Using anything non-serializable for action types is discouraged:
https://redux.js.org/faq/actions#actions
In fact, this is the Flow definition for dispatching actions:
declare export type DispatchAPI<A> = (action: A) => A;
declare export type Dispatch<A: { type: $Subtype<string> }> = DispatchAPI<A>;
Note how the `type` field is defined as a subtype of string, which Symbol isn’t.
If a relative BOSH URL is found (as docker-jitsi-meet does) construct a full URL
based on the location URL and context root.
Also remove some default options since we need the config file anyway, so I see
no point in doing the extra work.
Unfortunately, as the Jitsi Meet development evolved the routing mechanism
became more complex and thre logic ended up spread across multiple parts of the
codebase, which made it hard to follow and extend.
This change aims to fix that by rewriting the routing logic and centralizing it
in (pretty much) a single place, with no implicit inter-dependencies.
In order to arrive there, however, some extra changes were needed, which were
not caught early enough and are thus part of this change:
- JitsiMeetJS initialization is now synchronous: there is nothing async about
it, and the only async requirement (Temasys support) was lifted. See [0].
- WebRTC support can be detected early: building on top of the above, WebRTC
support can now be detected immediately, so take advantage of this to simplify
how we handle unsupported browsers. See [0].
The new router takes decissions based on the Redux state at the time of
invocation. A route can be represented by either a component or a URl reference,
with the latter taking precedence. On mobile, obviously, there is no concept of
URL reference so routing is based solely on components.

* fix(connection): reload immediately on possible split-brain
There isn't an explicit way to know when a split brain
scenario has happened. It is assumed it arises when an
"item-not-found" connection error is encountered early
on in the conference. So, store when a connection has
happened so it be calculated how much time has
elapsed and if the threshold has not been exceeded
then do an immediate reload of the app instead of
showing the overlay with a reload timer.
* squash: rename isItemNotFoundError -> isShardChangedError
Currently the listeners for disconnected and failed connection events
are unsubscribed as soon as the connection is established, so
the CONNECTION_DISCONNECTED is never triggered which would clear the
'connection' field. This commit will clear the 'connection' state on
CONNECTION_WILL_CONNECT. It's needed anyway given that there's no
guarantee on when and if the async disconnect operation will finish.
One issue caused by the 'connection' not cleared was that
CONNECTION_FAILED was not reduced correctly and the reload screen was
not displayed for the following scenario:
1. Join and leave any working conference.
2. Turn off network connectivity on the device.
3. Wait for CONNECTION_FAILED. The reload screen will not be displayed,
because CONNECTION_FAILED is not reduced correctly, because the old
'connection' value is still there.
In order to be able to add analytics to the deep-linking pages the
lib-jitsi-meet initialization has been moved so it happens earlier.
The introduced `initPromise` will eventually disappear, once conference is
migrated into React and / or support for Temasys is dropped. At that stage, it
can be turned into a sync function which all platforms share.
* Handles connection failed event details (passing them to analytics).
* Fixing comments.
* Updates depending versions to be able to test.
* Fixing comments.
* Fixes wrong jsdoc.
Properly handle errors while connecting or joining a conference. Prior to this
patch, only errors on established conferences / connections were saved to the
redux store.
Initializing UI features, like keyboard shortcuts, by chaining
onto APP.conference.init is not safe because init can fail,
skipping the initializing of UI features. This can happen when
the room is locked and then a failure event is dispatched into
middleware. I couldn't find a place to properly chain onto
in the APP.conference.init promise chain, primarily due
to the flow continued within middleware, so instead I
leveraged an existing listener for CONFERENCE_JOINED.
Will override email, display name and avatar URL with the values
provided in 'context.user' structure of the JWT token.
Settings will no longer be used to retrieve local display name,
email and avatar URL. Now those values will be obtained from
the /features/base/participants Redux state.
fix(jwt/middleware): use const for default name
fix: wrong default display name on web
ref(base/participants): remove getDisplayName functions
ref(jwt): do not accept unknown user fields
ESLint 4.8.0 discovers a lot of error related to formatting. While I
tried to fix as many of them as possible, a portion of them actually go
against our coding style. In such a case, I've disabled the indent rule
which effectively leaves it as it was before ESLint 4.8.0.
Additionally, remove jshint because it's becoming a nuisance with its
lack of understanding of ES2015+.
* Javadoc introduced @code as a replacement of <code> and <tt> which is
better aligned with other javadoc tags such as @link. Use it in the
Java source code. If we switch to Kotlin, then we'll definitely use
Markdown.
* There are more uses of @code in the JavaScript source code than <tt>
so use @code for the sake of consistency. Eventually, I'd rather we
switch to Markdown because it's easier on my eyes.
* Xcode is plain confused by @code and @link. The Internet says that
Xcode supports the backquote character to denote the beginning and end
of a string of characters which should be formatted for display as
code but it doesn't work for me. <tt> is not rendered at all. So use
the backquote which is rendered itself. Hopefully, if we switch to
Markdown, then it'll be common between JavaScript and Objective-C
source code.
Gradually, we exploded the error of CONNECTION_FAILED in multiple
redux state properties. The explosion makes maintenance harder because
the properties have to be updated in sync. Collect them in an object
resembling an Error instance.
In order to support XMPP authentication, we'll need the message
accompanying the error and carried by lib-jitsi-meet's
CONFERENCE_FAILED in the redux store. We already carry the message in
the redux action and we've got the error in the redux store.
Keep track of the connection and conference objects so we can leave and / or
disconnect early, before the connection is established or the conference joined.
