Refactor the webhook logic, to have the type-dependent processing happen
only in one place.
---
1. An event happens
2. It is pre-processed (depending on the webhook type) and its body is
added to a task queue
3. When the task is processed, some more logic (depending on the webhook
type as well) is applied to make an HTTP request
This means that webhook-type dependant logic is needed in step 2 and 3.
This is cumbersome and brittle to maintain.
Updated webhook flow with this PR:
1. An event happens
2. It is stored as-is and added to a task queue
3. When the task is processed, the event is processed (depending on the
webhook type) to make an HTTP request
So the only webhook-type dependent logic happens in one place (step 3)
which should be much more robust.
- the raw event must be stored in the hooktask (until now, the
pre-processed body was stored)
- to ensure that previous hooktasks are correctly sent, a
`payload_version` is added (version 1: the body has already been
pre-process / version 2: the body is the raw event)
So future webhook additions will only have to deal with creating an
http.Request based on the raw event (no need to adjust the code in
multiple places, like currently).
Moreover since this processing happens when fetching from the task
queue, it ensures that the queuing of new events (upon a `git push` for
instance) does not get slowed down by a slow webhook.
As a concrete example, the PR #19307 for custom webhooks, should be
substantially smaller:
- no need to change `services/webhook/deliver.go`
- minimal change in `services/webhook/webhook.go` (add the new webhook
to the map)
- no need to change all the individual webhook files (since with this
refactor the `*webhook_model.Webhook` is provided as argument)

When `webhook.PROXY_URL` has been set, the old code will check if the
proxy host is in `ALLOWED_HOST_LIST` or reject requests through the
proxy. It requires users to add the proxy host to `ALLOWED_HOST_LIST`.
However, it actually allows all requests to any port on the host, when
the proxy host is probably an internal address.
But things may be even worse. `ALLOWED_HOST_LIST` doesn't really work
when requests are sent to the allowed proxy, and the proxy could forward
them to any hosts.
This PR fixes it by:
- If the proxy has been set, always allow connectioins to the host and
port.
- Check `ALLOWED_HOST_LIST` before forwarding.
Previously, there was an `import services/webhooks` inside
`modules/notification/webhook`.
This import was removed (after fighting against many import cycles).
Additionally, `modules/notification/webhook` was moved to
`modules/webhook`,
and a few structs/constants were extracted from `models/webhooks` to
`modules/webhook`.

When re-retrieving hook tasks from the DB double check if they have not
been delivered in the meantime. Further ensure that tasks are marked as
delivered when they are being delivered.
In addition:
* Improve the error reporting and make sure that the webhook task
population script runs in a separate goroutine.
* Only get hook task IDs out of the DB instead of the whole task when
repopulating the queue
* When repopulating the queue make the DB request paged

_This is a different approach to #20267, I took the liberty of adapting
some parts, see below_
## Context
In some cases, a weebhook endpoint requires some kind of authentication.
The usual way is by sending a static `Authorization` header, with a
given token. For instance:
- Matrix expects a `Bearer <token>` (already implemented, by storing the
header cleartext in the metadata - which is buggy on retry #19872)
- TeamCity #18667
- Gitea instances #20267
- SourceHut https://man.sr.ht/graphql.md#authentication-strategies (this
is my actual personal need :)
## Proposed solution
Add a dedicated encrypt column to the webhook table (instead of storing
it as meta as proposed in #20267), so that it gets available for all
present and future hook types (especially the custom ones #19307).
This would also solve the buggy matrix retry #19872.
As a first step, I would recommend focusing on the backend logic and
improve the frontend at a later stage. For now the UI is a simple
`Authorization` field (which could be later customized with `Bearer` and
`Basic` switches):
The header name is hard-coded, since I couldn't fine any usecase
justifying otherwise.
## Questions
- What do you think of this approach? @justusbunsi @Gusted @silverwind
- ~~How are the migrations generated? Do I have to manually create a new
file, or is there a command for that?~~
- ~~I started adding it to the API: should I complete it or should I
drop it? (I don't know how much the API is actually used)~~
## Done as well:
- add a migration for the existing matrix webhooks and remove the
`Authorization` logic there
_Closes #19872_
