Summary:
Ref T7303. Currently, our handling of "scope" is fairly rigid and adheres to the spec, but some of these behaviors don't make much sense in practice.
Soften some behaviors and make them more flexible:
**Soft Failure on Unknown Permissions**: If a client asks for a permission we don't know about, just warn that we don't recognize it instead of fataling. In particular, I plan to make `offline_access` and `whoami` implicit. Older clients that request these permissions will still work fine as long as we don't hard-fatal.
**Move `user.whoami` to ALWAYS scope**: Make `whoami` a default permission. We've already done this, in effect; this just formalizes it.
**Tokens no longer expire**: Make `offline_access` (infinite-duration tokens) a default permission. I think the OAuth model doesn't map well to reality. It is common for other providers to issue "temporary" tokens with a duration of multiple years, and the refesh workflow is sort of silly. We can add a "temporary" scope later if we need temporary tokens.
This flow was potentially extra silly with the "log out of Phacility" use case, where we might need to have you log in again before we could log you out, which is bizarre and senseless. Avoid this nonsense.
**Move away from granular permissions**: Users currently get to pick-and-choose which permissions they grant, but this likely rarely/never works in practice and is fairly hostile since applications can't communicate which permissions they need. Applications which can actually operate with only some subset of permissions can make separate requests (e.g., when you activate "cool feature X", it asks for X permission). I think applications that do this are rare; pretty much everything just asks for tons of permissions and everyone grants them.
Making this all-or-nothing is better for well-behaved applications and better for users. It's also slightly better for overzealous applications that ask for more than they need, but whatever. Users can make an informed decision, hopefully, and I plan to let administrators force applications to a subset of permissions once we introduce meaningful scopes.
Test Plan:
- Generated tokens.
- Used tokens.
- Authorized an instance.
- Faked some bogus scopes, got clean authorization.

Summary:
Fixes T6741. Ref T10246. Broadly, we want to protect Almanac cluster services:
- Today, against users in the Phacility cluster accidentally breaking their own instances.
- In the future, against attackers compromising administrative accounts and adding a new "cluster database" which points at hardware they control.
The way this works right now is really complicated: there's a global "can create cluster services" setting, and then separate per-service and per-device locks.
Instead, change "Can Create Cluster Services" into "Can Manage Cluster Services". Require this permission (in addition to normal permissions) to edit or create any cluster service.
This permission can be locked to "No One" via config (as we do in the Phacility cluster) so we only need this one simple setting.
There's also zero reason to individually lock //some// of the cluster services.
Also improve extended policy errors.
The UI here is still a little heavy-handed, but should be good enough for the moment.
Test Plan:
- Ran migrations.
- Verified that cluster services and bindings reported that they belonged to the cluster.
- Edited a cluster binding.
- Verified that the bound device was marked as a cluster device
- Moved a cluster binding, verified the old device was unmarked as a cluster device.
- Tried to edit a cluster device as an unprivileged user, got a sensible error.

Summary:
Ref T10246. Ref T6741.
When you have a namespace like "phacility.net", require users creating services and devices within it to have edit permission on the namespace.
This primarily allows us to lock down future device names in the cluster, so instances can't break themselves once they get access to Almanac.
Test Plan:
- Configured a `phacility.net` namespace, locked myself out of it.
- Could not create new `stuff.phacility.net` services/devices.
- Could still edit existing devices I had permission for.
- Configured a `free.phacility.net` namespace with more liberal policies.
- Could create `me.free.phacility.net`.
- Still could not create `other.phacility.net`.

Ref T6741. Ref T10246.
Root problem: to provide Drydock in the cluster, we need to expose Almanac, and doing so would let users accidentally or intentionally create a bunch of `repo006.phacility.net` devices/services which could conflict with the real ones we manage.
There's currently no way to say "you can't create anything named `*.blah.net`". This adds "namespaces", which let you do that (well, not yet, but they will after the next diff).
After the next diff, if you try to create `repo003.phacility.net`, but the namespace `phacility.net` already exists and you don't have permission to edit it, you'll be asked to choose a different name.
Also various modernizations and some new docs.
Test Plan:
- Created cool namespaces like `this.computer`.
- Almanac namespaces don't actually enforce policies yet.

Ref T4245. We pass this exclusively for use by additional third-party hooks.
This is technically a backward compatibility break, but I suspect it doesn't affect anyone:
- Probably almost no one is using this (there are few reasons to, even for the tiny number of installs with custom commit hooks).
- If they are, there's a good chance the PHID will work anyway, since nearly all scripts and Conduit methods will accept it in place of a callsign now, and if it's in logging or debugging code the PHID is a reasonable substitute
- Even if it doesn't just keep working, the break should be very obvious in most reasonable cases.
I'll call this out explicitly in the changelog, though -- almost everything else will just continue working, but this is a strict compatibility break.
Test Plan:
- Ugh.
- Picked a hosted Git repo out of Diffusion.
- Went to the path on disk.
- Went into `hooks/`.
- Went into `pre-receive-phabricator.d/`.
- Wrote this hook and gave it `chmod +x`:
```name=stuff.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo $PHABRICATOR_REPOSITORY >> /tmp/stuff.log
```
- Pushed to the repository.
- Saw a PHID show up in the log:

Originally, Conduit worked like web logins: you'd call `conduit.connect` and then get a session back. This approach still works, but new clients don't use it and it will probably stop working eventually after T5955 is further along.
There was no real reason for things to work like this and no other API in the world does, I think it was just slightly easier to implement back in 2011.
