This commit prefixes stream names in urls with stream ids,
so that the urls don't break when we rename streams.
strean name: foo bar.com%
before: #narrow/stream/foo.20bar.2Ecom.25
after: #narrow/stream/20-foo-bar.2Ecom.25
For new realms, everything is simple under the new scheme, since
we just parse out the stream id every time to figure out where
to narrow.
For old realms, any old URLs will still work under the new scheme,
assuming the stream hasn't been renamed (and of course old urls
wouldn't have survived stream renaming in the first place). The one
exception is the hopefully rare case of a stream name starting with
something like "99-" and colliding with another stream whose id is 99.
The way that we enocde the stream name portion of the URL is kind
of unimportant now, since we really only look at the stream id, but
we still want a safe encoding of the name that is mostly human
readable, so we now convert spaces to dashes in the stream name. Also,
we try to ensure more code on both sides (frontend and backend) calls
common functions to do the encoding.
Fixes#4713
Previously, this accessed realm.uri via trying to use
zulip_default_context. That doesn't make any sense, because
zulip_default_context expects an HttpRequest object, and those are
nowhere in sight in the code path. We do, however, have the outgoing
webhook bot user involved in the event, and that's the object to
access realm.uri from here.
This fixes some error message strings and skips converting request_data
into json. From now, conversion would be the responsibility of interface.
Also, base_url is now not passed into event structure.
