mostly issues around uninitialized variables, calling non-static
functions in a static context, calling Session functions directly
instead of on its singleton, passing non-variables by reference, and
subclasses not using the same interface as the parent class.
Convert the Admin_User controller
Convert the login and password change controller
Change the item model to call user::lookup to get the owner.
On the log model, delete the relationship between the log and user table, and replace with a
call to user::lookup
(cherry picked from commit 194cc3b27a)
Create the get_user_list, lookup_by_name, lookup_by_hash and get_group_list api functions
* Remove the user_event callbacks and move them to the gallery_event callbacks. This will insure that the active user is always loaded (because the gallery callbacks are always called first) to its available to other gallery_ready handlers. Moved the method set_request_locale to the locales helper as it is more related to locales.
* Move the user controllers and views into the gallery module.
* Move the theme and block processing out of the user module and into core.

user_add_form_admin admin adding a user
user_edit_form_admin admin editing a user
user_add_form_admin_completed successfully added a user (admin)
user_edit_form user editing their own settings
user_edit_form_completed successfully edited a user (admin and user editing own settings)
and verifying user permissions, but there are several above-the-bar
changes:
1) Server add is now only available to admins. This is a hard
requirement because we have to limit server access (eg:
server_add::children) to a user subset and the current permission
model doesn't include that. Easiest fix is to restrict to admins.
Got rid of the server_add permission.
2) We now know check permissions at every level, which means in
controllers AND in helpers. This "belt and suspenders" approach will
give us defense in depth in case we overlook it in one area.
3) We now do CSRF checking in every controller method that changes the
code, in addition to the Forge auto-check. Again, defense in depth
and it makes scanning the code for security much simpler.
4) Moved Simple_Uploader_Controller::convert_filename_to_title to
item:convert_filename_to_title
5) Fixed a bug in sending notification emails.
6) Fixed the Organize code to verify that you only have access to your
own tasks. In general, added permission checks to organize which had
pretty much no validation code.
I did my best to verify every feature that I touched.
1) Allow admins to edit the admin bit of other admins
2) Don't allow admins to delete themselves (partial fix for ticket #213)
3) Inline user::update(). Don't do form processing in helper methods!
4) Inline user::_get_edit_form() so that we can treat edit forms differently.
Trying to hard to make common functions makes for weird edge cases.
