The refactor in 12509515ae had a subtle
bug, which is that we switched from accessing the message list "this"
(aka the message list being rerendered) to current_msg_list. This
meant that when the narrowed_msg_list was in view and code needed to
modify home_msg_list, we accessed the wrong `selected_row` to preserve
the scroll position of (namely, the one in current_msg_list, not the
one in home_msg_list).
Fix this, by moving the function to be a property of the
message_list_view object, which makes more sense structurally, anyway.
We may, in the future, want to do a similar migration for more of
message_viewport.js.
Fixes#8854.
This is an issue where in jQuery v3 the result of outerHeight on a node
that doesn’t exist is now “undefined” rather than “null”, which means
it will no longer cast to a Number but rather NaN. For this, we create
the safeOuterHeight and safeOuterWidth functions to safely return a
result (or 0).
This is a better solution than manually going to each instance and
ORing it with 0 for type safety.

This fixes the mobile web experience for Chrome on iOS.
Apparently, Chrome-on-iOS silently has a `viewport` module that
overrides and user-defined module by that name, causing all of our
code that accesses the viewport module to not work on that platform.
We fix this by renaming it.
