If you tried to add a delay in `refreshObjectMetadataItems` like this`
await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 5000))`, then this
caused an issue where the user was redirected to his workspace because
the metadata was not loaded.
This happened because I had removed the call to fetch metadata
explicitly in useAuth (instead relying on the effect to fetch it because
it was done twice). I had removed it because this was causing issues in
the onboarding process where /metadata was called too early and then
cached with the wrong reply.
The correct fix is instead to change the fetch policy to `network only`
to stop hiding re-renders to the object metadata effect with Apollo's
cache mechanism. Now the [] reply isn't cached in the onboarding, the
metadata effect is only triggered during initial page load and refresh
should be called explicitely.
I also noticed a bug on the server side where sometimes the frontend was
passing a token for public requests (login token exchange request,
public domain data request). I removed the check so that the backend
completely ignores the token when it's passed on public request. The
downside is that we're losing information for logs (who did that request
to a public endpoint), but it doesn't make much sense to throw
authentication errors on that endpoint imo. Probably a better root-cause
fix would be to understand why a token is still passed on the frontend,
but that would require more investigation — the bug happened when I was
signing up and redirected from the app.xxx domain to the workspace
domain
Refresh of `objectmetadataitems` was not happening fast enough. Page was
breaking when enabling the feature flag. Instead of not storing worklow
objects in state, we will use the feature flag to block on read. This
way we avoid race conditions

From now on workflow entities and views will be seed for every new
workspace. What will prevent user to see those is the feature flag used
in frontend. It will prevent workflow objects to be stored in the recoil
state.
Without feature flag, workflows will:
- remain invisible in metadata
- not be accessible through views or show page
- remain invisible on side menu
In this PR, I'm
- removing setting up the isAppWaitingForFreshMetadata boolean state in
PageChangeEffect navigate (not robust) to some precise synchronous
places, improving the control we have on when the app considers it's
ready to be rendered based on fresh metadata
- fixing tests
