This commit adds code to handle guests separately for group
based settings, where guest will only have permission if
that particular setting can be set to "role:everyone" group
even if the guest user is part of the group which is used
for that setting. This is to make sure that guests do not
get permissions for actions that we generally do not want
guests to have.
Currently the guests do not have permission for most of them
except for "Who can delete any message", where guest could
delete a message if the setting was set to a user defined
group with guest being its member. But this commit still
update the code to use the new function for all the settings
as we want to have a consistent pattern of how to check whether
a user has permission for group-based settings.
This commit renames "View message source" to "View original message".
The meaning of "original" in this context is very similar to what
source/source code means in software jargon, while being easier to
understand and translate for a non-tech savvy user.
It doesn't make sense for us to track a separate current filter when
it should just the be filter of current message list if there is one.
This will reduce possible confusion in the codebase where filter
returned by narrow_state is different from message_lists.current.
For spectators, the chunk of page_params that originates from
do_events_register isn’t assigned until ui_init.js. That means the
TypeScript type of page_params is mostly a lie during module load
time: reading a parameter too early silently results in undefined
rather than the declared type, with unpredictable results later on.
We want to make such an early read into an immediate runtime error,
for both users and spectators consistently, and pave the way for
runtime validation of the page_params type. As a second step, split
out the subset of fields that pertain to the entire realm.

All message view has `in-home` filter and is not empty.
If there are no terms provided, we set filter to display
all messages (including muted streams/topics).
We make it mandatory to provide terms to Filter.
