Fixes#22984
Add an `@` icon in unread topics where user is mentioned.
We track a new set of `stream_id:topic` pairs for the unread mentions
so that recent topics instantly knows if a topic is unread and mentioned
or not.
This was added by commit 7f174213ed, and
appears to have been designed for responses that are *successful* but
falsy. Logically, these should not implicitly represent a failure to
be retried if it were.
Note from tabbott: The background is that this idempotent retry loop
was a hacky workaround for a bug we never understood but saw daily in
production. Especially during server restarts / client reloads,
something would result in 200 responses with no data being seen by the
frontend, despite the Django server not having received/processed the
request. Fortunately, this strange failure mode appears to have
stopped happening in late 2019, so we can delete this hack.

When we were preparing the conversion to ES modules in 2019, the
primary obstacle was that the Node tests extensively relied on the
ability to reach into modules and mutate their CommonJS exports in
order to mock things. ES module bindings are not mutable, so in
commit 173c9cee42 we added
babel-plugin-rewire-ts as a kludgy transpilation-based workaround for
this to unblock the conversion.
However, babel-plugin-rewire-ts is slow, buggy, nonstandard,
confusing, and unmaintained. It’s incompatible with running our ES
modules as native ES modules, and prevents us from taking advantage of
modern tools for ES modules. So we want to excise all use of
__Rewire__ (and the disallow_rewire, override_rewire helper functions
that rely on it) from the tests and remove babel-plugin-rewire-ts.
Commits 64abdc199e and
e17ba5260a (#20730) prepared for this by
letting us see where __Rewire__ is being used. Now we go through and
remove most of the uses that are easy to remove without modifying the
production code at all.

Notifies user when messages are not being marked as read through a
banner that lets them mark all messages in the narrow as read. Note
that the banner is only displayed if the user's actions, like
scrolling, would've actually marked the messages as read.
This avoids distracting the user when viewing a thread they've already
read.
tabbott has verified that if new messages come in, the banner will reappear.
Fixes: #18768.
We split recent_topics module into recent_topics_(ui + data + util).
This allows us to reduce cyclical dependencies which were
created due to large list of imports in recent topics. Also, this
refactor on its own makes sense.
We also add a check to see if `message_feed_container` is visible,
since it is possible that recent topics could be visible which
was not a possibility when this logic was written.
This data structure has never been one that we actually render into
the DOM; instead, its role is to support clicking into view that
contain muted streams and topics quickly.
This downgrade makes that situation much more explicit, and is also
useful refactoring to help simpify the upcoming changes in #16746.
