Previously, we counted not just the time required to process a
particular request, but also the time required to import+find the view
function via urls.py. The latter is usually fast, but when a new
Django thread starts up, it can take significant time, resulting in us
flagging slow requests on each server restart and also when a new
Django thread starts up on prod to handle requests.
This change means that we no longer include that startup time as part
of request processing time -- but we still log it in the case that it
was more than 5ms, so that we can identify why a particular request
was slower than expected if high startup times become a problem. We
annotate the time in log lines as "+start" rather than just "start" to
make clear that it's not counted in the total.

This is useful for the occasional case where we cannot figure out what
is causing a particular problem, but it can be easily reproduced on
staging.

We also now separate out the times for the socket overhead, the
request service time, and the queuing delays.

I believe with this change the log lines will fit much better into
Zulip, and the Client string was I suspect rarely important for
responding to slow queries (and is always available in the main log
anyway).

This cache was created to make recipient lookups within a single
request (e.g. when fetching old messages) cheaper. To support stream
name changes, we need to invalidate this cache on every request so
that users get a consistent view of the name change.

This includes a hack to preserve humbug/backends.py as a symlink, so
that we don't need to regenerate all our old sessions.

This needs to be deployed to both staging and prod at the same
off-peak time (and the schema migration run).
At the time it is deployed, we need to make a few changes directly in
the database:
(1) UPDATE django_content_type set app_label='zerver' where app_label='zephyr';
(2) UPDATE south_migrationhistory set app_name='zerver' where app_name='zephyr';
