We now use a Proxy to wrap zjquery elements, so
that we can detect callers trying to invoke methods
(or access attributes) that do not exist. We try
to give useful error messages in those cases.
The main impact here is that we force lots of tests
to explicitly stub `length`.
Also, we can't do equality checks on zjquery
objects any more due to the proxy object, but the
easy workaround is to compare selectors. (This
is generally an unnecessary technique, anyway.)
The proxy wrapper is fairly straightforward, and
we just have a few special cases for things like
"inspect" that happen when you try to print out
objects.
With perfectScrollbar, we needed to call a function from JavaScript to
enable a scrollbar on a new element, but simplebar has a much simpler
default API one can do by using data-simplebar attributes in the HTML.
So we can delete all the scrollbar creation/deletion code.

Instead of deleting and rebuilding #private-container every time its
contents need to be updated, just replace its contents. This
eliminates some scrollbar flashing.

perfect-scrollbar replaces both the appearance and the behavior of the
scrollbar, and its emulated behavior will never feel native on most
platforms. SimpleBar customizes the appearance while preserving the
native behavior.

The following elements in the top left corner
are major components of our app:
All messages
Private messages
Starred messages
Mentions
We can now find them directly:
$('.top_left_all_messages')
$('.top_left_private_messages')
$('.top_left_starred_messages')
$('.top_left_mentions')
Before this, we had to build up complicated selectors
like below:
exports.get_global_filter_li = function (filter_name) {
var selector = "#global_filters li[data-name='"
+ filter_name + "']";
return $(selector);
};
I don't think any newbie would know to grep for "global_filter",
and I've seen a PR where somebody added specific markup here
to "Private messages" because they couldn't grok the old scheme.
Another thing to note is that we still have a "home-link"
class for "All messages", which overlapped with portico
code that had the same name. (There were some inaccurate
comments in the code relating to the tab bar, but we don't
actually have a way to click to the home view in the tab
bar any more.) I'll eliminate that cruft in another commit.
For this commit the four elements still have the
"global-filter" class, since there's some benefit to being
able to style them all as a group, although we should give
it a nicer name in a subsequent commit.
Most of this PR is basic search/replace, but I did add a
two-line helper: `top_left_corner.update_starred_count`
