#3485: HelpHub: Support theme update and associated plugin
-------------------------+-----------------------
 Reporter:  Clorith      |      Owner:

 Priority:  normal       |  Milestone:
Component:  Support Hub  |   Keywords:  has-patch
-------------------------+-----------------------
 HelpHub builds on the support theme, but with some custom post types and
 widgets to customize the landing page of `wordpress.org/support`, and
 organize content.

 The patch includes the following theme changes:
 - A generic archive template, when more article types are planned for
 future phases we will likely introduce different archive views.
 - The current forums front page is moved to the `archive-forum` template.
 - A new (conditional) front page is introduced, it uses widgets and relies
 on the link block widget in the patch. If the widgets are undefined, the
 fallback is to use the forums archive like today.
 - Generic code style cleanup.

 The following plugin is introduced during the initial release:
 - Adds a `support-helphub` plugin, in the same spirit as `support-forums`
 - Custom post types for various articles
 - A widget for declaring link blocks for the front page.

 Enabling Gutenberg on `WordPress.org/support` is also a request to go
 along with this. The post types we'll be working with for now are REST
 enabled for this purpose.
 Gutenberg has been checked to not cause any issues with bbPress, so that
 shouldn't be a concern at this time.
