Synk reported an Remote Code Execution vulnerability for the
passport-ldapauth dependency `bunyan`. This RCE is due to wrong command
sanitizing but doesn't only affects the executable the libary provides.
It has no impact on CodiMD.
This patch just updates passport-ldapauth since it's long overdue anyway
and to silence annoying security scanners that pretend this is rather
critical for us.

This is a backport of #278 with the default value of `scope` changed to
`undefined`. This is thus a fully backward-compatible change.

Our frontend requests the `/me` pathname in order to determine whether
it's logged in or not. Due to the fact that the sameSite attribute of
the session cookie was set to `strict` in a previous commit, the session
token was no longer sent along with HTTP calls initiated by JS. This is
due to the RFCs definition of "safe" HTTP calls in RFC7231.
The bug triggers the UI to show up like an unauthenticated user, even
after a successful login. In order to debug it a look into the send
cookies to the `/me` turned out to be very enlightening.
The fix this patch implements is rather simple, it replaces the sameSite
attribute to `lax` which enables the cookies for those requests again.
Some older and mobile clients were unaffected by this due to the lack of
implementations of sameSite policies.

We enabled the `secure` flag for various cookies in previous commits.
This caused setups behind reverse proxies to drop cookies as the nodejs
instance wasn't aware of the fact that it was able to hand out secure
commits using an insecure connection (between the codimd instance and
the reverse proxy).
This patch makes express, the webserver framework we use, aware of
proxies and this way re-enabled the handing out of cookies. Not only the
cookie monster will enjoy, but also functionality like authentication
and real-time editing will return as intended.

As @davidmehren figured out, the problem that NodeJS version 14 gets
stuck while CodiMD is starting, was due to the outdated postgres
dependency. The old pg version doesn't work with node version 14 due to
an undocumented API change in the `readyState` in the socket API.
This patch updates the required dependency and this way resolves the
issue.

The socket.io cookie doesn't really have any purpose as it's no longer
user in modern socket.io versions. This patch disables it.

While HSTS should take care of most of this, setting cookies to be
secure, and only applied on same site helps to improve situations where
for whatever reason, downgrade attacks are still a thing.
This patch adds the `sameSite` and `secure` to the session cookie and
this way prevent all accidents where a browser may doesn't support HSTS
or HSTS is intentionally dropped.

According to https://github.com/socketio/socket.io/issues/2276 this cookie is not used for anything. To avoid browser warnings about the sameSite attribute, we disable it here.

Modern browsers do not support (or will stop supporting) sameSite: none (or no sameSite attribute) without the Secure flag. As we don't want everyone to be able to make requests with our cookies anyway, this commit sets sameSite to strict. See https://developer.mozilla.org/de/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie/SameSite

Adding translations for permissions for a possible 1.6.1 release doesn't
hurt but might helps some usecases of running CodiMD and we'll need the
translations in the new frontend anyway.
This patch adds the translations as well as the english local file.

This patch cleans up the remaining possible foreign-key constraint. This
case seem to appear, when notes are deleted, but due to missing database
contraints not their authroships.
This function should clean that up as well and complete the preparation
for the new db contraints.

In order to prevent OOM situations due to large databases, this patch
should reduce the amount of data requested from the database
drastically.
