The functions add_dependencies() and set_global() are convenience
methods that allow you to modify the global namespace while
the current file is running but then have it be cleaned up
by index.js when you're done.

1) The class Filter now lives in its own module.
2) The function canonicalized_operators() is now a class method on Filter.
3) The function message_in_home moved to filter.js and became private.
4) Various calling code had to change, of course.
5) Splitting out Filter helped simplify a few tests.

If you entered "stream:Denmark " in the search box, we would show
you two suggestions for "stream Denmark", despite our duplicate
detection, because we didn't canonicalize the suggestion that is
literally based off the user typed query, and so the other way
of generating the "stream Denmark" suggestion created a duplicate.
Now all the suggestions we generate are canonicalized, so the
generalized duplicate detection can work.

This needs to be deployed to both staging and prod at the same
off-peak time (and the schema migration run).
At the time it is deployed, we need to make a few changes directly in
the database:
(1) UPDATE django_content_type set app_label='zerver' where app_label='zephyr';
(2) UPDATE south_migrationhistory set app_name='zerver' where app_name='zephyr';
