Facebook Messenger messages that share a post no longer break message
ingestion. Following the recent sticker change, Meta now sends a shared
post as a new `post` attachment type. Chatwoot didn't recognise `post`
as a valid attachment file type, so the webhook job crashed and the
message — and any others in the same batch — failed to sync. Shared
posts now appear in the conversation as a fallback link (title + URL),
the same way `share` attachments already do.
This is the same class of bug as #14793 (sticker), just a different
attachment type.
#### Root cause
`post` was neither skipped as unsupported nor mapped to a valid
`file_type`, so `attachment_params` produced `file_type: :post`. The
`Attachment#file_type` enum has no `post` value, so it raised
`ArgumentError: 'post' is not a valid file_type`, crashing
`Webhooks::FacebookEventsJob`.
#### Fix
The Facebook builder already maps `share -> :fallback` because shared
posts point to facebook.com page URLs rather than downloadable media. A
`post` is the same kind of attachment, so map both `share` and `post` to
`fallback` (stores the title/link, no download attempt). Also read the
fallback title from `payload.title`, since the post payload nests it
there rather than at the top level.
## How to reproduce
1. Connect a Facebook Page inbox.
2. Share a Facebook post into Messenger to that page.
3. Before this change: `Webhooks::FacebookEventsJob` raises
`ArgumentError: 'post' is not a valid file_type` and the message is
dropped.
4. After this change: the shared post shows up in the conversation as a
fallback link.

Fixes Facebook fallback and shared-post attachments so they render as
clickable links in conversations.
Closes:
- https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/4767
- https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/5327
Why:
Facebook can send shared links as `fallback` attachments with a
top-level `url`, and shared posts as `share` attachments with the URL
under `payload.url`. The current flow either misses the nested URL or
treats `share` as downloadable media, so these messages do not render
correctly.
What changed:
- Store Facebook fallback URLs from either `attachment.url` or
`attachment.payload.url`.
- Treat Facebook `share` attachments as fallback link attachments
instead of downloading them as files.
- Render fallback attachments in the next message bubble UI as clickable
links.
How to test:
1. Connect a Facebook inbox.
2. Send a shared link to the page.
3. Send/share a Facebook post to the page.
4. Open the conversation in Chatwoot.
5. Confirm both messages appear as clickable link bubbles.

When agents send replies from the native Facebook Messenger app (not
Chatwoot), echo events were created without external_echo metadata and
could be misrepresented in the UI. This change updates Messenger echo
message creation to:
- set content_attributes.external_echo = true for outgoing_echo messages
- set echo message status to delivered
- keep sender as nil for echo messages (existing behavior)

This change introduces the ability to lock conversations to a single thread for Instagram and facebook messages within the Meta inbox, mirroring existing functionality in WhatsApp and SMS inboxes.

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.
