If the user scrolls super fast, our scroll handler might not catch
the user passing by some messages.

After this commit, we built an API tarball and sent it to
CUSTOMER4, and then promptly reverted the commit so that
we could continue as we had been before.

This will mainly be useful in the event system branch, where we want
to actually send a response from a file other than tornadoviews.py.

restart-server has been relatively slow recently, and it'd be nice to
know what it is spending its time doing when it hangs for a few
seconds.

Since we flush memcached when we do a server restart, the flurry of
get_updates requests that fly in afterwards are all cache misses for
getting the User/UserProfile objects, so Tornado ends up spending
around 70ms per get_updates request rather than the usual 1-2ms.
So this should substantially improve our Tornado performance around
server restarts.

Our previous code could in theory end up clearing the caches it had
just filled, if Tornado's cache filling work happened to be faster
than the memcached flush.

We create a circular reference between handler functions and our
wrappers for them so that we can pass the wrapper to jQuery.off when
users pass the original handler to us. This reference-counting
system can't break all the circular references we create because
users can unbind event handlers without explicitly naming the
handlers they want to remove (they can remove all bindings on an
element, for example). For now, we hope that this memory leak isn't
too bad.
(imported from commit 9615b5761b4b09ca7ca52c0d847e9b83330373fa)
Previously, we couldn't actually unbind some event handlers. The
problem was that when a user called $.off(events, handler), the
passed handler wouldn't match any that were actually bound because
the handler that was actually bound was our wrapper.
This bug specifically caused the handlers for our idle timers to
never be unbound, effectively never cancelling them.

We will need this for removing event handlers. This will
unfortunately create a memory leak, but we'll partially deal with
that later.

Sometimes Dropbox shares with /s/ and sometimes with /sh/,
and I'm not sure which controls it, but we should deal with both.

Previously, if for some reason pointer updates were not returning from
the server, the client would resend its request every second, rather
than waiting for the previous request to fail before sending a new
one.

It's closer to a presence query than an update, and more importantly
this moves this out of Tornado -- previously Tornado was spending at
least 3ms per recipient on messages sent to the MIT realm fetching all
this data to return back to users. This should save around 100ms per
message sent to a popular stream the MIT realm -- but more
importantly, each such event is 100ms during which Tornado is not
processing other messages.

This is required because our migration is going to go in two phases.
When we do the database migration (on pushing to master), we update
all messages at that point. But prod doesn't know about the new
flags field, so any new messages sent on prod will not have the
read bit set.
When we push to prod, we want to re-run the bit of the migration script
that automatically sets read flags on messages older than the users's
pointer.

We also needed this when rerendering on append, so moving it into
_maybe_rerender allows the two places to share the code.

It's pretty confusing if this doesn't change. In some other world we
could update the fade, but since we're currently only fading on reply,
I think it would be weird to update the fade when you're picking a new
recipient.
(imported from commit 8f77419d443d578068b57f847354ac6da7632ee2)
Previously, we compared the recipients of messages to the message that
you triggered the reply off of -- even if you did a reply-to-sender.
This commit changes the code to instead track what you faded by,
rather than just the message you faded on.
Fixes#1037.
