Now that we can use our servers' DNS names internally, using
verify-full gives us a little bit of extra security.

This will automatically fix bugs such as one in which
internal_send_message didn't properly strip() the subject argument
before sending a message.
We change the recipient_type argument to internal_send_message to take
the recipient type name (e.g. 'stream') both to better fit the API and
also because the previous code incorrectly handled huddles.

This is preparatory for using this new arguments checking function in
internal_send_message as well.

This is often useful when working on a local development system and so
seems worth putting in the code, but is so verbose that it probably
doesn't make sense to have on by default in development.

This cache should save 2 database queries whenever we send a private
message. However, previously it was per-process (which meant it was
mostly useless) and also buggy (it never stored anything in the cache,
so that it was completely useless). Switching this to our standard
memcached setup will address both problems.

This fixes a nondeterministic test failure for me.
The first message sent in the test suite appears to get dropped. I don't know
why this is, and I'm pretty sure it was an existing bug. This message used to
be the one disabling the tutorial, which might explain why that didn't always
work.
Regardless, this commit at least makes the test suite usable, and we can work
on fixing that bug later.

Previously we only used these caches for Tornado requests, because we
were not updating memcached when e.g. the user's pointer changed, and
so functions like update_pointer would not work correctly.
Now that we are updated memcached when the User and UserProfile
objects change, we can use these for all requests.
This saves 2 database queries on every Django request to the server.

This was biting us before when the user would leave a narrow before a
get_old_messages call associated with it finished. Specifically,
search.maybe_highlight_message() would assume a message was in the
DOM when it wasn't any more.
We also have to hide the 'loading more messages' indicator when
reseting the 'load more' status because otherwise it wouldn't get
hidden like normal in the load_old_messages() continuation, causing a
load_more_messages() not to fire when re-entering a narrow.

This should substantially decrease the amount of server load generated
by the userpresence system.
I tested that this indeed was indeed saving one query on
/json/update_active_status requests on my laptop with 2 users from the
humbughq.com realm logged in.

This cache filling code takes about 5 seconds to run, which means it
will finish before Tornado starts reading from this cache, but if that
were to change, it would be much better to have made at least some
progress.

Previously we were calling select_related() on Message.client, which
doesn't exist. It seems kinda poor that this doesn't raise an
exception.
I believe this issue was causing us to do very large numbers of
database queries during get_updates calls during server restarts.

Previously, AdminEmailHandler would crash if the record did not
contain any exception information (e.g. because it came from
logging.error()).
(imported from commit 868ec68f3a57eddbb2c851ecf9894e5eddf21e4c)
Previously when we logged errors using logging.error() but didn't
throw an exception, we would send these totally useless error
humbugs/emails that look like this:
Error generated by Anonymous user (not logged in)
No stack trace available
This change makes those messages include the actual text passed to
logging.error(), which is substantially more useful.

But discard any changes the Django response middleware may have made
to anything other than the content.
This allows us to, for example, output our nice database query logging
for get_updates requests.

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