We're rolling out new rules around the node assert library, the first of which is enforcing the use of assert/strict. This means we don't need to use the strict version of methods, as the standard version will work that way by default.
This caught some gotchas in our existing usage of assert where the lack of strict mode had unexpected results:
- Url matching needs to be done on `url.href` see aa58b354a4
- Null and undefined are not the same thing, there were a few cases of this being confused
- Particularly questionable changes in [PostExporter tests](c1a468744b) tracked [here](https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/3505).
- A typo see eaac9c293a
Moving forward, using assert strict should help us to catch unexpected behaviour, particularly around nulls and undefineds during implementation.
As discussed with the product team we want to enforce kebab-case file names for
all files, with the exception of files which export a single class, in which
case they should be PascalCase and reflect the class which they export.
This will help find classes faster, and should push better naming for them too.
Some files and packages have been excluded from this linting, specifically when
a library or framework depends on the naming of a file for the functionality
e.g. Ember, knex-migrator, adapter-manager

When a member doen't have a name, and the first_name replacement doesn't have a fallback, we did show %recipient.first_name% instead of an empty string.

When sending an email for multiple batches at the same time, we now
reuse the same email body for each batch in the same segment. This
reduces the amount of database queries and makes the sending more
reliable in case of database failures.
The cache is short lived. After sending the email it is automatically
garbage collected.

We have seen examples of sites with member emails that have invalid characters that can cause an entire email send to fail, or just cause a failure to those addresses. The issue that allowed members with invalid email address to be saved was patched earlier, but its possible there are still sites that contain some of those invalid email addresses.
This change updates new sending service to filter out the recipients with invalid email address before passing them to mail provider, so these rogue addresses don't affect the whole batch in anyway. We also trim the recipient emails to clear out any spaces first, which is the most likely culprit.
- uses new email validator that detects invalid email addresses with special chars
