Currently, moving messages between streams is an action limited to
organization administrators. A big part of the motivation for that
restriction was to prevent users from moving messages from a private
stream without shared history as a way to access messages they should
not have access to.
Organization administrators can already just make the stream have
shared history if they want to access its messages, but allowing
non-administrators to move messages between would have
introduced a security bug without this change.
The codepath for moving a topic changes the message.recipient_id to the
id of the new recipient, but later, in update_messages_for_topic_edit,
it uses message.recipient when querying for messages with the matching
topic in the *old* stream (because those are the other messages that
need to be moved). This is a bug which happens to work fine, because in
Django 2, if message.recipient gets fetched first and then
message.recipient_id is mutated, message.recipient will not be altered
and thus will retain the outdated, previously fetched value.
In Django 3 changing .recipient_id causes .recipient to be updated to
the new Recipient objects, which is the Recipient of the *new* stream.
That will cause the bug to manifest.
This is a bugfix preparing for the upgrade to Django 3.
Instead of just storing the edit history in the message which
triggered the topic edit, we store the edit history in all
the messages that changed. This helps users track the edit history
of a message more reliably.
When doing query for same topic names in a stream, we should do a
case-insensitive exact match for the topic, since that's the data
model for topics in Zulip.

Regenerated by tabbott with `lint --fix` after a rebase and change in
parameters.
Note from tabbott: In a few cases, this converts technical debt in the
form of unsorted imports into different technical debt in the form of
our largest files having very long, ugly import sequences at the
start. I expect this change will increase pressure for us to split
those files, which isn't a bad thing.

Previously, we had a restriction that we could only
edit and move the topics of 7 days old messages.
This buggy behaviour is now removed as in this
commit.
Fixes#14492.
Part of #13912.
This commit reuses the existing infrastructure for moving a topic
within a stream to add support for moving topics from one stream to
another.
Split from the original full-feature commit so that we can merge just
the backend, which is finished, at this time.
This is a large part of #6427.
The feature is incomplete, in that we don't have real-time update of
the frontend to handle the event, documentation, etc., but this commit
is a good mergable checkpoint that we can do further work on top of.
We also still ideally would have a test_events test for the backend,
but I'm willing to leave that for follow-up work.
This appears to have switched to tabbott as the author during commit
squashing sometime ago, but this commit is certainly:

This is preparation for supporting moving messages between streams in
some cases.
It doesn't actually have any functional effect, since flush_message
clears the message unconditionally anyway.
This limit was introduced in c588c79 as a part of the
feature and not due to performance crisis. So we are
increasing this limit to 7 days. Since topics tends to
naturally fizzle after day or two so 7 days limit
would be good enough.
Fixes#1727.
With the server down, apply migrations 0245 and 0246. 0246 will remove
the pub_date column, so it's essential that the previous migrations
ran correctly to copy data before running this.
This seems like kind of a silly function to extract
to topic.py, but it will theoretically help us sweep
"subject" if we change the DB.
It had test coverage.
We (lexically) remove "subject" from the conversion code. The
`build_message` helper calls `set_topic_name` under the hood,
so things still have "subject" in the JSON.
There was good code coverage on `build_message`.
This is somewhat hairy logic, so it's nice
to extract it and not worry about variable leaks.
Also, this moves some legacy "subject" references out
of actions.py.
