urls: Add a new endpoint for hotspot and deprecate the old one.

This commit adds a new endpoint 'users/me/onboarding_steps'
deprecating the older 'users/me/hotspots' to mark hotspot as read.

We also renamed the view `mark_hotspot_as_read` to
`mark_onboarding_step_as_read`.

Reason: Our plan is to make this endpoint flexible to support
other types of UI elements not just restricted to hotspots.

+* `POST /users/me/onboarding_steps`: Added a new endpoint that
+  deprecates the `/users/me/hotspots` endpoint. Added support for
+  displaying one-time notices in addition to existing hotspots.
+  This is now used as a common endpoint to mark both types of
+  onboarding steps, i.e., 'hotspot' and 'one_time_notice'.
+  There is no compatibility support for `/users/me/hotspots` as
+  no client other than web app has this feature currently.
