ref https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/KTLO-1/members-spam-signups
- Some customers are seeing many spammy signups ("hundreds a day") — our
hypothesis is that bots and/or email link checkers are able to signup by
simply following the link in the email without even loading the page in
a browser.
- Currently new members signup by clicking a magic link in an email,
which is a simple GET request. When the user (or a bot) clicks that link, Ghost
creates the member and signs them in for the first time.
- This change, behind an alpha flag, requires a new member to click the
link in the email, which takes them to a new frontend route `/confirm_signup/`, then submit a form on the page which sends a POST request to the
server. If JavaScript is enabled, the form will be submitted
automatically so the only change to the user is an extra flash/redirect
before being signed in and redirected to the homepage.
- This change is behind the alpha flag `membersSpamPrevention` so we can
test it out on a few customer's sites and see if it helps reduce the
spam signups. With the flag off, the signup flow remains the same as
before.

We appreciate your contribution!
Explanation: There are some missing accents in:
4c598a1e6d/ghost/i18n/locales/es/comments.json (L18-L19)
And
4c598a1e6d/ghost/i18n/locales/es/comments.json (L37)
Specifically in: Conviertete, Se. So instead of including accents I just
used simpler words so it sounds as a more natural translation, I have
already translated my whole newsletter https://crecimientoconsciente.co/
to Spanish I'm just finishing some wording details.
Also if you could please give a check to this

This PR adds Japanese translation to the comment resources
(ghost/i18n/locales/ja/comments.json). Currently, all of them are empty
and Japanese translations are not supplied.
The PR also adds Japanese translations to a few missing phrases in the
portal language resources (ghost/i18n/locales/ja/portal.json).

ref https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/ENG-790/remove-use-of-sub-queries-in-email-analytics
- the `delivered_at` column is typically entirely/nearly entirely filled with values meaning the `IS NOT NULL` query matches a huge number of rows that MySQL has to fetch from the index to count
- using `IS NULL` switches that behaviour around as it will now match very few rows which has been shown in testing to be considerably quicker
- after switching to `IS NULL` the query returns an "undelivered" count rather than a "delivered" count, in order to keep the rest of the system behaviour the same we can calculate the delivered count by subtracting the query result from the total number of emails sent which we can fetch using a very fast primary key lookup query on the `emails` table
closes https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/ENG-790/remove-use-of-sub-queries-in-email-analytics
Avoiding sub queries means we don't have a process tied up for longer than necessary and we can more easily see if one of the queries is non-performant.
- extracted the count queries into separate queries and used the retrieved values in the final update query
- removed a query by moving the email open rate calculation into JS as we've already fetched the necessary data before that point

refs https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/CSV_Injection
- it's possible for certain fields in a member CSV export to be executed
by software that opens the CSVs
- we can protect against this for the user by escaping any forumulae in
the CSV fields
- papaparse provides this option natively, so it's just a case of
providing the field to the unparse method
- credits to Harvey Spec (phulelouch) for reporting
no issue
- Keeping state of the scroll location to keep in sync with iframe
buffering caused performance issues in Safari.
- This adds a debounce to when the scroll location is updated which
fixes jerky scrolling in Safari.
closes https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/IPC-117/fix-ghost-orb-logo-not-being-animated-in-chrome-or-arc
- Chrome wasn't respecting the `muted` attribute when the dashboard is loaded without any interaction resulting in the video not auto playing
- fixed by adding a `{{autoplay}}` modifier that explicitly sets the `muted` property on the video before calling `.play()` which appears to bypass the interaction-required block
ref https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/ENG-801/unable-to-recommend-sites-with-long-excerpts
- recommending a site with a long excerpt was being blocked by a
validation error
- with this change, we truncate the excerpt to 2000 characters max. and
avoid showing an error in the UI
- with this change, the description length validation is also now
stricter; 200 characters max, instead of 2000, to match the UI
part of https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/IPC-92/add-logic-for-completing-steps
part of https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/IPC-115/make-skip-onboarding-button-work
- updated `onboarding` service to use the `user.accessibility` (poor naming, this is an old field used for general user settings) as it's backing store
- added `onboarding.allStepsCompleted` to allow for "completion" state to be shown before the checklist is marked as completed
- added `onboarding.{complete,dismiss}Checklist()` actions and wired those up to the template
When testing, if you need to reset the checklist you can run this in DevTools console
```
Ember.Namespace.NAMESPACES_BY_ID['ghost-admin'].__container__.lookup('service:onboarding').startChecklist()
```
