We were previously having an issue where the tutorial could
be pre-empted if you got a few messages while you were first
logging in.
I have some reservations about this being slightly fragile, and a
better approach might be to just have a bit that we use to determine
whether or not you've already seen a tutorial. (Or potentially that
checks whether or not you've ever sent a message.)

When narrowing, we use the selected id in the home view as the anchor,
and if the user is new and hasn't selected any messages yet (or moved
the pointer since first using humbug), their home view selected message
will be -1. Rather than failing to get_old_messages for any narrows starting
from that point, return all matching messages.

I find that I never use it, and I don't totally like our
experience in the app to be different from our users'.
Admittedly, this is a small way in which that's the case :)
Finally, since we do usability studies in @humbughq.com,
the link appears there too, and I'd like it not to.

Prior to this change, any stream message sent by internal_send_message
could only be in the realm of the sender.
This was a problem most notably for... the tutorial bot, with the
hilarious consequence that the tutorial worked fine in humbughq.com,
but failed to start anywhere else.

But only allow them to send to tutorial-<<your username>>.
The idea being that this helps reduce potential abuse from this JSON
call. (Because otherwise, anyone could call into this endpoint and
have the tutorial bot send random messages to random peoples's
streams.)

The idea here is: part of the onboarding tutorial is going to
be you talking to the tutorial bot and it talking to you, from
our Javascript.
The reason it's driven by Javascript is that then in principle we can
do nice stuff like making popovers appear in places to point things
out to you, whereas if we were to do it strictly server-side, doing so
would be a lot harder.
The downside to doing it in Javascript is that you don't get any of
the Markdown rendering, since that happens on the server. So instead
we add this call where you give it a message, and it responds by
having the tutorial bot send you that message.
I don't think there are any security concerns here because
(1) The bot only messages you -- so you can't use it to make someone
else think that the system is telling them to do something
(2) If there were an issue associated with having the server parse
arbitrary Markdown, you could just trigger the issue by sending
a message yourself.

The purpose of the validator is to ensure the user isn't active, so
let's correctly test for that here.
(imported from commit 772ddb901098f78750efab274405a10f36c49232)
Previously we checked and bailed when there was a user registered with
an email address, regardless of active status.
This meant that MIT users who had inactive accounts autocreated had
issues where they would be confusingly told they were signed up even
though they had never taken any action on our site directly.
Now we instead check whether there are any current *active* user
accounts with that email address, and proceed with generating an
activation link if the user lacks a corresponding active account.
Security implications of this commit come into play if we start
implementing removing users ability to sign in as deactivation. Since we
lack a user removal story here, this isn't terribly concerning yet and
we'll revist this code when we decide to add such functionality in the
future.
This resolves trac #581 and #631.

On my laptop, this cuts search time from several seconds down to
a few hundred milliseconds.
If we want even more speed, we could store the ts_vector as a column
on the message database. The Postgres documentation says this will
make "searches [...] faster, since it will not be necessary to redo
the to_tsvector calls to verify index matches." Going this route
requires creating a trigger to automatically insert the appropriate
column when new rows are inserted.
Note that the full text index must be fully created before this
commit is deployed. Full text search without an index is actually
significantly slower than using the LIKE operator.

Inspection of the postgres slow queries log showed that the "narrow to
personals with a particular user" database queries were taking a long
time to run (0.5s+). Further investigation determined that the OR
gate construction used here was causing the entire zephyr_message
table to be scanned; primarily I think because we were using the
implicit constraint that the logged in user had received messages.
This change makes that query explicit (improving performance), while
cleaning up the code to avoid an unnecessary query and read a little
more clearly.
After this change, the relevant database query takes 10s of milliseconds.

This code was consuming up to 50-100ms per client recipient of a

mobile devices, it would take several seconds to run, during which
time Tornado would be completely blocked.
In the future, we can re-fix #174 using a cache of recently delivered
messages, so that this code block doesn't go to the database and thus
can run instantaneously.
