- Implement Redis hashes on the caching service, based on Micha's work
in #7747, adapted from `node-cache-manager-ioredis-yet`. Optimize
workflow ownership lookups and manual webhook lookups with Redis hashes.
- Simplify the caching service by removing all currently unused methods
and options: `enable`, `disable`, `getCache`, `keys`, `keyValues`,
`refreshFunctionEach`, `refreshFunctionMany`, `refreshTtl`, etc.
- Remove the flag `N8N_CACHE_ENABLED`. Currently some features on
`master` are broken with caching disabled, and test webhooks now rely
entirely on caching, for multi-main setup support. We originally
introduced this flag to protect against excessive memory usage, but
total cache usage is low enough that we decided to drop this setting.
Apparently this flag was also never documented.
- Overall caching service refactor: use generics, reduce branching, add
discriminants for cache kinds for better type safety, type caching
events, improve readability, remove outdated docs, etc. Also refactor
and expand caching service tests.

In a multi-main setup, we have the following issue. The user's client
connects to main A and runs a test webhook, so main A starts listening
for a webhook call. A third-party service sends a request to the test
webhook URL. The request is forwarded by the load balancer to main B,
who is not listening for this webhook call. Therefore, the webhook call
is unhandled.
To start addressing this, cache test webhook registrations, using Redis
for queue mode and in-memory for regular mode. When the third-party
service sends a request to the test webhook URL, the request is
forwarded by the load balancer to main B, who fetches test webhooks from
the cache and, if it finds a match, executes the test webhook. This
should be transparent - test webhook behavior should remain the same as
so far.
Notes:
- Test webhook timeouts are not cached. A timeout is only relevant to
the process it was created in, so another process retrieving from Redis
a "foreign" timeout will be unable to act on it. A timeout also has
circular references, so `cache-manager-ioredis-yet` is unable to
serialize it.
- In a single-main scenario, the timeout remains in the single process
and is cleared on test webhook expiration, successful execution, and
manual cancellation - all as usual.
- In a multi-main scenario, we will need to have the process who
received the webhook call send a message to the process who created the
webhook directing this originating process to clear the timeout. This
will likely be implemented via execution lifecycle hooks and Redis
channel messages checking session ID. This implementation is out of
scope for this PR and will come next.
- Additional data in test webhooks is not cached. From what I can tell,
additional data is not needed for test webhooks to be executed.
Additional data also has circular references, so
`cache-manager-ioredis-yet` is unable to serialize it.
Follow-up to: #8155
## Summary
This PR continues refactoring webhooks code for better modularity.
Continued from #8069 to bring back `ActiveWebhooks`, but this time
actually handling active webhook calls in this class.
## Review / Merge checklist
- [x] PR title and summary are descriptive
This PR simplifies state in test webhooks so that it can be cached
easily. Caching this state will allow us to start using Redis for manual
webhooks, to support manual webhooks to work in multi-main setup.
- [x] Convert `workflowWebhooks` to a getter - no need to optimize for
deactivation
- [x] Remove array from value in `TestWebhooks.webhookUrls`
- [x] Consolidate `webhookUrls` and `registeredWebhooks`
## Summary
Add `ShutdownService` and `OnShutdown` decorator for more unified way to
shutdown different components. Use this new way in the following
components:
- HTTP(S) server
- Pruning service
- Push connection
- License

In the case of a filesystem failure to rename the binary files as part
of the execution's cleanup process, the execution would fail to be saved
and would never finish. This catch prevents it.
## Summary
Whenever an execution is wrapping u to save the data, if it uses binary
data n8n will try to find possibly misallocated files and place them in
the right folder. If this process fails, the execution fails to finish.
Given the execution has already finished at this point, and we cannot
handle the binary data errors more gracefully, all we can do at this
point is log the message as it's a filesystem issue. The rest of the
execution saving process should remain as normal.

When performing actions such as renaming a workflow or updating its
settings, n8n errors with "Failed to save workflow version" in the
console although the saving process was successful. We are now correctly
checking whether `nodes` and `connections` exist and only then save a
snapshot.
Github issue / Community forum post (link here to close automatically):
Saving execution data is one of the slowest DB operations in the
application, and is likely behind some of the sqlite transaction
concurrency issues we've been seeing.
This not only remove the 2 separate transactions for saving
`ExecutionEntity` and `ExecutionData`, but also remove fields from
`ExecutionData.workflowData` that don't need to be saved (like `tags`,
`shared`, `statistics`, `triggerCount`, etc).
## Summary
Deduplicate, separate, organize and speed up tests for subworkflow
caller policy checks.

This PR continues the effort of moving logic inside execution lifecycle
hooks into standalone testable functions, as a stepping stone to
refactoring the hooks themselves.
This PR introduces the following changes:
- New Vue stores: `collaborationStore` and `pushConnectionStore`
- Front-end push connection handling overhaul: Keep only a singe
connection open and handle it from the new store
- Add user avatars in the editor header when there are multiple users
working on the same workflow
- Sending a heartbeat event to back-end service periodically to confirm
user is still active
- Back-end overhauls (authored by @tomi):
- Implementing a cleanup procedure that removes inactive users
- Refactoring collaboration service current implementation

### Manual workflow activation and deactivation
In a multi-main scenario, if the user manually activates or deactivates
a workflow, the process (whether leader or follower) that handles the
PATCH request and updates its internal state should send a message into
the command channel, so that all other main processes update their
internal state accordingly:
- Add to `ActiveWorkflows` if activating
- Remove from `ActiveWorkflows` if deactivating
- Remove and re-add to `ActiveWorkflows` if the update did not change
activation status.
After updating their internal state, if activating or deactivating, the
recipient main processes should push a message to all connected
frontends so that these can update their stores and so reflect the value
in the UI.
### Workflow activation errors
On failure to activate a workflow, the main instance should record the
error in Redis - main instances should always pull activation errors
from Redis in a multi-main scenario.
### Leadership change
On leadership change...
- The old leader should stop pruning and the new leader should start
pruning.
- The old leader should remove trigger- and poller-based workflows and
the new leader should add them.
This PR:
- Creates `InvitationController`
- Moves `POST /users` to `POST /invitations` and move related test to
`invitations.api.tests`
- Moves `POST /users/:id` to `POST /invitations/:id/accept` and move
related test to `invitations.api.tests`
- Adjusts FE to use new endpoints
- Moves all the invitation logic to the `UserService`
