Original implementation of authorship test assumed a simple pad reload
would switch the author -- and it actually did on Chrome. But other
browsers might keep the author id on cookie.
To force the author switch, expire the cookie before reloading the pad.
Fixes: #3435
This is a modification of PR #3474 by rohieb <rohieb@rohieb.name>.
When this script is run after an update, and something fails during the npm
run, the installed plugins were deleted, too.
In this version what gets deleted is only the directory that contains the
direct dependencies of the core Etherpad, ie:
node_modules/ep_etherpad-lite/node_modules
This series is an attempt to reduce the control structure depth of the code
base, maintaining at the same time its exact same behaviour, bugs included. It
is, in a sense, an initial attempt at a refactoring in the spirit of its
original definition [0].
The idea beyond this refactoring is that reducing the code depth and, sometimes,
inverting some conditions, bugs and logic errors may become easier to spot, and
the code easier to read.
When looked at while ignoring white space changes, all of these diffs should
appear trivial.

Since the original comparison compared for truthy and not for "===", and it's
3 AM now, I blindly negated it, in order to show how fragile it was in the first
instance.
No functional changes.
This is the final commit of this refactoring series.
Get rid of an else branch to simplify code layout. No functional changes at all.

It's just synctactic sugar, but it is always better than executing string
concatenations in one's mind.
Do not do this with files in src/static, because we want to keep IE 11
compatibility.
The old "static/custom" directory is replaced by "static/skins/<skinName>",
where <skinName> is taken from settings.json.
When no value is found, a default of "no-skin" is assumed, so that backward
compatibility is maintained.
The most evident security concerns have been addressed.
Closes#3471.
skinName must be a single string (no directory separators in it) pointing to an
existing directory under /src/static/skins.
In case these conditions are not met, its value is rewritten to "no-skin".
Also, the value of skinName if sent to the client via clientVars for allowing
its use it in the browser.
Currently, an Etherpad skin requires the existence of 6 files:
- index.{css,js}
- pad.{css,js}
- timeslider.{css,js}
In the default empty skin (in static/custom), there were 2 small placeholders
({js,css}.template) to be copied in place by the startup script in case no skin
was in use.
Now that we are moving to multiple directories (see #3471) we can simply commit
the example files and remove the copying code from the startup script.
