We use `get_by_user_id` instead of directly accessing the global dict, because
when accessing person objects directly from one of the global dicts we
need callers to check for undefined values, this can be fixed by using
`get_by_user_id` method to get person objects because that functions
makes sure to assert that we indeed have a valid user id, so it will
never return undefined values.

This helps reduce the amount of import cycles we have in the compose
code path following the migration to a fancier stream input.
`compose_closed_ui.initialize()` was moved further down in the
initialization order because it relies on the dropdown widget
to be defined.
This is needed for the compose stream dropdown widget,
which is also updated here. Now when a user is subscribed
or unsubscribed from a stream, or a stream is renamed, or
or a stream is deleted, the dropdown widget updates
accordingly. This fixes a regression of this functionality
that happened during the switch to the dropdown.
This lets us simplify the long-ish ‘../../static/js’ paths, and will
remove the need for the ‘zrequire’ wrapper.
