If get_updates requests a message ID that is too old, Tornado will
return a 400, and currently the only way to start caring about newer
message IDs is to reload.

If you create a spinner in a hidden element and then show the
element, the spinner is placed differently than if you had created
the spinner while the element was visible. This commit makes it so
that we never create spinners while their parent is hidden.

It's possible for selected_message_id to not exist in zhome. For
instance, when you open the page to a narrowed URL, there is a race
between loading the narrowed messages and loading all your
messages. If the narrowed message request completes first, it will
update selected_message_id to your initial_pointer if the latter
happens to be among the narrowed messages. Even if it is not, you can
select a message by clicking on it before the zhome request finishes.
Then the old code would never add that selected_message_id to the
zhome table, so it wouldn't show up in the Home view or if you
re-narrowed.
I'm pretty sure there are still cases where the selected_message_id
might be outside the range of messages in zhome, in which case adding
to zhome might put old messages at the bottom. I observed this twice
on staging but was unable to reproduce it consistently.

Putting update_floating_recipient_bar in the old location caused it to
be called on every single keypress, which is unnecessarily
expensive. Instead, just call it once when we think we might actually
need it: after initiating a narrow.

There's this very edge-case issue which is: if you go to the top of
the page and narrow to something other than the top message, the
floating subject bar does not update.
Why? Well, the way that the narrowing code works is that it sets up
narrowing and then calls
select_message_by_id(target_id, {then_scroll: true});
so that our selected message is in the view.
This in turn calls select_message, which calls recenter_view as
appropriate. This usually causes a scroll action, which in turn causes
the floating recipient bar to be updated.
But when we're at the top of the page, recenter_view doesn't need
to scroll at all! So the bar remains un-updated. Here we explicitly
update it to guard against that case.
This fixes Trac #651.

And change the color to a more thematically appropriate blue.
The shadow pointer is sort of confusing; we should really provide some
different sort of indication that your pointer is potentially moving
on narrow-and-unnarrow. (I think my fade-in-fade-out later in this
commit series is a not-bad first crack at this.)

Alternatively the server could return a successful result with an empty list of
messages. But I prefer the solution in this commit, because it would allow us
in the future to warn the user about the problem. It does allow users to
determine if a given stream exists, but we haven't tried to hide that
information so far.

We were submitting a 'last' value of -1 to the server at startup,
which is invalid but normally ended up being OK because the user
usually had no messages whatsoever or had last be updated via
get_old_messages before the get_updates call went through.

This was causing glitching where if you narrow so that zfilt has only
one message, and add messages on top (e.g. via get_old_messages), and
then add messages on bottom (e.g. by receiving one), we end up with
the bookend row missing. One can make this happen with narrowing,
but, this situation happens every time with time travelling.

The main problem with this code is that the error message doesn't go
away until you reload. To fix this, we need to add a noblock option
on get_updates.
