Prabhakar Gupta bc6421fbfb tools: Remove empty wrapper script build_emoji.
This renames the old `emoji_dump.py` to `build_emoji`, removing the
old shell essentially empty shell script.  `emoji_dump.py` was always
a weird name, and this makes it a bit easier to read the code for this
system.

Steve Howell 0bdc9fef5c Upgrade caspersjs to version 1.1.3. (w/acrefoot)
(Most of this work was done by acrefoot in an earlier branch.
I took over the branch to fix casper tests that were broken during
the upgrade (which were fixed in a different commit).  I also
made most of the changes to run-casper.)

This also upgrades phantomjs to 2.1.7.

The huge structural change here is that we no longer vendor casperjs
or download phantomjs with our own script.  Instead, we just use
casperjs and phantomjs from npm, via package.json.

Another thing that we do now is run casperjs tests individually, so
that we don't get strange test flakes from test interactions.  (Tests
can still influence each other in terms of changing data, since we
don't yet have code to clear the test database in between tests.)

A lot of this diff is just removing files and obsolete configurations.

The main new piece is in package.json, which causes npm to install the
new version.

Also, run-casper now runs files individually, as mentioned above.

We had vendored casperjs in the past.  I didn't bring over any of our
changes.  Some of the changes were performance-related (primarily
5fd58cf249), so the upgraded version may
be slower in some instances.  (I didn't do much measurement of that,
since most of our slowness when running tests is about the setup
environment, not casper itself.)  Any bug fixes that we may have
implemented in the past were either magically fixed by changes to
casper itself or by improvements we have made in the tests themselves
over the years.

Tim tested the Casper suite on his machine and running the full Casper
test suite is faster than it was before this change (1m30 vs. 1m50),
so we're at least not regressing overall performance.

Rishi Gupta 777fcaa6a0 Add new organization type field to Realm objects.
Adds a new field org_type to Realm.  Defaults for restricted_to_domain
and invite_required are now controlled by org_type at time of realm
creation (see zerver.lib.actions.do_create_realm), rather than at the
database level.  Note that the backend defaults are all
org_type=corporate, since that matches the current assumptions in the
codebase, whereas the frontend default is org_type=community, since if
a user isn't sure they probably want community.

Since we will likely in the future enable/disable various
administrative features based on whether an organization is corporate
or community, we discuss those issues in the realm creation form.
Before we actually implement any such features, we'll want to make
sure users understand what type of organization they are a member of.

Choice of org_type (via radio button) has been added to the realm
creation flow and the realm creation management command, and the
open-realm option removed.

The database defaults have not been changed, which allows our testing code
to work unchanged.

umkay 798e6faa9e provision: Use NVM to install node and npm.
NVM takes a specific node version and installs the node package and
a corresponding compatible npm package.

We use it in a somewhat hackish way to install node/npm globally with
a pinned version, since that's how we actually want to consume node in
our development environment.

Other details:
- Travis CI now is configured to use the version of node installed by
provision; the easiest way to do this was to sabotage the existing node
installation.
- jsdom is upgraded to a current version, which both requires recent
node and also is required for the tests to pass with recent node.
This fixes running the node tests on Xenial.

Fixes #1498.

Tim Abbott c9f9fb265e Update provision.py and Vagrantfile to support VMWare.
This adds support for using VMWare Fusion as the Vagrant provider,
which has better performance than Virtualbox at the price of being
nonfree (in all senses of the term).

We haven't done solid benchmarking as to how much faster it is than
the Virtualbox provider.

Kouhei Sutou 683f49aa99 Support full text search for all languages using pgroonga.
This adds support for using PGroonga to back the Zulip full-text
search feature.  Because built-in PostgreSQL full text search doesn't
support languages that don't put space between terms such as Japanese,
Chinese and so on. PGroonga supports all languages including Japanese
and Chinese.

Developers will need to re-provision when rebasing past this patch for
the tests to pass, since provision is what installs the PGroonga
package and extension.

PGroonga is enabled by default in development but not in production;
the hope is that after the PGroonga support is tested further, we can
enable it by default.

Fixes #615.

Steve Howell cdd03dec4d Extract media queries to media.css.
Create `media.css` using media queries that had been at the bottom

I also add `.screen-medium-show` and `.screen-narrow-show` to
`media.css`, as they seem to be an important part of our
responsive design.
