, to pre-create the basic settings for the new cluster
before running `pg_upgradecluster`.

Unfortunately, the supervisor config uses `purge => true` to remove
all SUPERVISOR configuration files that are not included in the puppet
configuration; this leads to it removing all other supervisor
processes during the upgrade, only to add them back and start them
during the second `zulip-puppet-apply`.

It also leads to `process-fts-updates` not being started after the
upgrade completes; this is the one supervisor config file which was
not removed and re-added, and thus the one that is not re-started due
to having been re-added.  This was not detected in CI because CI added
a `start-server` command which was not in the upgrade documentation.

Set a custom facter fact that prevents the `purge` behaviour of the
supervisor configuration.  We want to preserve that behaviour in
general, and using `zulip-puppet-apply` continues to be the best way
to pre-set-up the PostgreSQL configuration -- but we wish to avoid
that behaviour when we know we are applying a subset of the puppet
classes.

Since supervisor configs are no longer removed and re-added, this
requires an explicit start-server step in the instructions after the
upgrades complete.  This brings the documentation into alignment with
what CI is testing.

Mateusz Mandera fdbde59b07 rate_limit: Add management command to reset auth rate limit.
The auth attempt rate limit is quite low (on purpose), so this can be a
common scenario where a user asks their admin to reset the limit instead
of waiting. We should provide a tool for administrators to handle such
requests without fiddling around with code in manage.py shell.

Alex Vandiver e94b6afb00 nagios: Remove broken check_email_deliverer_* checks and related code.
These checks suffer from a couple notable problems:
 - They are only enabled on staging hosts -- where they should never
   be run.  Since ef6d0ec5ca, these supervisor processes are only
   run on one host, and never on the staging host.
 - They run as the `nagios` user, which does not have appropriate
   permissions, and thus the checks always fail.  Specifically,
   `nagios` does not have permissions to run `supervisorctl`, since
   the socket is owned by the `zulip` user, and mode 0700; and the
   `nagios` user does not have permission to access Zulip secrets to
   run `./manage.py print_email_delivery_backlog`.

Rather than rewrite these checks to run on a cron as zulip, and check
those file contents as the nagios user, drop these checks -- they can
be rewritten at a later point, or replaced with Prometheus alerting,
and currently serve only to cause always-failing Nagios checks, which
normalizes alert failures.

Leave the files installed if they currently exist, rather than
cluttering puppet with `ensure => absent`; they do no harm if they are
left installed.

Mateusz Mandera c54b48452d saml: Support syncing custom profile fields with SAML attributes.
Fixes #17277.

The main limitation of this implementation is that the sync happens if
the user authing already exists. This means that a new user going
through the sign up flow will not have their custom fields synced upon
finishing it. The fields will get synced on their consecutive log in via
SAML in the future. This can be addressed in the future by moving the
syncing code further down the codepaths to login_or_register_remote_user
and plumbing the data through to the user creation process.

We detail that limitation in the documentation.
