To work around the issue we're having with queue draining between
parallel blocking connections, use the same rabbitmq queue for both
activity and presence events, keyed on a 'type' flag in the message
itself.

This should make it much easier to debug issues where a particular
user is hosing our API, for example.

Note: When deploying, restarting the process-user-activity-commandline script is needed

Previously we only got the user ID for /json requests, not /api
requests, and also only got the user ID, not the email address.

Before this is deployed, we need to install rabbitmq and pika on the
target server (see the puppet part of this commit for how).
When this is deployed, we need to start the new user activity bot:
./manage.py process_user_activity
in the screen session on the relevant server, or user_activity logs
won't be processed (which will eventually result in all users getting
notifications about how their mirrors are out of date).

This commit has the effect of eliminating all of the non-UserActivity
database queries from the Tornado process -- at least in the uncached
case.
This is safe to do, if a bit fragile, since our Tornado code only
accesses these objects (as opposed to their IDs) in a few places that
are all fine with old data, and I don't expect us to add any new ones
soon:
* UserActivity logging, which I plan to move out of Tornado entirely
* Checking whether we're authenticated in our decorators (which could
be simplified -- the actual security check is just whether the
Django session object has a particular field)
* Checking the user realm for whether we should sync to the client
notices about their Zephyr mirror being up to date, which is quite
static and I think we can move out of this code path.
But implementation constraints around mapping the user_ids to
user_profile_ids mean that it makes sense to get the actual objects
for now.
This code is not what I want to do long-term. I expect we'll be able
to clean up the dual User/UserProfile nonsense once we integrate the
upcoming Django 1.5 release, with its support for pluggable User
models, and after that I change, I expect it'll be fairly easy to make
the Tornado code only work with the user ID, not the actual objects.

This should save a database query when we later need to access fields
such as the user's realm name in format_updates_response.

The transaction.commit() line inside the except IntegrityError clause
doesn't work unless we've entered transaction management.

Adding a positional argument caused a problem when
@authenticated_api_view started using @has_request_variables
internally. The 'handler' argument used to be passed through
positionally to the wrapped function, but when using
@has_request_variables, the wrapper inside @authenticated_api_view
had to take additional arguments. The handler argument was then
assigned to one of those parameters instead of being passed through.

This change substantially increases the number of view functions where
the API and JSON versions are actually identical code.

Functions with the @has_request_variables decorator can have some of
their arguments extracted from the HTTP request. For each such
argument, its default value should be an instance of the POST class.
The arguments to the POST constructor control the request variable
name that the function parameter should be populated from (it
defaults to the same as the parameter name), whether the value should
be converted before being passed, and whether a default value should
be supplied if the parameter is missing from the request.
