GSOC 2022 - Community federation portal

Was: Community federation and gamification

Is now: Facets Knowledge Panel

This project aims to help community users based on areas of interest.

In the long run this will allow contributors in the form of members of different groups to contribute more and easily.

But we pivoted to add knowledge panel to facets as this was the fundamental feature.
