[BUG] Error on create new Public Tickets

[kareem-abdul]

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST?:

• [x] BUG
• [ ] FEATURE

What happened:

• An error occurred in a new fresh Docker installation when "Allow Public Tickets" was enabled.
• When creating a ticket through the /api/v1/public/tickets/create API a 400 Bad Request is received
• The error message in the response is tickets validation failed: status: Path 'status' is required.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

• run a fresh docker installation
• followed the initial setup options for an Admin user
• enabled the Allow Public Tickets options
• followed the ticket creation steps in the /newissue route.
• The page was stuck in a creating issue loading screen
• Upon further inspection, found the Bad request in the network panel.

Anything else we need to know?:

The same issue was raised here #611 which is now closed due to being stale. Looking into the source, the status field in the ticket schema is marked as required https://github.com/polonel/trudesk/blob/ad4c42c3b88c42d90e41b3615f1ee205925ad03e/src/models/ticket.js#L95-L100 and a default status is not being set in the public ticket creation API https://github.com/polonel/trudesk/blob/ad4c42c3b88c42d90e41b3615f1ee205925ad03e/src/controllers/api/v1/tickets.js#L635-L644 which causes the validation error that I'm facing right now

Environment:

• Trudesk Version: latest master commit ad4c42c
• OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release): alpine (from docker)
• Node.JS Version: 16.14-alpine (from docker)
• MongoDB Version: 5.0-focal (from docker)
• Is this hosted on cloud.trudesk.io: no

Going through git blame, I found that status was a number with a default value of 0, and got converted to an object reference, removing the default value. ece5b345
