Only 5 assignments can exist simultaneously for a topic or its post.
The code that counted the assignments did not ignore the inactive
assignments which made the limit check more strict than it should have
been.
There were two problems with the way current automation script for automatic
assignment works:
- it tried to assign users that were not allowed to be assigned because they
were not part of groups that are allowed to use discourse-assign - fixed by
skipping users that are not a part of assign_allowed_on_groups groups
- it assigned new users - fixed by adding a new user that can skip new users
This commit adds a tab for assignments in the experimental user menu. The assignments tab behaves very similarly to the bookmarks and messages tab in core: it displays the user's unread assign notifications first and then fills the rest of available space in the menu with assignments (same content that the current user menu displays).
More details of the experimental user menu can be found in https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/17379.
This change makes it possible to associate an assign notification with the `assignments` record that creates the notification. It'll be needed for the assignments tab in the new experimental user menu, see https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/17379.
Adds a new plugin setting that when enabled adds a status field for every assignment. This setting defaults to off.
The possible status for an assignment are customizable via yet another new setting, and the first one on this list will be the default status for new assignments.
The status is not yet show anywhere except the assign modal and the small action posts in topics at the moment. Adding status to the assignment list for users and groups will be handled in the near future.

We are already checking that assignee has access to the private message. However, admin still can be assigned as technically they have access.
We should ensure that assignee has direct access to the message.
While assigning a random user in group to the topic posts, if we didn't include the users who were assigned to indivitual posts then the same users will be assigned again and again.
It's a minor copyedit to remove group mention from the post raw. Else it sends a notification to all group members when no one is found to be assigned.
Adds support for polymorphic bookmarks in the serializer extensions
and preloaders for bookmarks.
Specs are skipped for now for the serializer but they do
work without the use_polymorphic_bookmark guard in the plugin.rb
If `SiteSetting.unassign_on_close` is enabled, an Assignment record can still exist, but be set to inactive, when a Topic is closed.
Inactivement Assignments should be ignored when comparing to the maximum number of assigned topics.
After a topic is closed, the assignment is not deleted but becomes
inactive. When this happened, it was not removed from the assignments
count or list.
There is an active flag for assignments. It is used to bring assignments back when topic is reopened.
However, when assignment is inactive, it should not be displayed on assigned list or search.
When topic is closed, we mark assignments as "inactive". Then when it is reopen and setting reassign_on_open is enabled, we bring back previous assignments.
We were already using custom fields for archive message and move to inbox. I changed custom fields solution to use active flag on Assignment model
When post is already assigned to user/group then don't allow assigning a topic to that user/group.
Similarly, right now when topic is already assigned we are not allowing to assign a post that that user.
When an assigned post is moved to the new topic, it becomes topic assignment.
When an assigned post is moved to an existing topic it stays post assignment
Change `topic_id` to polymorphic approach (In the next step we will allow assigning to individual post)
`topic_id` column is still used for efficient display of assigned users on topic list (to avoid scanning posts)
On the group assignment page, we should be able to display
- all topics assigned to that group + to user belonging to that group
- all topics assigned directly to group
- all topics assigned to individual user
Ability to assign groups.
To assign group, user must have a right to send a message to that group.
In addition, 2 jobs were introduced, - AssignNotification and UnassignNotification to inform interested users in the background about the new assignment.
