Use stream id to live-update messages for name changes.

When we change a stream name, we now use the stream id as the
key to find messages we need to live update.  This eliminates
some possible race conditions from two users renaming a stream.

This commit introduces message_live_update.js.

The new call stack is this:

    subs.update_subscription_properties
    subs.update_stream_name
    message_live_update.update_stream_name
    message_list.update_stream_name
