Allowed domains consist of `REMARK_URL` second-level domain (or whole IP in case it's IP like `127.0.0.1`) and `ALLOWED_HOSTS`. That is needed to prevent Remark42 from asking arbitrary servers and storing the page title as the comment.PostTitle.
Previous behaviour allowed the caller of the API to create a comment
with an arbitrary URL and learn the title of the page, which might be
accessible to the server Remark42 is installed on but not to the user
outside that network (CWE-918).

Without this option, the aud is ignored.
It works only with RPC admin storage.
The shared key returned for all requests with the default shared admin
storage, so enabling that option does not affect it.
After this commit, dev auth would start working with the `REMARK_URL`
hostname instead of the previously hardcoded 127.0.0.1.
Breaks development setup where `REMARK_URL` was set
to a non-standard value and dev auth was running on 127.0.0.1
and working, as, after that change, it would stop working.
For example, when notify.telegram.token and telegram.token
are both set but to different values, user might see
"access denied" error in log on attempt to send telegram
notification, thinking that notify.telegram.token value
is used, when in fact it is ignored and only telegram.token
is used.
New behavior is the same, ignoring the old param when new
one is set, but issuing the error log message which
explicitly tells the user about that.
Resolves#1218.
Previously it was done through writing bot first,
clicking a button, copying the token, and pasting
it into the web interface.
The new flow is way simpler: click the link
to write bot a message, then click the "Check"
button in the web UI and you got notifications
enabled.
The current state is a mess of user and admin
notifications, which will become worse after
implementing the new user notification methods
like a telegram.
This change makes things simpler
for the remark42 users.
Before:
failed to make notify service,
failed to create email notification destination:
can't set templates:
can't read message template:
open email_reply.html.tmpl:
no such file or directory
After:
make notify, types=[email]
create notifier service, queue size=100, destinations=1
