This change blocks Help Center access for default/Hacker-plan accounts
and closes the downgrade gap that could leave `help_center` enabled
after a subscription falls back to the default cloud plan.
Fixes: none
Closes: none
## Why
Default-plan accounts should not be able to access the Help Center, but
the downgrade fallback path only reset the plan name and did not
reconcile premium feature flags. That meant some accounts could keep
`help_center` enabled even after landing back on the Hacker/default
plan.
## What this change does
- blocks Help Center portal and article access for default/Hacker-plan
accounts
- reconciles premium feature flags when a subscription falls back to the
default cloud plan, so `help_center` is disabled immediately instead of
waiting for a later webhook
- preserves existing account `custom_attributes` during Stripe customer
recreation instead of overwriting them
- adds Enterprise coverage for the default-plan access checks on hosted
and custom-domain Help Center routes
- fixes the public access check to use the resolved portal object so
blocked requests return the intended response instead of raising an
error
## Validation
1. Create or use an account on the default/Hacker cloud plan with an
active portal.
2. Visit the portal home page and a published article on both the
Chatwoot-hosted URL and a configured custom domain.
3. Confirm the Help Center is blocked for that account.
4. Downgrade a paid account back to the default/Hacker plan through the
Stripe webhook flow.
5. Confirm `help_center` is disabled right after the downgrade fallback
is processed and the account can no longer access the Help Center.

This adds a draft status for Help Center locales so teams can prepare
localized content in the dashboard without exposing those locales in the
public portal switcher until they are ready to publish.
Fixes: https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/10412
Closes: https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/10412
## Why
Teams need a way to work on locale-specific Help Center content ahead of
launch. The public portal should only show ready locales, while the
admin dashboard should continue to expose every allowed locale for
ongoing article and category work.
## What this change does
- Adds `draft_locales` to portal config as a subset of `allowed_locales`
- Hides drafted locales from the public portal language switchers while
keeping direct locale URLs working
- Keeps drafted locales fully visible in the admin dashboard for article
and category management
- Adds locale actions to move an existing locale to draft, publish a
drafted locale, and keep the default locale protected from drafting
- Adds a status dropdown when creating a locale so new locales can be
created as `Published` or `Draft`
- Returns each admin locale with a `draft` flag so the locale UI can
reflect the public visibility state
## Validation
- Seed a portal with multiple locales, draft one locale, and confirm the
public portal switcher hides it while `/hc/:slug/:locale` still loads
directly
- In the admin dashboard, confirm drafted locales still appear in the
locale list and remain selectable for articles and categories
- Create a new locale with `Draft` status and confirm it stays out of
the public switcher until published
- Move an existing locale back and forth between `Published` and `Draft`
and confirm the public switcher updates accordingly

# Pull Request Template
## Description
The Help Center sitemap endpoint (`/hc/:portal_slug/sitemap.xml`)
previously rendered a `<sitemapindex>` element while embedding article
URLs directly, which does not align with the sitemap specification.
This change fixes the structure by:
- Replacing `<sitemapindex>` with `<urlset>`
- Adding the required sitemap XML namespace
- Rendering each published article as a `<url>` entry with `<loc>` and
`<lastmod>`
This ensures the endpoint outputs a valid, self-contained sitemap
document.
Fixes#13334
## Type of change
