ed6a8dca76 Inlined package requires to save boot time and memory
no issue

- following on from f4fb0fcbaa,
  this commit moves around some package requires in Ghost
- these are often niche packages that do something in a subsystem of
  Ghost, and are not necessarily be needed to boot the application
- these packages use non-negligible CPU and memory when they are
  required, so it makes sense to lazy-require them
- the concern here is that we obscure the code too much by moving
  random requires further into code, but the changes are small and the
  improvements big
- this commit bring the boot time since 4.19.0 down ~31% and initial
  memory usage down by a total of ~12%

Moved settings/cache to shared/settings-cache
- This is part of the quest to separate the frontend and server & get rid of all the places where there are cross-requires
- At the moment the settings cache is one big shared cache used by the frontend and server liberally
- This change doesn't really solve the fundamental problems, as we still depend on events, and requires from inside frontend
- However it allows us to control the misuse slightly better by getting rid of restricted requires and turning on that eslint ruleset

53d14fd8e3 Added Router etc to shared/express + use everywhere
- Added a wrapper around express.Router to our shared/express util
- Also export static and _express
- Use this shared util everywhre, meaning express is only used directly in this one file
- ATM this file is mostly an experiment / debug helper, it might be removed again later
- The aim is to have a minimal framework wrapping express that allows us to:
     - reduce our usage of express() in favour of Router()
     - unify some of our duplicated logic
     - fix some structural issues e.g. Sentry
     - make it easier to understand the codebase

d246a4761e Implemented externally verifiable identity tokens
no-issue

This adds two new endpoints, one at /ghost/.well-known/jwks.json for exposing
a public key, and one on the canary api /identities, which allows the
Owner user to fetch a JWT.

This token can then be used by external services to verify the domain

* Added ghost_{public,private}_key settings

    This key can be used for generating tokens for communicating with
    external services on behalf of Ghost

* Added .well-known directory to /ghost/.well-known

    We add a jwks.json file to the .well-known directory which exposes a
    public JWK which can be used to verify the signatures of JWT's created
    by Ghost

    This is added to the /ghost/ path so that it can live on the admin
    domain, rather than the frontend. This is because most of its
    uses/functions will be in relation to the admin domain.

* Improved settings model tests

    This removes hardcoded positions in favour of testing that a particular
    event wasn't emitted which is less brittle and more precise about what's
    being tested

* Fixed parent app unit tests for well-known

    This updates the parent app unit tests to check that the well-known
    route is mounted. We all change proxyquire to use `noCallThru` which
    ensures that the ubderlying modules are not required. This stops the
    initialisation logic in ./well-known erroring in tests

* Moved jwt signature to a separate 'token' propery

    This structure corresponds to other resources and allows to exptend with
    additional properties in future if needed
