Email templates user signature

[skrchnavy]

Added an e-mail signature variable into e-mail templates, which is configurable for each user and from the GUI under My Profile settings (so it is available to everyone, not just admins).
It utilizes the CKEditor.

Limitation: 255 chars might be enough for plain text, but might not be for HTML formatted text - this could be extended but schema update is required.

Example of email signature:

My Name | 0900 200 300 | myWebsite.com
myEmail@gmail.com

this is now targeting a php7 feature branch. It was originally on the php5 master branch. Do I need tor rebase & merge if/when accepting it?

My observations:
1- Indeed, it's been couple of years held behind. It certainly needs a rebase.
2- I concur with Codacy's red flagged issues. However, the project is infected with bad coding habits and free will usage of the global variables.
3- I also concur with Codacy's unnecessary usage of "else" statement.

My recommendation:
1- Since, there has been none enforcing the best coding practice, I'm tempted to push for the implementation of singleton getters in CATSUtility.php, once and for good, to resolve the references to the required global variables. This project needs to get in shape.

I won't hold back the progress by approving this feature. However, we'll have to consider implementing getters for global variables and being more proactive on applying coding best practices.
