13d0f24423 feat: Replace SSE with WebSocket for UI notifications (#36965)
* Closes #36942
* Fixes #19265 

Replaces the SSE-based push channel (`/user/events`) with a WebSocket
endpoint (`/-/ws`).

### What changes

- **New `/-/ws` endpoint** (authenticated). One WebSocket per origin,
shared across tabs via a single `SharedWorker`.
- **Pubsub broker** (`services/pubsub`) for fan-out by topic, behind a
`Broker` interface. `MemoryBroker` is the default (single process); a
Redis backend is available for multi-process setups, configured via
`[websocket].PUBSUB_TYPE` / `PUBSUB_CONN_STR`. The internal Gitea queue
was not usable here because it has FIFO/single-consumer semantics.
- **Push-only event production.** Events are emitted by write-triggered
notifiers — `NotificationCountChange`, `PublishStopwatchesForUser`, and
the logout publisher — wired into the existing `notify.Notifier`
interface. No server-side pollers.
- **Typed pub/sub on the client.** `web_src/js/modules/worker.ts` is a
singleton transport; features subscribe per event type via
`onUserEvent('notification-count', cb)` instead of branching on
`event.data.type`.
- **Wire contract** (`UserEventType` union) is shared between the worker
and consumers via `web_src/js/types.ts`, kept in sync with
`services/websocket/events.go`.
- **Client-side periodic polling fallback** kicks in only when the
WebSocket cannot be established (e.g. proxy blocks WS, browser lacks
module-SharedWorker support).

### What's removed

- `modules/eventsource` (SSE manager, run loop, messenger).
- `/user/events` route and `tests/integration/eventsource_test.go`.
- All server-side polling for stopwatches and notification counts.

### Stopwatch multi-tab fix

The navbar stopwatch icon was previously rendered conditionally on `{{if
$activeStopwatch}}`, so tabs loaded before the timer started had no DOM
element to update. The icon and popup are now always rendered (toggled
with `tw-hidden`), and the start/stop/cancel handlers POST silently so
all open tabs reflect the change in real time.

### Deployment note

WebSocket needs the upgrade headers to pass through a reverse proxy,
e.g. for nginx:

```nginx
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
```

Without them the WebSocket cannot be established, and after 3
consecutive failed opens the shared worker signals `push-unavailable`:
the notification count and stopwatch fall back to periodic polling on
the existing `[ui.notification]` timeouts. Real-time push is lost, the
features keep working. The reverse-proxy docs need the same note (see
the `docs-update-needed` label).

1e42317b66 feat(setting): add shared [redis] section as default for redis-backed subsystems (#38550)
Adds a shared `[redis]` config section with a single `CONN_STR` key that
acts as the default Redis connection for every redis-backed subsystem
whose own connection string is empty: `[cache].HOST`,
`[session].PROVIDER_CONFIG`, `[queue].CONN_STR` and
`[global_lock].SERVICE_CONN_STR`.

Precedence: per-subsystem value > shared `[redis].CONN_STR` > existing
built-in defaults. Fully backward compatible: when `[redis]` is not set,
every code path behaves exactly as before.

Motivation: today an admin with one Redis instance has to repeat the
same connection string in up to four places (five once WebSocket lands).
Requested by @wxiaoguang in [this review
discussion](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/36965#discussion_r3613306976)
as a prerequisite for #36965. This follows the pattern used by GitLab
and Mastodon: one global Redis definition, per-subsystem overrides fall
back to it.

Since #12385 all identical connection strings already share one client
via `nosql.Manager`, so pointing all subsystems at `[redis].CONN_STR`
naturally converges onto a single shared connection pool.

Covered by table-driven unit tests per subsystem (fallback applies, own
value wins, absent `[redis]` = unchanged behavior). A config-cheat-sheet
update for gitea/docs will follow once this is merged.
