The policy here is essentially:
* Pages on the central server (documentation, etc.) are server_uri.
* Pages associated with a user's realm server (anything logged-in, plus
things like their login page) are realm_uri.
Changes relative path to an absolute path (that doesn't contain the
subdomain) for various links to
/create_realm, /api, /apps, /integrations, /hello, /terms, and the logged
out / (the Zulip in the upper left corner of portico)
I typically left links internal to the relevant pages (e.g. a link from
integrations.html to a subpage of integrations/) as relative links, and
changed external links from within the app to the absolute path (e.g. the
link to integrations from the gear menu).
This results in a substantial performance improvement for all of
Zulip's backend templates.
Changes in templates:
- Change `block.super` to `super()`.
- Remove `load` tag because Jinja2 doesn't support it.
- Use `minified_js()|safe` instead of `{% minified_js %}`.
- Use `compressed_css()|safe` instead of `{% compressed_css %}`.
- `forloop.first` -> `loop.first`.
- Use `{{ csrf_input }}` instead of `{% csrf_token %}`.
- Use `{# ... #}` instead of `{% comment %}`.
- Use `url()` instead of `{% url %}`.
- Use `_()` instead of `{% trans %}` because in Jinja `trans` is a block tag.
- Use `{% trans %}` instead of `{% blocktrans %}`.
- Use `{% raw %}` instead of `{% verbatim %}`.
Changes in tools:
- Check for `trans` block in `check-templates` instead of `blocktrans`
Changes in backend:
- Create custom `render_to_response` function which takes `request` objects
instead of `RequestContext` object. There are two reasons to do this:
1. `RequestContext` is not compatible with Jinja2
2. `RequestContext` in `render_to_response` is deprecated.
- Add Jinja2 related support files in zproject/jinja2 directory. It
includes a custom backend and a template renderer, compressors for js
and css and Jinja2 environment handler.
- Enable `slugify` and `pluralize` filters in Jinja2 environment.
Fixes#620.
In order to enable internationalization support in Zulip, and to use
Django internationalization tools, all strings in Zulip frontend needs
to be marked for translation.
The problem here is that some error-related templates render without
the context managers that we specify, and so we want the handling of
"the context was not set" to default to the enterprise case (because
the enterprise version will work basically fine on !enterprise, but
the opposite is not true because the enterprise distribution doesn't
even have the templates for certain !enterprise pages that may be
linked to).

This needs to be deployed to both staging and prod at the same
off-peak time (and the schema migration run).
At the time it is deployed, we need to make a few changes directly in
the database:
(1) UPDATE django_content_type set app_label='zerver' where app_label='zephyr';
(2) UPDATE south_migrationhistory set app_name='zerver' where app_name='zephyr';
