Since the main stats index loads this JavaScript using
`"data-turbolinks-track" => "reload"`, going from the stats index to a
section that doesn't include this JavaScript did the strange effect
Turbolinks does in these situations: it first loaded the page using an
AJAX request and, after getting the contents of the page, it reloaded it
in order to apply the changes in the included JavaScript.
This behavior was a bit confusing, particularly when browsing to a
section of the admin stats, clicking the browser's back button to go
back to the stats index, the going to another section, ...
One of the admin stats tests was failing sometimes with this message:
```
1) Stats Budget investments Supporting phase Number of users and
supports in investment projects
Failure/Error: raise ex, cause: cause
Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownError:
unknown error: unhandled inspector error:
{"code":-32000,"message":"Node with given id does not belong to the document"}
(Session info: chrome=129.0.6668.89)
```
This was probably caused by the mentioned Turbolinks behavior that loads
the page twice. It's possible that Selenium was somehow checking the
node related to the first request when the second request had finished.
Avoiding that double request solves the issue.
In commit e51e03446, we started using the same code to show stats in the
public area and in the admin area. However, in doing so we introduced a
bug, since stats in the public area are only shown after a certain part
of the process has finished, meaning the stats appearing on the page
never change (in theory), so it's perfectly fine to cache them. However,
in the admin area stats can be accessed while the process is still
ongoing, so caching the stats will lead to the wrong results being
displayed.
We've thought about expiring the cache when new supports or ballot lines
are added; however, that means the methods calculating the stats for the
supporting phase would expire when supports are added/removed but the
methods calculating the stats for the voting phase would expire when
ballot lines are added/removed. It gets even more complex because the
`headings` method calculates stats for both the supporting and the
voting phases.
So, since loading stats in the admin section is fast even without the
cache because they only load very basic statistics, we're taking the
simple approach of disabling the cache in this case, so everything works
the same way it did before commit e51e03446.

To get the heading where a user voted, we were relying on the
`balloted_heading_id` field.
Our guess is this was done so the total number of users is the same as
the sum of users who voted on a heading. That is, if 2000 people voted
just on the "All city" heading, 1000 voted just on the "North district"
heading, and 500 people voted on both, instead of showing "3500 people
voted in total, 2500 voted in all city, 1500 voted in north district",
we show something like "3500 people voted in total, 2250 voted in all
city, and 1250 voted in north district".
However, this approach has some disadvantages.
The first disadvantage is, the stats aren't correct. In the case above,
2500 voted on the "All city heading", so the statistics for this heading
don't show reality.
The second one is we weren't considering the last heading where users
voted inside the budget being displayed, but the last heading where
users voted, period. That means that, if all the people above voted on a
later budget, the stats for the budget above would become "3500 people
voted in total, 0 voted in all city, and 0 voted in north district".
That also means we were including headings from previous budgets in the
statistics for more recent budgets when people hadn't voted on the
recent ones.
So we're removing the `balloted_heading_id` since its data is lost once
people vote on a new budget. And, in order to show the right stats and
simplify the code, we're no longer trying to add votes just to one
heading when users vote on several headings.

We're also moving the tests, but we're keeping one system test in order
to test the controller and the navigation to get to this page.
Note we're slightly changing the order of the methods in the component;
the order of the instance variables was `user_`, `vote_`, `vote_`,
`user_`, which was hard to follow.
