[StoreRemoteMedia] Upgrade plugin to use the new Media system
API Changes:
- Added getters to File to better formalize the ideas of the commit "[Media] Fix issues with database file storage"
UI Changes:
- Now presented thumbnails are actual thumbnails (bug fix)
- Attachment actions have a slightly more extended behaviour
Many other minor bug fixes...
Fixed file quota as well.
There can be more than one file for the same filehash IF the url are different.
Possible states:
- A file with no url and with filename is a local file.
- A file with an url but no filename is a remote file that wasn't fetched,
not even the thumbnail.
- A file with an url and filename is a fetched remote file (maybe just a
thumbnail of it).
- A file with no filename nor url is a redirect.
Routes:
Given these states, updated routes so that an attachment can only be
retrieved by id and a file by filehash.
Major API changes:
File::getByHash now returns a yield of files
Major UI changes:
- Now remote non stored files are presented.
- /view became preferred
- Redirects to remote originals are preferred.

Instead of relying on the MariaDB's ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP trigger update
"modified" attributes in Managed_DataObject. Every raw query that needs
adjusting is adjusted, as they won't update "modified" automatically anymore.
The main goal behind this change is to fix "modified" updates on PostgreSQL.
Avoid the use of deprecated MariaDB "zero dates" globally. If they're present
as attribute defaults somewhere, they will be replaced with NULL implicitly.
The existing "zero dates" in MariaDB storage will be left intact and this
should not present any issues.
The "timestamp" type in table definitions now corresponds to DATETIME in
MariaDB with "DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP", which
should be close enough to the original behaviour for compatibility purposes.
It is now the recommended type for "modified" attributes, because of the
update trigger on MariaDB. But there is no such trigger implemented on
PostgreSQL as of this moment.
The code used to operate under the assumption that MariaDB doesn't support
quoting identifiers. Not only is that not exactly true, but MariaDB has
reserved keywords that cannot be used as table or column names unquoted.
The file downloader was changed from a simple redirect to the file to one
implemented in PHP, which should make it safer, by making it possible disallow
direct access to the file, to prevent executing of atttachments
The filename has a new format:
bin2hex("{$original_name}")."-{$filehash}"
This format should be respected. Notice the dash, which is important to distinguish it from the previous
format, which was "{$hash}.{$ext}"
This change was made to both make the experience more user friendly, by
providing a readable name for files, as opposed to it's hash. This name is taken
from the upload filename, but, clearly, as this wasn't done before, it's
impossible to have a proper name for older files, so those are displayed as
"untitled.{$ext}".
This new name is displayed in the UI, instead of the previous name.
Default supported files need to use consistent names. Bumped version to 1.20.0
ImageFile has been changed to extend MediaFile and rely on it to partially
validate files. This validation has been extended to not rely solely on
Fileinfo, as it is disabled on some places. Now it'll try to use the shell
command `file`, if Fileinfo isn't available.
ImageFile now converts every new upload to PNG, except JPEG and GIF, which
are kept, but still resized (to the same size), to remove possible scripts
embedded therein.
MediaFile::fromUpload will return an ImageFile if the uploaded file is an image
or a MediaFile otherwise.
MediaFile can be constructed with an id with value -1 to denote a temporary
object, which is not added to the DB. This is useful to create a temporary
object for representing images, so it can be used to rescale them.
The supported attachment array needs to be populated with the result of calling
`image_type_to_extension` for the appropriate image type, in the case of images.
This is important so all parts of the code see the same extension for each image
type (jpg vs jpeg).
Added documentation to classes/File.php and to lib/MediaFile and lib/ImageFile
Many newspapers seem to use animated GIFs as catchy header images, which
we would fail to show from oEmbed/OpenGraph fetching since they would
want us to "use File as Thumbnail", but the only place the image filename
was stored was in File_thumbnail, for the thumbnail of that file_id which
had a URL set.
We don't guess the current profile anymore if the value of the profile === -1
Also sets $this->scoped for all ScopingNoticeStream inheritors, which just
like in an Action can be null if we're not scoped in any way (logged in).
Foolproof file redirection
This solves an issue when our internal /attachment/{file_id} links are shortened with an remote shorteners (which caused the /attachment/{file_id} links to be saved to the File table and a thumbnail of a thumbnail being generated)
