The bug we experienced here was that if you loaded the page in a
narrowed view, and then un-narrowed before the first block of messages
for the home view arrived via load_old_messages, then
narrow.deactivate() would re-select ID -1 in home_msg_list. This ends
up calling recenter_view() on the message, which in turn tries to
access the message with message id -1, which fails.
We do sometimes re-select a message ID in order to recenter the view
properly when we prepend messages to a message list, so we can't make
this always a nop; instead we add a check for id -1 in the
message_selected.zephyr event handler.

This parallels clicking on a stream name, which narrows you to that
stream. This also gives you a discoverable way to narrow to PMs with a
particular person.

This sets up the keys t and b to anchor your pointer to the top
and bottom of the viewport. It empowers keyboard users who
are otherwise at the mercy of Barnowl recentering, but of
course it doesn't affect users who don't want to opt in.

The only known outstanding bug with this is that it doesn't properly
handle the updating of a message's highlighting/presence in a narrowed
view (e.g. in theory, a message should disappear if it is edited such
that its subject doesn't match your narrow or it no longer matches
your search). I think I'll just open a trac ticket about that once
this is merged, since it's a little hairy to deal with and kinda a
marginal use case.
Also it's not pretty, but that should be easy to tweak once we get the
framework merged.

This allows us to load our own code before most dependencies are
loaded. Our compiled Handlebars files still need the Handlebars

dependencies yet.

This commit takes control of keyboard-based pagination away
from the browser, so that we can use the effective viewport
size as the amount to page, as well as keeping a little bit
of overlap from page to page. There had been issues with
pagination for a while, but the introduction of the always-open
composebox particularly aggravated the situation.

* Start a compose when we do a file upload
* Restore the "Formatting" and "Feedback" links.
* Dismiss composebox error messages when we defocus composebox
Realistically, the "correct" way to do this is not to have to
explicitly manage the composebox's state, as we do now -- it should
just be 100% visible and ready to send any time you click 'send'; it
shouldn't need to have first been composebox.start()ed.

* Properly resize compose area when we cancel out of it.
* Re-enable clicking on 'reply' in popover.
(The issue with the latter is that clicking on "Reply" started
a reply and then bubbled up and triggered our code that canceled
a reply because you clicked out of the composebox.)

Really, the "correct" way to do this is to undo "scrolltheworld", and
then just have a compose div that always lives underneath the message
list div. (This will also allow us to deal much more reasonably with
the whole "Is the composebox in focus" thing.)
In the interest of prototyping something more rapidly, though, we
adopt the somewhat more hackish approach, with the understanding that
much of it will probably be simplified later.

We previously kept the lists in the DOM for all streams and updated
them all when new messages arrived. This was very expensive for
large numbers of streams, so we now just build the subject lists on
demand.

This commit also fixes a bug where "starred messages" wouldn't get
bolded when you narrowed to starred messages. However, it also
introduces a regression where subjects aren't highlighted correctly
on load to a narrow which will be fixed shortly.

This will matter shortly as hashchange.initialize can call

Really, I have no idea why we have these initialize() methods anyway

The String.localeCompare function is really slow, at least partially
because it creates a locale-aware collator object each time. So now,
when we can, we create and cache a locale-aware collator object.
However, this is not supported on most browsers, so we fall back to a
non-locale-aware comparison. This is not ideal, but for now we are
mostly working with English-speaking customers.

The .data() method tries to coerce the value of the attribute into a

On page load, the scroll_finished function was being called and
scroll_start_message was -1. This caused us to mark all messages
that we loaded through the messages initially visible as read. This
was particularly problematic because message_range iterates over all
message ids between its two arguments.

Previously we were doing quadratic work in the number of streams

We were previously calling sort_narrow_list after each stream was was
added. Because it is linear in the current length of the sidebar
list, we were doing quadratic work on page load. When we enabled the
streams sidebar on the MIT realm, this became problematic because of
the number of subscriptions Zephyr users have.

Messages are now explicitly condensed by our JS, which means that if
we run into some bug where our JS doesn't run, you still see the whole
message (rather than getting a clipped message).
(As of this commit, this can happen when you, e.g. are on the
Settings page and someone sends you a message.)
(imported from commit f3bec97800ea1852c80203e73552ee545fcc7e8a)
Previously, we were having this problem where:
* You narrow to something
* That causes message_list.js:process_collapsing to run on all of the
elements in the view, which changes some of their sizes
* That causes the pane to scroll and either push the content up or
down, depending (since stuff on top of where you were is now a
different size)
* That triggers keep_pointer_in_view, which moves your pointer
Moving process_collapsing into narrow.activate doesn't obviously
fix any of this, but it does seem to mitigate the issue a bit.
In particular, we (a) process it less frequently, and (b) process it
immediately after we show the narrowed view table, which seems to
reduce the raciness of the overall experience.
This does, however, introduce a regression:
* If you receive a long message when you're on
#settings, e.g., and then go back to Home,
the message does not properly get a [More] appended
to it.
