This saves something like 15ms on our 1000 message get_old_messages
queries, and will save even more when we start sending JSON dumps into
our memcached system.
We need to install python-ujson on servers and dev instances before
pushing this to prod.

I noticed in our server logs that some users were sending
update_onboarding_steps requests to the server every time they sent a
message -- because they hadn't finished the onboarding process.

We had a few bugs where we were using a raw Django database query to
get a UserProfile object. This might seem OK, but going through
memcached is more efficient, and also guarantees that we get back the
.select_related() version of the object, so that if we later access
related fields like user_profile.realm.domain, we don't end up doing a
second database query as well.
Fixing these should in practice save a substantial number of database
queries on handling update_status_list requests, which happen very
often and access user_profile.realm.domain.

Instead of calling test(result), we emulate the behavior of
calling SimpleTestCase.__call__, minus the results protocol.

The refactoring to use the cache_get() method incorrectly didn't
remove the addition of KEY_PREFIX inside cache_with_key. The result
was that the KEY_PREFIX was being added twice, once by cache_with_key
and again inside cache_get.
This had the impact of causing pointer saves to not take effect,
because our attempts to update the memcached cache when we save the
UserProfile object were using the correct cache key, but the actual
code reading values out of the caceh wasn't.

The test_emoji test makes sure that we build the correct image
tag for all of our emojis. It's the same underlying algorithm
for all 800+ images, so we now test it in O(1) times instead
of O(N) time. Randomly sampling the emojis makes the tests
slightly non-determinisitic in a theoretical sense, but not in
a practical sense.

(We don't need the fixtures code once we override Django's
run_suite() method not to clobber our test database, since
all our tests use the same data anyway, and since Django
runs all the tests in a transaction and rolls back their
changes.)

In tools/test-backend, we build the test database before calling

clean.

We use a simplified version of run_suite in our subclass of
DjangoTestSuiteRunner so that we can have more control over failing
fast and indicating progress. This change also speeds up the tests
by taking roughly 200 lines unittest/Django code out of the picture.
(We basically reinvent a simpler TextTestRunner and TextTestResult.)

Otherwise code paths that use those keys, like get_old_messages, will
incorrectly use the prefix-included keys.
This bug in our KEY_PREFIX system results in our memcached caching for
get_old_messages always missing.

If you click on "Streams" from the gear menu, we want to focus the
textbox to create a new stream. But if the Streams page is brought up
programmatically (e.g. to jump to a specific stream's settings), this
commit makes it not focus the textbox.

The sidebar link now uses a one-time event handler for a custom event,
subs_page_loaded.zephyr. If the streams page is already open, we can't
rely on the event so we expand the stream in question immediately.
