Summary:
Ref T4339. Ref T4310. Currently, sessions look like `"afad85d675fda87a4fadd54"`, and are only issued for logged-in users. To support logged-out CSRF and (eventually) external user sessions, I made two small changes:
- First, sessions now have a "kind", which is indicated by a prefix, like `"A/ab987asdcas7dca"`. This mostly allows us to issue session queries more efficiently: we don't have to issue a query at all for anonymous sessions, and can join the correct table for user and external sessions and save a query. Generally, this gives us more debugging information and more opportunity to recover from issues in a user-friendly way, as with the "invalid session" error in this diff.
- Secondly, if you load a page and don't have a session, we give you an anonymous session. This is just a secret with no special significance.
This does not implement CSRF yet, but gives us a client secret we can use to implement it.
Test Plan:
- Logged in.
- Logged out.
- Browsed around.
- Logged in again.
- Went through link/register.

Summary:
Ref T4310. Fixes T3720. This change:
- Removes concurrent session limits. Instead, unused sessions are GC'd after a while.
- Collapses all existing "web-1", "web-2", etc., sessions into "web" sessions.
- Dramatically simplifies the code for establishing a session (like omg).
Test Plan: Ran migration, checked Sessions panel and database for sanity. Used existing session. Logged out, logged in. Ran Conduit commands.

Summary:
Ref T3720. Ref T4310. Currently, we limit the maximum number of concurrent sessions of each type. This is primarily because sessions predate garbage collection and we had no way to prevent the session table from growing fairly quickly and without bound unless we did this.
Now that we have GC (and it's modular!) we can just expire unused sessions after a while and throw them away:
- Add a `sessionExpires` column to the table, with a key.
- Add a GC for old sessions.
- When we establish a session, set `sessionExpires` to the current time plus the session TTL.
- When a user uses a session and has used up more than 20% of the time on it, extend the session.
In addition to this, we could also rotate sessions, but I think that provides very little value. If we do want to implement it, we should hold it until after T3720 / T4310.
Test Plan:
- Ran schema changes.
- Looked at database.
- Tested GC:
- Started GC.
- Set expires on one row to the past.
- Restarted GC.
- Verified GC nuked the session.
- Logged in.
- Logged out.
- Ran Conduit method.
- Tested refresh:
- Set threshold to 0.0001% instead of 20%.
- Loaded page.
- Saw a session extension ever few page loads.

Summary: Ref T4310. Ref T3720. We use bare strings to refer to session types in several places right now; use constants instead.
Test Plan: grep; logged out; logged in; ran Conduit commands.

Summary: Ref T4310. Ref T3720. Session operations are currently part of PhabricatorUser. This is more tightly coupled than needbe, and makes it difficult to establish login sessions for non-users. Move all the session management code to a `SessionEngine`.
Test Plan:
- Viewed sessions.
- Regenerated Conduit certificate.
- Verified Conduit sessions were destroyed.
- Logged out.
- Logged in.
- Ran conduit commands.
- Viewed sessions again.
