Retraction Watch has renamed, merged, and added reason terms since these
were added, leaving only 65 of the 102 entries matching a term still in
use. 90% of retracted items had at least one reason that didn't show a
description, and 21% showed none at all. Rebuilt from the current
Appendix B list, which covers every reason in the data.

Plugins written for earlier versions call methods like
CollectionTree#getSelectedSearch(), which now throw. We did this
intentionally to make old code more obviously broken, even with single
selection, so developers would fix their code, but we're not yet
blocking plugins that illegitimately declared compatibility with a
future version, so some haven't been updated and are breaking Zotero.
With a single row selected, the pre-10 functions can technically
continue to work, so for now, restore them and just warn and name the
plugin instead of throwing. They still need to throw if multiple rows
are selected, since plugins that haven't been updated can't safely act
on a selection that might span collections or libraries.

FSEvents is backed by a per-volume journal that only local volumes
have. On a network mount the stream is created and started
successfully but never delivers events, so the watcher would report
that nothing had changed for as long as it was used. Check the volume
with statfs() and fall back to scanning.

Since f21e1b2d32, a full local file scan no longer runs periodically and
on every manual sync, so locally missed attachments stayed marked for
upload and were skipped as unavailable instead of being downloaded.
"Reset File Sync History" marked every attachment for upload, including
files that had never been downloaded, so the forced download check added
in 404fc41b88 found nothing to download.
Missing files are now marked for download when the upload queue is
filled, and in at-sync-time mode they're downloaded in the same sync.
The reset marks them for download directly, and downloads are no longer
skipped just because there were no remote storage changes.

Editing a note flagged it stale, and the background drain indexed it and
then ran an FTS5 'optimize' -- a single statement that rewrites the
content index and can hold the shared database for over a minute --
because the queue was empty again. Note saves waiting on the connection
hit the transaction timeout and told the user to restart Zotero.
Merge the index in bounded steps instead, so no statement runs long
enough to keep other queries waiting, and only after enough items have
been indexed to be worth it.

A permanently closed connection kept its idle observer, so it went on
being notified and attempting backups for the life of the process. This
affects plugin databases, which are closed permanently when the plugin
shuts down.
(cherry picked from commit 9e45191b22)
The observer was added on every open with no matching removal, so each
reopen left behind another registration that received its own idle
notification. On macOS, where the periodic backup closes and reopens the
connection, the registrations accumulated and multiplied the work done
on each idle.

(cherry picked from commit 7243648ed7)
currentDBTime and lastBackupTime became Date objects when the backup was
made asynchronous in 2014, so comparing them with == has tested object
identity and returned false ever since. The interval check that follows
measures from the backup file's mtime, which a copy inherits from the
database file, so an unchanged database was backed up on every idle.

Any Field expands to a generic 'field' condition, which the cross-level
code treated as matching only on top-level items. At an attachment
result level it therefore matched attachments whose parent item had the
value, instead of attachments with the value themselves. Since the
condition stands in for every field, it's now treated as matching at any
level those fields live at.

(cherry picked from commit 4e532a17a2)
The online backup API writes the backup file through SQLite's default
VFS, whose locking can hang on network filesystems -- its lock upgrades
conflict with the SMB byte-range lock mapping on CIFS mounts and retry
forever -- so fall back to an offline backup, which copies the file
with the connection closed. Extends getFileSystemInfo() to Linux using
statfs f_type magic numbers.

Adds 'smb' and 'nfs' entries to the test matrix that run the DB and
file test suites with the test data directory on a loopback CIFS or
NFS mount, covering the network-filesystem database handling from
bba85a3939. The test harness places the data directory under TMPDIR,
so connection initialization itself runs against the share, which is
where network-filesystem failures (startup crashes and hangs) occur.
The step timeout turns a startup hang into a failure.
(cherry picked from commit 18f6fa50d5)
On macOS, SQLite chooses locking methods based on the filesystem
containing the database, and network filesystems (e.g., SMB, NFS),
read-only volumes, and filesystems without byte-range locking get
methods without shared-memory support, which WAL requires. Opening a
database with an adjacent WAL file on those crashes -- Mozilla's VFS
wrapper hides the missing shared-memory methods from SQLite's WAL
support check -- so the first Zotero 10 run converted the database to
WAL and every launch after that segfaulted during connection
initialization.
On macOS, mirror SQLite's method selection and use a rollback journal
when shared memory isn't available, converting an existing WAL database
before opening it: an empty WAL by reverting the header format versions
in place, and a non-empty WAL by replaying it into a temporary copy on
local disk that replaces the database file only after passing an
integrity check. A WAL file next to an already-converted database
(e.g., from an interrupted conversion) goes through the same
conversion. Also use openNotExclusive during integrity checks and
corruption recovery, which otherwise fail on SMB shares with an I/O
error from the exclusive open lock.
This corrects 22055d92b7, which passed openNotExclusive on all
platforms for an open failure described as affecting macOS and Linux,
and expected locking_mode=EXCLUSIVE to keep the WAL index in heap
memory with no -shm file. Neither claim held up: mozStorage opens the
WAL while initializing the connection, before any pragma can run, so
the index uses shared memory unless the exclusive VFS is in use, and
the exclusive open works on Linux CIFS mounts -- where non-exclusive
access instead made SQLite's lock-upgrade sequence trip over the SMB
byte-range lock mapping, leaving startup hung and the database never
created. So pass openNotExclusive only on macOS. On Linux this restores
unix-excl, which performs all locking under a single held lock and
keeps the WAL index in heap memory; Windows has no distinct exclusive
VFS and is unaffected.
