A key part of this is the new helper, get_user_by_delivery_email. Its
verbose name is important for clarity; it should help avoid blind
copy-pasting of get_user (which we'll also want to rename).
Unfortunately, it requires detailed understanding of the context to
figure out which one to use; each is used in about half of call sites.
Another important note is that this PR doesn't migrate get_user calls
in the tests except where not doing so would cause the tests to fail.
This probably deserves a follow-up refactor to avoid bugs here.
Cleaned up add_user_list_args(). The "help" and
"all_users_help" have all default values. As noted in
an earlier commit, "all_users_help" is always passed in,
so we can get rid of "all_users_arg". We keep the default
for "all_users_help" so we don't have to change variable order
in function definition.
We remove an unecessary "required" paramter from this function
because as seen in the get_users() function right below, you have
to pass either -u/--users or -a/--all-users, meaning there should
never be a reason to require --users.
The Realm.DoesNotExist exception will never be raised if we pass a
string_id as in that case zerver.models.get_realm function would be
used for fetching. realm.zerver.models.get_realm uses filter query
so the exception will not be raised even if there are no realm which
matches the query.
Tests added by tabbott.
This new library is intended to make it easy for management commands
to access a realm or a user in a realm without having to duplicate any
of the annoying parsing/extraction code.
