Previously, we had some hand-written logic for parsing the subject
line of the email's headers and turning it into a Python string using
each of the valid encodings for an email. That logic was buggy, and
sometimes resulted in a bytes object being passed into the
`send_zulip`, which would eventually throw an exception.
The fix for this is to use the Python standard library make_header
method for handling internationalized email headers.

Since the Zulip API runs on both developement and production
servers, it is misleading to mention "dev servers" when discussing
zuliprc files.
Also, note that it is better to manually edit all of our JS
examples than to implement macro-like functionality that we use
for our Python examples. For our current purposes, it would be
too much work to build a full-blown testing framework for our
JS code examples just so that we can fix a minor wording issue.
Fixes#10672.
Guest users can not add subscribers to subscribed or unsubscribed
streams. Therefore hide add-subs html element if current user
is guest user.
Tweaked by tabbott to use the early-return pattern.
Add explanation in popover on disabled add-subscriptions input elements,
admin can't add subscribers to non subscribed private streams, only
subscribed users can.
Fixes#10593
Fixes part 1 of #10612. We use a regex to remove RE:, FWD: (and similar
variations) from email subjects. Unit test is included, we add
subjects.json in fixtures containing various subjects to try the
stripping on.
There's a subtle change here in how we handle the
hypothetical case that the selected message is above
the top of the feed. Instead of early-exiting
from _maybe_autoscroll(), we just treat the limit
as zero, which will have the same effect.
We also change a var name be just `scroll_limit`
instead of `available_space_for_scroll`. A longer
name would be valuable if it were somehow more
specific, but it was needlessly verbose.
The idea is to use this field for storing the best matching alias
to be displayed in search results. In subsequent commits I will
replace the search and rendering logic to use this field instead
of creating new objects on each search.
