This change expands on the command channel communication introduced
lately between the main instance(s) and the workers. The frontend gets a
new menu entry "Workers" which will, when opened, trigger a regular call
to getStatus from the workers. The workers then respond via their
response channel to the backend, which then pushes the status to the
frontend.
This introduces the use of ChartJS for metrics.
This feature is still in MVP state and thus disabled by default for the
moment.
- Enable two-way communication with web sockets
- Enable sending push messages to specific users
- Add collaboration service for managing active users for workflow
Missing things:
- State is currently kept only in memory, making this not work in
multi-master setups
- Removing a user from active users in situations where they go inactive
or we miss the "workflow closed" message
- I think a timer based solution for this would cover most edge cases.
I.e. have FE ping every X minutes, BE removes the user unless they have
received a ping in Y minutes, where Y > X
- FE changes to be added later by @MiloradFilipovic

Story: https://linear.app/n8n/issue/PAY-926
This PR coordinates workflow activation on instance startup and on
leadership change in multiple main scenario in the internal API. Part 3
on manual workflow activation and deactivation will be a separate PR.
### Part 1: Instance startup
In multi-main scenario, on starting an instance...
- [x] If the instance is the leader, it should add webhooks, triggers
and pollers.
- [x] If the instance is the follower, it should not add webhooks,
triggers or pollers.
- [x] Unit tests.
### Part 2: Leadership change
In multi-main scenario, if the main instance leader dies…
- [x] The new main instance leader must activate all trigger- and
poller-based workflows, excluding webhook-based workflows.
- [x] The old main instance leader must deactivate all trigger- and
poller-based workflows, excluding webhook-based workflows.
- [x] Unit tests.
To test, start two instances and check behavior on startup and
leadership change:
```
EXECUTIONS_MODE=queue N8N_LEADER_SELECTION_ENABLED=true N8N_LICENSE_TENANT_ID=... N8N_LICENSE_ACTIVATION_KEY=... N8N_LOG_LEVEL=debug npm run start
EXECUTIONS_MODE=queue N8N_LEADER_SELECTION_ENABLED=true N8N_LICENSE_TENANT_ID=... N8N_LICENSE_ACTIVATION_KEY=... N8N_LOG_LEVEL=debug N8N_PORT=5679 npm run start
```
This PR ensures `MultiMainInstancePublisher` is initialized before
checking if the instance is leader or follower. Followers skip license
init, license check, and pruning start and stop.

To help debugging possible issues in startup and migrations, log the
executed migrations with log level 'info', instead of 'debug'.

Due to a change, during the credentials import command, the core's
Credential object is being called through its prototype. This caused the
Credential's cipher variable to not be set, thus no cipher service being
available during import. This fix catches this edge case and provides a
fix.
https://linear.app/n8n/issue/PAY-933/set-up-leader-selection-for-multiple-main-instances
- [x] Set up new envs
- [x] Add config and license checks
- [x] Implement `MultiMainInstancePublisher`
- [x] Expand `RedisServicePubSubPublisher` to support
`MultiMainInstancePublisher`
- [x] Init `MultiMainInstancePublisher` on startup and destroy on
shutdown
- [x] Add to sandbox plans
- [x] Test manually
Note: This is only for setup - coordinating in reaction to leadership
changes will come in later PRs.

This PR allows users to configure the settings to Bull, possibly
reducing the errors with `maxStalledCount` and other issues, that
usually happen either when a worker crashes or when the event loop is
super busy. Increasing the lease time and the `maxStalledCount` settings
might improve UX.

This PR converts the hard-deletion interval to a timeout:
- to prevent the interval from not being restored when hard deletion
throws, and
- to prevent a long-running hard deletion from leading to duplicate
deletions.
Since we do not store which executions produced binary data, for pruning
on S3 we need to query for binary data items for each execution in order
to delete them. To minimize requests to S3, allow the user to skip
pruning requests when setting TTL at bucket level.
