We previously auto-mocked this out of expediency, but that made it
impossible to test anything that uses the Zod schemata in the same
module.

Instead of current_user.user_id we use page_params.is_spectator
field to check the spectator cases as it makes it more clear
to the reader about what is the condition checking.
Note: This involves adding presence info of unknown users to the
presence data.
With some small tweaks, we can just add the info to the presence data
structures, just making sure the buddy list correctly skips those
entries and that we redraw the user in the case where the user creation
event arrives after the presence polling loop.
For spectators, the chunk of page_params that originates from
do_events_register isn’t assigned until ui_init.js. That means the
TypeScript type of page_params is mostly a lie during module load
time: reading a parameter too early silently results in undefined
rather than the declared type, with unpredictable results later on.
We want to make such an early read into an immediate runtime error,
for both users and spectators consistently, and pave the way for
runtime validation of the page_params type. As a second step, split
out the subset of fields that pertain to the entire realm.

We have already fixed the actual bugs that were resulting in client
receiving presence data for unknown user, so we can remove the
blueslip logging and just skip the unknown users.
We should make `get_by_user_id` type-safe in the sense that it's caller
should not expect undefined values and hence it's caller should not
need to validate the user ids.
To do this I extracted a method `maybe_get_user_by_id` which is
type-unsafe version of this function which will allow undefined values
and will behave exactly the same as the previous version. So the callers
which expects the undefined values from this function should use this
new function `maybe_get_user_by_id`.
Probably about half of these callers are implicitly iterating through
all users in the people.js data set and thus by construction should
never fail, but it's simpler to just convert all existing callers than
do that audit.
This lets us simplify the long-ish ‘../../static/js’ paths, and will
remove the need for the ‘zrequire’ wrapper.
