This is in preparation for having a case in which we query the
database directly to get the message flags, without going through a
UserMessage object.

This decreases the average size of the message dicts in memcached by
about half, without any significant change in the overall performance
of the query. Since these message dicts are a significant fraction of
what we put in memcached, this seems like a worthwhile optimization.

memcached stores objects sent to it using pickling, which is very
slow. We work around this by sending memcached strings (i.e. JSON
dumps); pickling doesn't slow things down too much if all it is
getting is a string.

This saves something like 15ms on our 1000 message get_old_messages
queries, and will save even more when we start sending JSON dumps into
our memcached system.
We need to install python-ujson on servers and dev instances before
pushing this to prod.

Show user-uploaded avatars on the website for users who have
UserProfile.avatar_source == 'U'. (Continue to show gravatars
for other users.) This includes the home page, the visible-phone
div, and the settings page.
This fix does NOT address a few things:
* There is no GUI to actually upload user images yet on the website.
* The !gravatar syntax in bugdown will continue to show gravatar images
only.
* We are not changing identicon behavior.

I've tried to do this in a way that's scalable and easily configured,
so that we can add new such filters for customers on-demand without
needing to add anything other than a bit of configuration.
Once we're confident in the arguments to this system, I think we'll
want to move the regular expression lists into the database so that we
don't need to do a prod push to modify the regular expression lists.
The initial set of regular expressions are:
(1) Linkifying e.g. "trac #224" in the Humbug realm, so we're exercising this code.
(2) The various ticket number things CUSTOMER7 uses for the CUSTOMER7 realm.

We also record the historical edits to the message in this JSON format:
[{"prev_content": "new test message 14", "timestamp": 1369157249},
{"prev_content": "new test message 13", "timestamp": 1369157118}]
but we don't actually do anything with the information as of yet.

This decouples from Chrome notifications, which gives us cross-platform

We log this action so its replayable in our message logs.
This implements the model change indicated by the previous schema commit.

Previously, we were fetching Message.objects.select_related() from the
database, even if we actually ended up fetching the message dicts from
memcached and thus not actually using them. Especially in the cached
case, this resulted in a lot of overhead where the Django ORM put
together Message objects with lots of data in them that were never
used. This commit switches the model to only fetch the full message
objects from the database for those messages which are not found in
the memcached caches.
Here are the timings for get_old_messages before this patch was applied:
(cached)

(uncached)

507ms (db: 94ms/14q) /json/get_old_messages (starnine@mit.edu via website)
Here are the timings for get_old_messages after this patch was applied:

On my laptop, this saves about 80 milliseconds per 1000 messages
requested via get_old_messages queries. Since we only have one
memcached process and it does not run with special priority, this
might have significant impact on load during server restarts.

It's subtle, but the slice was in the wrong place and wasn't
actually truncating the stream name at all, so the client and
server disagreed about where the tutorial messages should go.
(It might be the case that we should accept the tutorial stream
name from the client directly, rather than computing it in two
places.)

We accidentally lost this when we did the User/UserProfile merge (this
commit also deletes the old code to add the auth_user index in
do-destroy-rebuild-database).
This below is mostly just notes for future reference, but when
deploying this change to staging, we should consider running the
following instead of using the migration directly:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX CONCURRENTLY zephyr_userprofile_email_uniq ON zephyr_userprofile(email);
ALTER TABLE zephyr_userprofile ADD CONSTRAINT zephyr_userprofile_email_uniq UNIQUE USING INDEX zephyr_userprofile_email_uniq;
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY zephyr_userprofile_email ON zephyr_userprofile(email);
But I think it might be the case that it's fine to just run it
directly, since the ALTER TABLE part seems to hang if there's an open
transaction working on a UserProfile object anyway.

This is preparatory for removing the StreamColor model, so we also set
things up so anything changing the StreamColor model changes the
Subscription model too.

deployment to each of staging and prod.

And keep the fields updated, by copying on UserProfile creation and
updating the UserProfile object whenever we're updating the User
object, and add management commands to (1) initially ensure that they
match and (2) check that they still match (aka that the updating code
is working).
The copy_user_to_userprofile migration needs to be run after this is
deployed to prod.

Our testing code had a number of places where it was using User
objects where it should have been using UserProfile objects --
e.g. using a User id as the type_id in a Recipient table. This commit
addresses this in the filter_by_subscriptions code paths.
(imported from commit e305bc8e2a8bdbfd04c93c59d56955e7971552af)
The previous situation was bad for two reasons:
(1) It had a lot of copies of the code, some of them missing pieces:
UserProfile.objects.get(user__email__iexact=foo)
This was in particular going to be inconvenient since we are dropping
the __user part of that.
(2) It didn't take advantage of our memcached caching.

See http://bugs.python.org/issue5876 for an explanation for why this
is needed -- basically __repr__() needs to return a string, not a
unicode object in Python 2.
This causes problems on Django 1.5 because the more expressive
exception code in model.objects.get() will crash with a __repr__()
containing non-ascii unicode characters.
