Some authentication plugins use the users defined in the `users`
object but ignore the `password` and `hash` properties.
This change deletes all of the filtering logic, including the logic
that filters out users that have both `password` and `hash` properties
defined. I could have kept that check, but decided to remove it
because:
* There's no harm in defining both `hash` and `password`.
* Allowing both makes it easier to transition from one scheme to
another.
* It's fewer lines of code to maintain.
If `settings.json` contains a user without a `password` property then
nobody should be able to log in as that user using the built-in HTTP
basic authentication. This is true both with and without this change,
but before this change it wasn't immediately obvious that a malicious
user couldn't use an empty or null password to log in as such a user.
This commit adds an explicit nullish check and some unit tests to
ensure that an empty or null password will not work if the `password`
property is null or undefined.
This makes it possible to disable `contentEditable` for certain
elements in some circumstances (e.g., on links so that users can click
on them normally).
if animationState evaluates to -1 or 0, it would end up in a conditional that assign its value to itself. Since this is redundant, it is better to remove this conditional, to avoid an extra check
Rewrite the `callAll` and `aCallAll` functions to support all
reasonable hook behaviors and to report errors for unreasonable
behaviors (e.g., calling the callback twice).
Now a hook function like the following works as expected when invoked
by `aCallAll`:
```
exports.myHookFn = (hookName, context, cb) => {
cb('some value');
return;
};
```
If a hook function neither calls the callback nor returns a
(non-undefined) value then there's no way for the hook system to know
if/when the hook function has finished.
* Use jQuery to build the message HTML so that special characters in
the error message, URL, etc. are properly escaped. This helps
avoid XSS vulnerabilities.
* Use bold text for the error message to make it stand out.
* Add a line break between the error message and "in <url> at line
<line>" so that the error message stands out more.
* Use `<p>...</p>` instead of `</br>` to separate the parts of the
popup.
* Use CSS for spacing instead of `</br>`.
* Grammar fixes (add a missing comma, "at" instead of "in").
Teach Gritter to accept anything that jQuery's `.append()` method
accepts for the title and text of a popup message. This makes it
easier to safely build HTML messages with proper escaping of special
characters (to prevent XSS vulnerabilities).
The debug statement mostly printed the following useless message over
and over, causing Travis CI logs to become truncated:

This will be a breaking change for some people.
We removed all internal password control logic. If this affects you, you have two options:
1. Use a plugin for authentication and use session based pad access (recommended).
1. Use a plugin for password setting.
The reasoning for removing this feature is to reduce the overall security footprint of Etherpad. It is unnecessary and cumbersome to keep this feature and with the thousands of available authentication methods available in the world our focus should be on supporting those and allowing more granual access based on their implementations (instead of half assed baking our own).
