### Manual workflow activation and deactivation
In a multi-main scenario, if the user manually activates or deactivates
a workflow, the process (whether leader or follower) that handles the
PATCH request and updates its internal state should send a message into
the command channel, so that all other main processes update their
internal state accordingly:
- Add to `ActiveWorkflows` if activating
- Remove from `ActiveWorkflows` if deactivating
- Remove and re-add to `ActiveWorkflows` if the update did not change
activation status.
After updating their internal state, if activating or deactivating, the
recipient main processes should push a message to all connected
frontends so that these can update their stores and so reflect the value
in the UI.
### Workflow activation errors
On failure to activate a workflow, the main instance should record the
error in Redis - main instances should always pull activation errors
from Redis in a multi-main scenario.
### Leadership change
On leadership change...
- The old leader should stop pruning and the new leader should start
pruning.
- The old leader should remove trigger- and poller-based workflows and
the new leader should add them.
1. Reduce a lot of code duplication
2. Move more endpoints out of `Server.ts`
3. Move all query-param parsing and validation into a middleware to make
the route handlers simpler.
This PR:
- Creates `InvitationController`
- Moves `POST /users` to `POST /invitations` and move related test to
`invitations.api.tests`
- Moves `POST /users/:id` to `POST /invitations/:id/accept` and move
related test to `invitations.api.tests`
- Adjusts FE to use new endpoints
- Moves all the invitation logic to the `UserService`

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.

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.
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 change ensures that things like `encryptionKey` and `instanceId`
are always available directly where they are needed, instead of passing
them around throughout the code.
This PR adds a message for queue mode which triggers an external secrets
provider reload inside the workers if the configuration has changed on
the main instance.
It also refactors some of the message handler code to remove cyclic
dependencies, as well as remove unnecessary duplicate redis clients
inside services (thanks to no more cyclic deps)
all commands sent between main instance and workers need to contain a
server id to prevent senders from reacting to their own messages,
causing loops
this PR makes sure all sent messages contain a sender id by default as
part of constructing a sending redis client.

This PR implements the updated license SDK so that worker and webhook
instances do not auto-renew licenses any more.
Instead, they receive a `reloadLicense` command via the Redis client
that will fetch the updated license after it was saved on the main
instance
This also contains some refactoring with moving redis sub and pub
clients into the event bus directly, to prevent cyclic dependency
issues.
This PR adds new endpoints to the REST API:
`/orchestration/worker/status` and `/orchestration/worker/id`
Currently these just trigger the return of status / ids from the workers
via the redis back channel, this still needs to be handled and passed
through to the frontend.
It also adds the eventbus to each worker, and triggers a reload of those
eventbus instances when the configuration changes on the main instances.
In scope:
- Consolidate `WorkflowService.getMany()`.
- Support non-entity field `ownedBy` for `select`.
- Support `tags` for `filter`.
- Move `addOwnerId` to `OwnershipService`.
- Remove unneeded check for `filter.id`.
- Simplify DTO validation for `filter` and `select`.
- Expand tests for `GET /workflows`.
Workflow list query DTOs:
```
filter → name, active, tags
select → id, name, active, tags, createdAt, updatedAt, versionId, ownedBy
```
Out of scope:
- Migrate `shared_workflow.roleId` and `shared_credential.roleId` to
string IDs.
- Refactor `WorkflowHelpers.getSharedWorkflowIds()`.
* fix handle empty keys in cache service
* add test
* add cache mock test
* add simpler mocking, and add tests for all the updated methods
* don't use RedisStore specifically in the mock
