Previously, we assumed that num_before or num_after would be always be non-zero
after adjustment for the anchor. However, we don't adjust num_before or
num_after when a narrow is specified.

Behind a feature flag you can now do searches like this:
-pm-with:othello@example.com is:private
The "-" in front of "pm-with" tells us to exclude messages
with Othello from our search. We support "-" in front of
all operators, although the behavior for "-search:" and
and "-near:" doesn't really change in this commit.
Note that the filtering out of "negated" predicates only
happens on the client side in this commit. On the server
side we ignore negated predicates and send back a superset
of the results.

This commit doesn't change any functionality, and it is
designed to make diffs for upcoming changes related to
negated conditions a bit easier to read. This diff
looks a bit noiser than it really is due to some
reindentation of continuation lines.

The narrow_parameter convert now converts tuples of
(operator, operand) into dictionaries so that downstream
functions/classes deal in dictionaries. This
affects get_old_messages_backend, messages_in_narrow_backend,
and NarrowBuilder.

This implementation is somewhat hackish in large part because I think
we're going to be wanting to redo the get_old_messages API somewhat
soon, and this may naturally become a lot cleaner as a result, but
this isn't a lot of code and fixes#2235 part (A) and substantially
mitigates #1510.

Previously we only disabled it for 'is:starred'. This caused a backtrace when
someone searched for, say 'stream:test is:mentioned', because we weren't joining
on zerver_usermessage, which meant the flag wasn't available to filter on.

The normal code will now generate SQL that is basically identically to the raw
SQL we were using before.

This commit also includes a few changes in the way we do some queries that
should speed searches up:
* Messages before and after the anchor are fetched in a single query by doing a
UNION ALL on the server. This incurs the cost of an extra sort because UNION
ALL does not guarantee the order that the results are appended, but it saves a
server round-trip.
* Searches involving flags now use a straight froward WHERE clause, which is
much faster than the one that django-bitfield generates (due to limitations of
the Django ORM)

This requires the tsearch_extras Postgres extension. To install the extension,
first install postgresql-9.1-tsearch-extras on both postgres-primary and
postgres-secondary (this would normally be done in a puppet apply, but there are
currently some changes that can't be applied on Postgres machines). Then run
the following as the postgres user on postgres-primary:
$ psql -d zulip -c 'CREATE EXTENSION tsearch_extras SCHEMA zulip;'
In dev environments, you must also run:
$ psql -d zulip_test_template -c 'CREATE EXTENSION tsearch_extras SCHEMA zulip;'

NarrowBuilder.by_stream and NarrowBuilder.by_topic for mit users uses a
regex to search by stream and topic. Python's re.escape escapes unicode
in a format that postgres can not parse. We escape unicode as '\uXXXX'
for postgres.
