The client may now optionally send its current pointer during
get_updates and the server will return the latest pointer if it
differs and was updated more recently by a different session.

Mobile clients need it.
We are going to need to sit down and think about how much power we
want to give our API users, though. For example, should they even get
to know about your absolute pointer value (maybe they should only be
able to make requests relative to your pointer), or be able to request
very old ranges of messages?

This makes it easier for mobile clients to use the API by enabling them to
present the user with a familiar username / password prompt, rather than
by asking them for their API key.

The key property is that we never reveal the non-public directory name
4nrjx8cwce2bka8r to a not-logged-in user. This makes it less likely that
random people from the Internet will download all our client code while we're
still in private beta.

Previously if you tried to send to "a b", we actually ended up trying
to send to "a%20b", since we were url-encoding the stream name and
then not properly decoding it.

We add a few templates for django-confirmation. We define a
"PreregistrationForm" which is validated by accounts_home, which then
generates a confirmation object and emails the user. This required creating
a new table for a PreregistrationUser with an email and status (confirmed)
field.
The register function now no longer accepts a "email" field in the form
and deals only with confirmation IDs to determine the email used to sign
up a user.

Put all the 'API'-ish URLs in the /json/ namespace so that
/subscriptions and /subscriptions/add, etc. can be real
user-facing URLs if we want them to be.

Now that 'manage_subscriptions' only removes subscriptions,
let's name it that. Also, since both functions now only
act on one subscription at a time, use them in the singular.

Here we check if a class exists. If not, we prompt the user to create, sub,
and send his message to the class. If the class exists but we're not subbed
we prompt the user to sub.
This commit also added a decorator to views.py and refactored out some
redundant code.
