Here we introduce a new manage.py command, activate_mit, which takes a
number of usernames and sends out emails to the users with instructions on
how to activate their accounts.

If we have other pages that require login, we might want them to redirect to
the login form. But the root of the site should take you to /accounts/home --
but only after we launch the product.

The get_profile API call now returns a client_id, which an API user
can pass to update_pointer and get_messages (note that clients still
need to pass a pointer argument to get pointer updates). This
client_id is currently the equivalent of the website's session key,
but the website might get client_ids in the future to distinguish
browser windows.
This commit differs from 88f6cf0033c849af88d1b99da3bdc2148dfbb6fe in
that it uses request.POST.get("foo") instead of request.POST["foo"].
For some reason the latter triggers CSRF errors.

This reverts commit 88f6cf0033c849af88d1b99da3bdc2148dfbb6fe.
It seems to have broken API users.

This is similar to the previous "reason_empty" variable, but captures
why we've returned from the call even when there are updates and all
the reasons if there are multiple. For now, it's useful for debugging.

This new call only allows fetching of existing messages. The idea is
to remove this functionality from get_updates to simplify the backend
code.

It's the safer default to prevent introducing XSS holes. And in our current
code, we always provide this parameter.

The previous code path was buggy. We now do separate pointer update
checking for the cases where get_updates returns immediately vs. when
it returns from a callback.

For now, the new function, format_delayed_updates_response, just
calls format_updates_response.

This allows us to check whether the session that updated the pointer
is the same as a session that is doing a long poll to avoid sending
new pointer information when that information is coming from the same
session.
We still return from the long poll early, though, which is sub-optimal.
(imported from commit 7d4be0956f112eacefb7d198ea929957cd2b05e3)
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.
