This is a prefactoring to eventually eliminate the home_unread_messages
global variable. More commits to follow.
In order to set up process_loaded_for_unread() not to modify
global variable to get its job done, we want to pull it out of
add_messages(), so that add_messages() doesn't have to pass back
state to the 9 different places in the codebase where it's called.
There are only 2 places where process_loaded_for_unread() get
called after this commit.
In order to facilitate pulling up process_loaded_for_unread(), I
made it so that the contract for add_messages() was to accept
already-hydrated messages. This way I could hydrate the messages
before calling process_loaded_for_unread() without have to
worry about double-caching them in add_messages. This will
slightly improve performance, but it was mostly done for code
clarity.

The default is 50, which we believe was causing too much CPU

The String.localeCompare function is really slow, at least partially
because it creates a locale-aware collator object each time. So now,
when we can, we create and cache a locale-aware collator object.
However, this is not supported on most browsers, so we fall back to a
non-locale-aware comparison. This is not ideal, but for now we are
mostly working with English-speaking customers.

(2) Restart all the programs running in screen sessions.
(3) Deploy the nginx changes and restart nginx.

This is a V1 of this feature. For now, the only way to expand is by narrowing
to the stream---future revisions may add a manual toggle if it is found to be
useful.
Additionally, showing per-subject unread counts will be coming in a future revision
as well.

Django's South migrations support for setting up a new database
doesn't properly handle AUTH_USER_MODEL changing over time. Fix this

default value.

We accidentally lost this when we did the User/UserProfile merge (this
commit also deletes the old code to add the auth_user index in
do-destroy-rebuild-database).
This below is mostly just notes for future reference, but when
deploying this change to staging, we should consider running the
following instead of using the migration directly:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX CONCURRENTLY zephyr_userprofile_email_uniq ON zephyr_userprofile(email);
ALTER TABLE zephyr_userprofile ADD CONSTRAINT zephyr_userprofile_email_uniq UNIQUE USING INDEX zephyr_userprofile_email_uniq;
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY zephyr_userprofile_email ON zephyr_userprofile(email);
But I think it might be the case that it's fine to just run it
directly, since the ALTER TABLE part seems to hang if there's an open
transaction working on a UserProfile object anyway.

This is only acceptable for dev, but the next commit adds an alternative

There isn't actually a manual deployment step here. However, this commit won't

We were previously having an issue where the tutorial could
be pre-empted if you got a few messages while you were first
logging in.
I have some reservations about this being slightly fragile, and a
better approach might be to just have a bit that we use to determine
whether or not you've already seen a tutorial. (Or potentially that
checks whether or not you've ever sent a message.)

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.)

So here's the reproduction recipe:
(1) Find a narrow that doesn't have any messages since 4 days ago
(2) Directly visit that narrow in your browser (or wait for someone to
do a deploy and thus auto-reload)
(3) Wait until load_old_messages has been called at least once
(4) Un-narrow
(5) Scroll up, and notice that the 400 most recent messages are above
sets of older messages.
The cause is that the code in add_messages assumed that
selected_message_id was within the range of message already in the
home view. This is true in most cases where add_message is being
called, but it is not true in the case that the user was in a narrowed
view containing only very old messages (And thus selected_message_id
would be older than everything in the home view).
We can fix this by tracking persistent_message_id separately and using
that for the relevant test in add_messages.
