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.

This changeset converts the display of dates and times to be just UTC to match the recent changes in the backend. This unwinds a bit of work that was done previously and allows us to start with a clean slate in how we want to approach displaying dates and times going forward. It also adds a bit of explanatory text to help users.

At the moment if a user is pending we don’t show the ‘change’ link.
This is unhelpful because:
- there’s no way to remove this user
- there’s no way to change their phone number, if the reason that
they are still pending is because they’ve been unable to receive
the two factor code at the number they first provided
Direct string comparison in multiple places is prone to typos. It
also means that a consumer of the class needs to know that whether
a user is pending or active is held in the `state` property, which
is an implementation detail.
To keep the conditionals in the Jinja template more readable, this
commit moves the logic into a method on the model, where it can
be split over multiple statements and lines.
The model layer shouldn’t need to be concerned with sorting. For
services this means we can make a `SerialisedModelCollection` rather
than writing a manual loop.
Previously we were passing a flag to the API which handled this. Now
we are doing it at the time of clicking the link, not at the time of
storing the new password. We don’t need to update the timestamp twice,
so this commit removes the code which tells the API to do it.
When someone uses a fresh password reset link they have proved that they
have access to their inbox.
At the moment, when revalidating a user’s email address we wait until
after they’ve put in the 2FA code before updating the timestamp which
records when they last validated their email address[1].
We can’t think of a good reason that we need the extra assurance of a
valid 2FA code to assert that the user has access to their email –
they’ve done that just by clicking the link. When the user clicks the
link we already update their failed login count before they 2fa. Think
it makes sense to handle `email_access_validated_at` then too.
As a bonus, the functional tests never go as far as getting a 2FA code
after a password reset[2], so the functional test user never gets its
timestamp updated. This causes the functional tests start failing after
90 days. By moving the update to this point we ensure that the
functional tests will keep passing indefinitely.
1. This code in the API (91542ad33e/app/dao/users_dao.py (L131))
which is called by this code in the admin app (9ba37249a4/app/utils/login.py (L26))

This renames the two functions we have to translate between UI and
DB permissions, as well as some of their associated variables to
make it clearer which kind of permission they contain.
We don't use this term consistently and it's not defined anywhere.
Since most of the Admin app deals with user-facing permssions, it's
OK to just use the term "permissions". Where both types of permission
are present in the same file, we can more clearly distinguish them
as "UI permissions" and "DB permissions".
This is useful information to store for the event, which would be
lost if someone subsequently changed them.
Rather than updating lots of mock assertions, I've replaced them
with a single test / assert at a lower level, which is consistent
with auditing being a non-critical function.
I've used the term "admin_roles" in the event data to try and show
that these are not the permissions we store in the DB. This is the
name we use for the abstracted form of permissions in the Admin app.
While we could store the DB permissions, that would be a bit more
effort and arguably it's clearer to keep the event data consistent
with the options the user actually saw / chose.
Usually we have imports at the top. It looks like the reason for
them being inline was to avoid a circular import, but we can also
avoid this by not importing everything from the app module.
Since we're about to add more imports from event_handlers, now is
a good time to refactor them. Note this matches how we import the
event handlers in every other module.
