- when changing the response to a `204` for requests with no cookie we'd lost the `Cache-Control: public, max-age: 0` header which meant some cache systems weren't caching as efficiently as possible

Comments-UI loads `/ghost/admin-frame/` in an iframe to check if a Staff User is authenticated in order to show moderation options. That iframe request loads a HTML page which in turn contains a script that fires off an API request that attempts to fetch the logged-in user details, resulting in a 403 "error" showing up when not authenticated. In the vast majority of cases there will be no staff user authenticated so lots of extra requests and "errors" are seen unnecessarily.
- adjusted the `/ghost/auth-frame/` endpoint to check if the request contains an Admin session cookie
- if it does, continue as before with rendering the HTML page so the script is loaded
- if it doesn't, return an empty 204 response avoiding the script request and subsequent 403-generating API request
- eliminates the 403 error being generated for all typical visitor traffic, the error should only be seen when an Admin was previously logged in but their cookie is no longer valid (either from logging out, or going past the 6month validity period)
no issue
There are a couple of issues with resetting the Ghost instance between
E2E test files:
These issues came to the surface because of new tests written in
https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/pull/16117
**1. configUtils.restore does not work correctly**
`config.reset()` is a callback based method. On top of that, it doesn't
really work reliably (https://github.com/indexzero/nconf/issues/93)
What kinda happens, is that you first call `config.reset` but
immediately after you correcty reset the config using the `config.set`
calls afterwards. But since `config.reset` is async, that reset will
happen after all those sets, and the end result is that it isn't reset
correctly.
This mainly caused issues in the new updated images tests, which were
updating the config `imageOptimization.contentImageSizes`, which is a
deeply nested config value. Maybe some references to objects are reused
in nconf that cause this issue?
Wrapping `config.reset()` in a promise does fix the issue.
**2. Adapters cache not reset between tests**
At the start of each test, we set `paths:contentPath` to a nice new
temporary directory. But if a previous test already requests a
localStorage adapter, that adapter would have been created and in the
constructor `paths:contentPath` would have been passed. That same
instance will be reused in the next test run. So it won't read the new
config again. To fix this, we need to reset the adapter instances
between E2E tests.
How was this visible? Test uploads were stored in the actual git
repository, and not in a temporary directory. When writing the new image
upload tests, this also resulted in unreliable test runs because some
image names were already taken (from previous test runs).
**3. Old 2E2 test Ghost server not stopped**
Sometimes we still need access to the frontend test server using
`getAgentsWithFrontend`. But that does start a new Ghost server which is
actually listening for HTTP traffic. This could result in a fatal error
in tests because the port is already in use. The issue is that old E2E
tests also start a HTTP server, but they don't stop the server. When you
used the old `startGhost` util, it would check if a server was already
running and stop it first. The new `getAgentsWithFrontend` now also has
the same functionality to fix that issue.

- The admin assets are served with a unique hash depending on the build with a year-long "max-age" value in the response cache-control header. The client browsers still do send 'If-None-Match' requests when there is a hard-refresh on the client side. There's no need for 'If-None-Match' requests though!
- With 'immutable' value in the cache-control header, the browser caches are treating responses as "hard-fresh" without sending redundant requests.
- For more about 'immutable' value read https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cache-Control#immutable

- we recently switched to using different folders within `core/built`, to
indicate the assets that are applicable for development/production
environments
- unfortunately, this came with the side effect of the "development" assets
missing in the published tarball, which meant Admin wouldn't load when
running in development mode
- this was a regression from how it previously worked because we used to
just copy the production HTML file to the development HTML name, and
use the same assets
- after thinking about it, I think we can get rid of the split folders
for assets, because I don't think the use-case is there for having
them:
- if you run Ghost from source, you're 99% only using the
development-built assets
- if you want production ones, you can run with a flag, but the
development ones get wiped anyway
- those running Ghost from a published package are using the same
assets and HTML file
- therefore, I think we can make our lives simpler by removing the env
folders and using a folder under `core/built/admin/...`
- this commit implements that across Ghost and Admin

- Admin now copies it's build output to a single env-specific directory rather than splitting html and assets
- `core/built/admin/{development|production}/*`
- updated the admin app's `serveStatic` definition for assets and controller's html serving to reflect the new asset paths
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/354
- this commit turns the Ghost repo into a monorepo so we can bring our
internal packages back in, which makes life easier when working on
Ghost
