This changeset removes webauthn from the Notify.gov admin app. We are not using webauthn at all in our implementation and will be looking at an entirely different authentication system in the near future.

We signal that we're mid-way through the sign-in flow by adding a
`user_details` dict to the session.
previously, we'd only put a user's details in the session in `User.sign_in`,
just before sending any 2fa prompt and redirecting to the two factor
pages.
However, we found a bug where a user with no session (eg, using a fresh
browser) tried to log in, but they had never clicked the link to
validate their email address when registering. Their user's state was
still in "pending", so we redirected to `main.resend_email_verification`
as intended - however, they didn't have anything in the session and the
resend page expected to get the email address to resend to out of that.
To be safe, as soon as we've confirmed the user has entered their
password correctly, lets save the session data at that point. That way
any redirects will be fine.
if user has `webauthn_auth` as their auth type, then redirect them to an
interstitial that prompts them to click on a button which right now just
logs to the JS console, but in a future commit will open up the webauthn
browser prompt
content is unsurprisingly not final.
When showing what auth type user uses to sign in, add a text
for users with webauthn.
On password change or sign in, throw not implemented error
if user uses webauthn auth.
now that we no longer set it since
https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-admin/pull/3841 was merged, we
don't need to remove it either. And we can remove checks that expect it
when cleaning up the session. And the unit tests that make sure we
ignore it if it's in the session.
So long, session['invited_user'] and session['invited_org_user']!
Google’s documentation says:
> robots.txt is not a mechanism for keeping a web page out of Google. To
> keep a web page out of Google, you should use noindex directives
A noindex directive means adding the following meta tag to pages that
shouldn’t be indexed:
```html
<meta name="robots" content="noindex" />
```
It’s also possible to set the directive as a HTTP header, but this seems
trickier to achieve on a per-view basis in Flask.
I’ve implemented this as a decorator so it can quickly be added to any
other pages that we decide shouldn’t appear in search results.
The data flow of other bits of our application looks like this:
```
API (returns JSON)
⬇
API client (returns a built in type, usually `dict`)
⬇
Model (returns an instance, eg of type `Service`)
⬇
View (returns HTML)
```
The user API client was architected weirdly, in that it returned a model
directly, like this:
```
API (returns JSON)
⬇
API client (returns a model, of type `User`, `InvitedUser`, etc)
⬇
View (returns HTML)
```
This mixing of different layers of the application is bad because it
makes it hard to write model code that doesn’t have circular
dependencies. As our application gets more complicated we will be
relying more on models to manage this complexity, so we should make it
easy, not hard to write them.
It also means that most of our mocking was of the User model, not just
the underlying JSON. So it would have been easy to introduce subtle bugs
to the user model, because it wasn’t being comprehensively tested. A lot
of the changed lines of code in this commit mean changing the tests to
mock only the JSON, which means that the model layer gets implicitly
tested.
For those reasons this commit changes the user API client to return
JSON, not an instance of `User` or other models.
Some users are bookmarking the sign in page for quick access to their
Notify service.
If they’re already signed in when they used this bookmark they get
redirected. However the redirect isn’t very smart, because it just takes
them to their list of services. This isn’t great if they only have one
service.
This commit redirects them to the `show_accounts_or_dashboard` endpoint
instead, which does the work to figure out which page is most useful
to show someone when they sign in.
Also changing this for `/register`, although it’s less likely that
someone will have bookmarked this page.
Done using isort[1], with the following command:
```
isort -rc ./app ./tests
```
Adds linting to the `run_tests.sh` script to stop badly-sorted imports
getting re-introduced.
Chosen style is ‘Vertical Hanging Indent’ with trailing commas, because
I think it gives the cleanest diffs, eg:
```
from third_party import (
lib1,
lib2,
lib3,
lib4,
)
```

Email addresses in invites should be case insensitive. This is to stop
the bug where a user creates their account using a lower case email
address (e.g. user1@gov.uk), but is then invited to a service using
their email address in a different case (e.g. USER1.gov.uk) and sees
an error message telling them that they can't accept an invite for a
different email address.
Since we’re doing this globally, we don’t need to handle it in a custom
way for the sign in form (and it’s much nicer encapsulated like this).
Also added some more extensive tests in this commit.
If you copy and paste an email address into the sign in box, there’s a
chance you’ll also copy some leading or trailing spaces. This is
especially likely to happen if you’re doing this while using your
computer upside down.
If this happens, it never even gets as far as looking up the user,
because the form validation doesn’t consider a string with a leading
space to be a valid email address.
This commit makes sure that accidental spaces are handled, by removing
them before doing any validation or hitting the API to look up the user.
