Since we don't change our deployments without restarting Django and
don't use any custom template magic, this should be a free performance
win.

I figure we can start with 600s as a maximum age -- our threads do
many dozens of requests per minute, so I figure we'll get most of the
benefit of permanently persisting connections this way. I could also
be convinced to do just 60s, though the impact will likely to be less
visible on staging. 600s seems to be what Django originally had for
this parameter before they disabled it by default. See:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/django-developers/rH0QQP7tI6w/yBusiFTNBR4J
for discussion, which also suggests we might have issues with
runserver that we should watch out for.

Move commands related to stats collection and reporting from
zilencer to analytics. To do this, we had to make "analytics"
officially an app.

Run the following commands as root before deploying this branch:
# /root/zulip/tools/migrate-server-config
# rm /etc/zulip/machinetype /etc/zulip/server /etc/zulip/local /etc/humbug-machinetype /etc/humbug-server /etc/humbug-local

This moves the list of removed files from .gitattributes to
tools/build-local-server-tarball because static/ and tools/ are
necessary for update-prod-static, and it seemed best to keep the
entire list in one place.

This is something we'll want to do before we switch to Django 1.6,
since it's the default there, and I'm not aware of any significant
problems this switch will cause.

Looking at the historical data, fewer than 50% of active users have
completed the checklist, which means that it is just persistent
clutter. We also have other better ways of encouraging people to send
traffic and get the apps now.
This commit removes both the frontend UI and backend work but leaves
the db row for now for the historical data.

Subclasses of QueueProcessingWorker that don't override start() will

will catch exceptions and log data from troublesome events to a log

We need to do a puppet apply to create /var/log/zulip/queue_error.

This commit must be simultaneously deployed on both staging and
prod0. It also requires completely taking down the app.
To deploy these changes, do:
* check out this commit at /root/zulip on postgres0, postgres1, staging, and prod0
* stop the process_fts_updates job on postgres0 and postgres1
* stop the app on staging and prod0
* do a puppet apply on postgres0, postgres1, staging, and prod0
* move the new client certificates into place on staging and app
* move the new server certificates into place on postgres0 and postgres1
* reload the database config on postgres0 and postgres1 (this might
actually require a restart)
* run tools/migrate-db on postgres0 as root
* do a deploy through this commit on staging and prod0
* start the process_fts_updates job on postgres0 and postgres1
* do a puppet apply on nagios

Here we introduce a new Django app, zilencer. The intent is to not have
this app enabled on LOCALSERVER instances, and for it to grow to include
all the functionality we want to have in our central server that isn't
relevant for local deployments.
Currently we have to modify functions in zerver/* to match; in the
future, it would be cool to have the relevant shared code broken out
into a separate library.
This commit inclues both the migration to create the models as well as a
data migration that (for non-LOCALSERVER) creates a single default
Deployment for zulip.com.
To apply this migration to your system, run:
./manage.py migrate zilencer

New dependency: sockjs-tornado
One known limitation is that we don't clean up sessions for
non-websockets transports. This is a bug in Tornado so I'm going to
look at upgrading us to the latest version:

This may require just doing an mv on the home directory, plus changing
the home directory in /etc/passwd. It should of course be done carefully.

This has been deployed, so the current code is now properly
minified, and we don't need the force_minify flag any more.
(The flag is needed when you remove a JS file from JS_SPECS.)
(imported from commit 8b3c7ffdbc875011d59c2560034750f0077db616)
The minify logic doesn't have an easy way to detect that you
removed a file since the last deployment.

We are still showing the same data points, but the logic to drill
down on details for a particular realm is now all server side,
not client side, and we are smarter about omitting fields. In
summary mode, we don't show empty Name or Email columns. In
detailed mode, we show the realm as a headline instead of a column.
In this version you do lose the ability to see all system users in
the same view, but Waseem is ok with this.
(imported from commit edd2e646ab4cf5783ea64232d0cd621debece8d4)
When you load the activity report, it will just show summary
counts for realms, but if you click on a realm, you will see
details about users in the realms. You can also click "Show all"
to see an interleaved view of realms and users.

I believe this was the source of the "Handlebars.compile is not a

This shows up when you're not running a Zephyr mirroring bot and lets
you use Webathena to have us run it. Obviously needs more docs.
Current problems include:
* supervisorctl reload ends up recreating /var/run/supervisor.sock
with the wrong permissions, so it only works once in a row before
you need to chmod that.
* /etc/supervisor/conf.d needs to be humbug-writeable; this is a clear
local root vulnerability
* This uses SSH and thus is kinda slow.

This change will allow us to test the muting feature on
staging. Any topic named "muted" will automatically be
muted. You can also mute any other topic on the console:
muting.mute_topic('devel', 'ios');
current_msg_list.rerender();
More UI around this experiment will be coming soon, as well
as support for muting entire streams.
The muting module keeps track of which topics are muted, but a
user can expand muted messages, and once that happens, the
messages are marked with the "force_expand" flag that gets
persisted to the back end.
Muted messages are rendered in similar fashion to the summarized
rows, and as part of unifying some of that code, we have
made it so that expanding a summarized section doesn't remove
individual flags related to summaries; instead, the messages
get the force_expand flag set.

We now show a list of users and allow you to deactivate a user using the
same process as `python manage.py deactivate_user`.
We add a new menu item accessible from the gear icon which will eventually
have much more than just this, but we have a good start here.
Here we also add a property to UserProfile which determines whether you're
eligible to access the administration panel, and then have code which shows
the menu option if so.
This introduces a new JS file, admin.js.

We instead implemented the ~desired functionality here using the
API and a bot to make a totally read-only, static, slowly-updating
view into the Zuliverse.

1) The class Filter now lives in its own module.
2) The function canonicalized_operators() is now a class method on Filter.
3) The function message_in_home moved to filter.js and became private.
4) Various calling code had to change, of course.
5) Splitting out Filter helped simplify a few tests.

The compose_fade has three public exports:
set_focused_recipient
unfade_messages
update_faded_messages
All code was pulled directly from compose.js, except for the
one-line setter of set_focused_recipient. The focused_recipients
variable that used to be in compose.js was moved to compose_fade.js,
hence the need for the setter.

"Kiosk mode" is a "read-only" Zulip suitable for embedding into
an iframe on another site. I say "read-only" in quotation marks,
because the account is still a fully-fledged active account on
the server, and we just tear out a bunch of stuff in Javascript
(that a malicious user could easily re-enable).
So in that sense, it's not actually safe in security-sensitive
environments -- malicious users logged in via kiosk mode
can do anything the kiosk-mode user can do.
(We need this functionality for the customer3 realm specifically;
we'll possibly just tear this code back out once that experiment
has run its course.)

This is a pure refactoring that mostly just moves code from
subs.js to the new stream_color.js and updates module references
accordingly. In order to prevent introducing some exports,
update_stream_color was given an additional "sub" parameter
and update_stream_sidebar_swatch_color was given an "id"
parameter.
Killed off unused initial_color_fetch var.
