Looking at the historical data, fewer than 50% of active users have
completed the checklist, which means that it is just persistent
clutter. We also have other better ways of encouraging people to send
traffic and get the apps now.
This commit removes both the frontend UI and backend work but leaves
the db row for now for the historical data.

This has a small bug where we don't actually filter the message out of
the home view; fixing that requires adding an index on the "flags"
field of UserMessage.

The gather_subscriptions_helper() does a separate query to
get emails from user_ids, and it returns an email_dict to its
caller.
This may seem like a step backward, since gather_subscriptions()
now needs to do an additional query, but there is some benefit
in passing fewer redundant emails over the wire from the DB.
The real payoff, though, will come in subsequent commits, where
we will reduce the amount of data going over the wire to the browser,
which will benefit users with slow connections.

The current version should only be used for testing; for example,

Steve Howell: Case 2, how the code works now:

Steve Howell: In both trials, we set it up so that only 382 of 9382 rows need to be updated. The first trial runs about 63x as fast. The second trial, if my theory is correct, is doing 24x as many writes as it needs. Both trials are reading all 9382 rows.
Steve Howell: The expense of the update statement seems to be proportional to the number of rows you "update", not the number of rows that you actually change.
Steve Howell: For now I created #1869.
Zev Benjamin: That sounds like a reasonable explanation. The disk IO can be expensive

We now bulk-fetch subscription information once from the database
and use it throughout bulk_add_subscriptions in order to avoid
hitting the db O(streams) times.
On my machine this shaved the accounts_register API call from making
66 queries to making 37 queries.

When we send a message, we send some presence information to Tornado
to help it figure out how to generate emails for idle recipients of
a message. This change limits the presence info to being the
intersection of present users and recipients of the message. It is
just an internal optimization to avoid queueing up unneeded data.
The history behind this feature is that I implemented it a while
back, but I think I made a rebase mistake that sent all the presence
data over the wire, despite having code to filter on recipients.
It was mostly harmless, just leading to some inefficiency which is
now fixed.

For a 4-person stream, we were hitting the DB 8 times, and 4 of
those queries were to lazily get user.email for the 4 recipients
due to upstream code using only(). I added user_profile__email
to the only() call.
I believe this regression started 9/18, and after pushing this
to prod, we would should look at this graph:

Instead just rely on the 2-minute delay in the management command to

If you expand subscribers on your settings page, you will now see
a query like this in your postgres logs:
SELECT "zerver_userprofile"."email"
FROM "zerver_subscription" INNER JOIN "zerver_recipient" ON ("zerver_subscription"."recipient_id" = "zerver_recipient"."id") INNER JOIN "zerver_userprofile" ON ("zerver_subscription"."user_profile_id" = "zerver_userprofile"."id") WHERE ("zerver_recipient"."type" = 2 AND "zerver_subscription"."active" = true AND "zerver_recipient"."type_id" = 40 AND "zerver_userprofile"."is_active" = true )
The join's still complicated, but the list of fields is one instead of 40+.
(imported from commit 48de1f888193a4d23fcea52d0b633d134e4a3ff7)
get_subscribers_backend() now calls the new get_subscriber_emails()
function, which just queries the email field:
"zerver_userprofile"."email"
...instead of querying about 40 fields that it never uses.
I was able to verify the query slimming by watching my postgres server log.
Also, you can verify that the ORM does roughly 16x less work using values():
>>> def f(): return [sub.user_profile.email for sub in list(Subscription.objects.all().select_related())]
...
>>> def g(): return [row['user_profile__email'] for row in list(Subscription.objects.all().values('user_profile__email'))]
...
>>> def timeit(func): t = time.time(); func(); return time.time() - t
...
>>> timeit(f)
0.045198917388916016
>>> timeit(g)
0.002752065658569336

The get_status_dict_by_realm helper gets called whenever our
realm user_presences cache expires, and it used to query these fields:
"zerver_userpresence"."id", "zerver_userpresence"."user_profile_id", "zerver_userpresence"."client_id", "zerver_userpresence"."timestamp", "zerver_userpresence"."status", "zerver_userprofile"."id", "zerver_userprofile"."password", "zerver_userprofile"."last_login", "zerver_userprofile"."is_superuser", "zerver_userprofile"."email", "zerver_userprofile"."is_staff", "zerver_userprofile"."is_active", "zerver_userprofile"."is_bot", "zerver_userprofile"."date_joined", "zerver_userprofile"."bot_owner_id", "zerver_userprofile"."full_name", "zerver_userprofile"."short_name", "zerver_userprofile"."pointer", "zerver_userprofile"."last_pointer_updater", "zerver_userprofile"."realm_id", "zerver_userprofile"."api_key", "zerver_userprofile"."enable_desktop_notifications", "zerver_userprofile"."enable_sounds", "zerver_userprofile"."enter_sends", "zerver_userprofile"."enable_offline_email_notifications", "zerver_userprofile"."last_reminder", "zerver_userprofile"."rate_limits", "zerver_userprofile"."avatar_source", "zerver_userprofile"."tutorial_status", "zerver_userprofile"."onboarding_steps", "zerver_userprofile"."invites_granted", "zerver_userprofile"."invites_used", "zerver_userprofile"."alert_words", "zerver_userprofile"."muted_topics", "zerver_client"."id", "zerver_client"."name"
Now it queries just the fields it needs:
"zerver_client"."name", "zerver_userpresence"."status", "zerver_userpresence"."timestamp", "zerver_userprofile"."email" FROM "zerver_userpresence"
Also, get_status_dict_by_realm is now namespaced under UserPresence as a static method.

These engagement data will be useful both for making pretty graphs of
how addicted our users are as well as for allowing us to check whether
a new deployment is actually using the product or not.
This measures "number of minutes during which each user had checked
the app within the previous 15 minutes". It should correctly not
count server-initiated reloads.
It's possible that we should use something less aggressive than
mousemove; I'm a little torn on that because you really can check the
app for new messages without doing anything active.
This is somewhat tested but there are a few outstanding issues:
* Mobile apps don't report these data. It should be as easy as having
them send in update_active_status queries with new_user_input=true.
* The semantics of this should be better documented (e.g. the
management script should print out the spec above)x.
