This feature has been obsolete since when Zulip was released as open
source software, since it's purpose was to avoid putting a "server
url" prompt in the desktop app, and now that prompt is required
anyway.
When we refactored zilencer to use a single urls.py file in
bf50dd7771, we accidentally lost the
prefix on the API urls.
This broke sending error report emails if zilencer was enabled.
For a long time, rest_dispatch has had this hack where we have to
create a copy of it in each views file using it, in order to directly
access the globals list in that file. This removes that hack, instead
making rest_dispatch just use Django's import_string to access the
target method to use.

ways by tabbott]
The previous separated-out configuration wasn't helping us, and this
makes it easier to make the extra installed applications pluggable in
the following commits.
