Our overall guideline is the type names for events are singular, and the list of
events of that type are plural. 'subscriptions' was not following this guideline
and (potentially as a result) had a bug where it was impossible for clients to explicitly
subscribe to subscription change events properly.

Chrome was showing a memory leak after many auto-reloads. Emptying the
the collections and removing the event listeners reduces the severity.
Before this change 40 reloads would would grow to about 140MB, now it
stays around 50MB.

Add try/catch blocks to get_updates_success and send a blueslip error on
errors we catch. This will let get_updates_success return successfully
so that the next call to get_updates will start immediately.

Both pointer and last are fields that were removed when we changed the
protocol to use events like a year ago.
This conveniently allows us to stop exporting get_updates_params to
other modules.

Previously, we waited until we'd fully loaded the home view to start
calling get_events, which:
(A) didn't make sense non-message related events
(B) resulted in our throwing "get_updates not started" errors when
users sent a message before the home view was fully loaded.
This commit only fixes problem (B); to fix problem (A) we will need to
change the event capture code to only capture some events.

Note that this makes the event fire after the home view has messages
loaded all the way to current; previously it only waited for the first
batch of messages to load.
