The desktop otp flow (to be added in next commits) will want to generate
one-time tokens for the app that will allow it to obtain an
authenticated session. log_into_subdomain will be the endpoint to pass
the one-time token to. Currently it uses signed data as its input
"tokens", which is not compatible with the otp flow, which requires
simpler (and fixed-length) token. Thus the correct scheme to use is to
store the authenticated data in redis and return a token tied to the
data, which should be passed to the log_into_subdomain endpoint.
In this commit, we replace the "pass signed data around" scheme with the
redis scheme, because there's no point having both.
Previous cleanups (mostly the removals of Python __future__ imports)
were done in a way that introduced leading newlines. Delete leading
newlines from all files, except static/assets/zulip-emoji/NOTICE,
which is a verbatim copy of the Apache 2.0 license.

We can add it back later but for now we can just stick with localhost
since that's what most people will want.

Before we deploy this commit, we must migrate the data from the staging redis
server to the new, dedicated redis server. The steps for doing so are the
following:
* Remove the zulip::redis puppet class from staging's zulip.conf
* ssh once from staging to redis-staging.zulip.net so that the host key is known
* Create a tunnel from redis0.zulip.net to staging.zulip.net
* zulip@redis0:~$ ssh -N -L 127.0.0.1:6380:127.0.0.1:6379 -o ServerAliveInterval=30 -o ServerAliveCountMax=3 staging.zulip.net
* Set the redis instance on redis0.zulip.net to replicate the one on staging.zulip.net
* redis 127.0.0.1:6379> slaveof 127.0.0.1 6380
* Stop the app on staging
* Stop redis-server on staging
* Promote the redis server on redis0.zulip.net to a master
* redis 127.0.0.1:6379> slaveof no one
* Do a puppet apply at this commit on staging (this will bring up the tunnel to redis0)
* Deploy this commit to staging (start the app on staging)
* Kill the tunnel from redis0.zulip.net to staging.zulip.net
* Uninstall redis-server on staging
The steps for migrating prod will be the same modulo s/staging/prod0/.
