## Description
This PR implements Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) support for user
accounts, enhancing security by requiring a second form of verification
during login. The feature adds TOTP (Time-based One-Time Password)
authentication with QR code generation and backup codes for account
recovery.
## Type of change
- [ ] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
## How Has This Been Tested?
- Added comprehensive RSpec tests for MFA controller functionality
- Tested MFA setup flow with QR code generation
- Verified OTP validation and backup code generation
- Tested login flow with MFA enabled/disabled

The system determines a user’s active account by checking the
`active_at` field in the `account_users` table and selecting the most
recently active account:
```ruby
def active_account_user
account_users.order(active_at: :desc)&.first
end
```
This works fine when all accounts have a valid active_at timestamp.
**Problem**
When a user is added to a new account, the `active_at` value is NULL
(because the account has never been explicitly activated). Ordering by
active_at DESC produces inconsistent results across databases, since
handling of NULL values differs (sometimes treated as high, sometimes
low).
As a result:
- Mobile apps (critical impact): `/profile` returns the wrong account.
The UI keeps showing the old account even after switching, and
restarting does not fix it.
- Web app (accidentally works): Appears correct because the active
account is inferred from the browser URL, but the backend API is still
wrong.
**Root Cause**
- The ordering logic did not account for NULL `active_at`.
- New accounts without active_at sometimes get incorrectly prioritized
as the “active” account.
**Solution**
Explicitly ensure that accounts with NULL active_at are sorted after
accounts with real timestamps by using NULLS LAST:
```ruby
def active_account_user
account_users.order(Arel.sql('active_at DESC NULLS LAST, id DESC'))&.first
end
```
- Accounts with actual `active_at` values will always be prioritized.
- New accounts (with NULL active_at) will be placed at the bottom until
the user explicitly activates them.
- Adding id DESC as a secondary ordering ensures consistent tie-breaking
when multiple accounts have the same `active_at`.
This PR addresses several items listed in our rubocop_todo by implementing the necessary corrections and enhancements. As a result, we are now able to remove the rubocop_todo file entirely, streamlining our codebase and ensuring adherence to our coding standards.

fixes: #3853
- Introduced DISABLE_GRAVATAR Global Config, which will stop chatwoot from making API requests to gravatar
- Cleaned up avatar-related logic and centralized it into the avatarable concern
- Added specs for the missing cases
- Added migration for existing installations to move the avatar to attachment, rather than making the API that results in 404.
Users can change their email from profile settings. They will be logged out immediately. Users can log in again with the updated email without verifying the same. This is a security problem.
So this change enforce the user to reconfirm the email after changing it. Users can log in with the updated email only after the confirmation.

- migrations to split roles and other attributes from users table
- make changes in code to accommodate this change
