Paths prefixed with /tag/ are exclusively for when the tag name is the
next string in the path. Therefore, when a category is being used as
context, the path should start with /tags/ instead.
Using arrow functions changes `this` context, which is undesired in tests, e.g. it makes it impossible to setup things like pretender (`this.server`) in `beforeEach` hooks.
Ember guides always use classic functions in examples (e.g. https://guides.emberjs.com/release/testing/test-types/), and that's what it uses in its own test suite, as do various addons and ember apps.
It was also already used in Discourse where `this` was required. Moving forward, it will be needed in more places as we migrate toward ember-cli.
(I might later add a custom rule to eslint-discourse-ember to enforce this)
When the server gets overloaded and lots of requests start queuing server
will attempt to shed load by returning 429 errors on background requests.
The client can flag a request as background by setting the header:
`Discourse-Background` to `true`
Out-of-the-box we shed load when the queue time goes above 0.5 seconds.
The only request we shed at the moment is the request to load up a new post
when someone posts to a topic.
We can extend this as we go with a more general pattern on the client.
Previous to this change, rate limiting would "break" the post stream which
would make suggested topics vanish and users would have to scroll the page
to see more posts in the topic.
Server needs this protection for cases where tons of clients are navigated
to a topic and a new post is made. This can lead to a self inflicted denial
of service if enough clients are viewing the topic.
Due to the internal security design of Discourse it is hard for a large
number of clients to share a channel where we would pass the full post body
via the message bus.
It also renames (and deprecates) triggerNewPostInStream to triggerNewPostsInStream
This allows us to load a batch of new posts cleanly, so the controller can
keep track of a backlog

I also took the opportunity with this commit to move some test specific
stuff out of `discourse-loader` which is loaded on the front end of the
application. The test module building now happens in the `test_helper`
bundle.
We used many global functions to handle tests when they should be
imported like other libraries in our application. This also gets us
closer to the way Ember CLI prefers our tests to be laid out.
This is where they should be as far as ember is concerned. Note this is
a huge commit and we should be really careful everything continues to
work properly.
