For internal stream messages, most of the time, we have access to
a Stream object. For the few corner cases where we don't, it is a
much cleaner approach to have a separate function that accepts a
stream name than having one multi-option helper that accepts both
names and objects.
If the caller has access to a Stream object, it is wasteful to
query a database for a stream by ID or name. In addition, not
having to go through stream names eliminates various classes of
possible bugs involved with getting a Stream object back.
The only changes visible at the AST level, checked using
https://github.com/asottile/astpretty, are
zerver/lib/test_fixtures.py:
'\x1b\\[(1|0)m' ↦ '\\x1b\\[(1|0)m'
'\\[[X| ]\\] (\\d+_.+)\n' ↦ '\\[[X| ]\\] (\\d+_.+)\\n'
which is fine because re treats '\\x1b' and '\\n' the same way as
'\x1b' and '\n'.

Issue #2088 asked for a wrapper to be created for
`create_stream_if_needed` (called `ensure_stream`) for the 25 times that
`create_stream_if_needed` is called and ignores whether the stream was
created. This commit replaces relevant occurences of
`create_stream_if_needed` with `ensure_stream`, including imports.
The changes weren't significant enough to add any tests or do any
additional manual testing.
The refactoring intended to make the API easier to use in most cases.
The majority of uses of `create_stream_if_needed` ignored the second
parameter.
Fixes: #2088.
