Previously we would select the first message in the block. Now, we
only do that if a message that is selected will not be in the
resulting narrowed view. If the selected message will be in the
narrowed view, we select that message once narrowed.

I kind of expect this to work, and hopefully this'll help with
people getting stuck on the "Settings" page in the tutorial.

Most of them are just typos or funny punctuation, but this also adds
the word "above" after "You and Humbug Tutorial Bot" since otherwise
the user might try to click the text in the message body and be
confused.

Right now the MIT realm has pretty bad UI lag with 1,200 messages loaded. We
need to fix the root problem, but this commit at least makes reloading the page
a satisfactory remedy.

Here I have a sketchy but functional framework for dealing with
all of the async stuff that a tutorial requires, and an early
draft of what such a tutorial might look like.
I could probably go and remove the first-run message, but I'll
keep it around for now in the unlikely event that something I
haven't anticipated goes wrong in starting up the tutorial.

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.

At Ksplice we used /usr/bin/python because we shipped dependencies as Debian /
Red Hat packages, which would be installed against the system Python. We were
also very careful to use only Python 2.3 features so that even old system
Python would still work.
None of that is true at Humbug. We expect users to install dependencies
themselves, so it's more likely that the Python in $PATH is correct. On OS X
in particular, it's common to have five broken Python installs and there's no
expectation that /usr/bin/python is the right one.
The files which aren't marked executable are not interesting to run as scripts,
so we just remove the line there. (In general it's common to have libraries
that can also be executed, to run test cases or whatever, but that's not the
case here.)

This fixes the issue where toggling show/hide on a stream in the home
view scrolls the page, because the removing and adding of rows in the
still-visible message table causes the cursor and scroll position to jump

We don't typically have these (see message type, etc.) and removing
them will allow simplifying the code.

This keeps the name to the right of the bullet even if it overflows

Previously we were doing 100 queries for new messages being sent to
the main hacker school channels; they were faster than many similar
instances because they were all done within 1 transaction, but still,
send_message_backend would be spending up to 200ms (and 148 queries)
querying the database with the previous code on prod; this new version
should do a fixed number of database queries per message.

This commit does the actual work of formatting recent dates as weekday
names and updating the format when the date is sufficiently far in the
past.
Also, silence a bogus jslint warning.

This commit just moves time rendering logic to its own file, and does
not make any functionality changes.

That way it is visible more consistently when arrowing through
messages (arrowing causes scroll events).
