This PR introduces the following changes:
- New Vue stores: `collaborationStore` and `pushConnectionStore`
- Front-end push connection handling overhaul: Keep only a singe
connection open and handle it from the new store
- Add user avatars in the editor header when there are multiple users
working on the same workflow
- Sending a heartbeat event to back-end service periodically to confirm
user is still active
- Back-end overhauls (authored by @tomi):
- Implementing a cleanup procedure that removes inactive users
- Refactoring collaboration service current implementation

Validate first and last names before saving them to database. This
should prevent security issue with un-sanitized data that ends up in
emails.

### 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.
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`

Groundwork to be able to safely refactor and move the invitation logic
to the UserService.

- 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

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
```
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 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.
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 is related to an issue with how Bull handles stalled jobs, see
https://github.com/OptimalBits/bull/issues/1415 for reference.
CPU intensive workflows can in certain cases take a long while to finish
up, thereby blocking the thread and causing Bull queue to think the job
has stalled, even though it finished successfully. In these cases the
error handling could then overwrite the successful execution data with
the error message.
