The startup code in subs.js used to intermingle data
stuff and UI stuff in a loop inside a called function,
which made the code hard to reason about.
Now there is a clear separation of concerns, with these methods
being called in succession:
stream_data.initialize_from_page_params();
stream_list.create_initial_sidebar_rows();
The first method was mostly extracted from subs.js, but I simplified
some things, like not needing to make a copy of the hashes
we were passed in, plus I now garbage collect email_dict. Also,
the code path that initialize_from_page_params() mostly replaces
used to call create_sub(), which fired a trigger, but now it
just does data stuff.
Once the data structure is built up, it's a very simple matter
to build the initial sidebar rows, and that's what the second
method does.
This function will make it easier to unit test upcoming
changes related to stream counts.
This was mostly moving code, but one change is that we
don't call create_subs() in subs.js any more (which would
have been kind of circular dependency), since the only thing
that it did besides calling a more appropriate function
in stream_data.js was to generate a trigger that was
subsequently ignored and possibly a UI trap, as we don't
want to be messing with the stream sidebar when we go into
the stream settings page.
We now simply call exports.create_sub_from_server_data() for
newly encountered unsubscribed streams (which don't belong in
the sidebar anyway.)
This function used to live in subs.js. It's mostly a code move,
but I simplified the logic to determine whether it's subscribed
not to do a lookup into the same data structure that the sub
already came from.
I also added some tests.
This moves these functions from subs.js to stream_data.js:
receives_desktop_notifications
receives_audible_notifications
This makes notifications.js no longer dependent on the
bloated subs.js.
The JS code can now call stream_data.get_sub_by_id() to get
a sub from a stream_id. Subs have stream_id due to a prior commit,
and we keep track of the mapping in stream_data's subs_by_stream_id
variable.

The tutorial introduces "engineering" messages that might not
be in the user's normal subscription, and they would get a gray
border if we did not override the stream color. Before this change,
we accomplished this by overriding the core data structure in
stream_data.js. Now we are a bit more future-proof; we only
override stream_color.default_color.

I want to make subscribed_streams() external, but it conflicts with
a legacy name in the same module (stream_data.js), so I have to rename
it in the same commit. The new name conforms better to the current
naming convention, which generally has functions returning objects
use "sub" in the name.

For a large domain like HS, we were pulling back about 100k of
text with subscriber emails when we opened the Streams page.
This was unnecessary, as the subscribers aren't shown until
you expand the stream, and there's already an AJAX call.

Warn inside these functions when you get data on streams that you
are not subscribed to:
add_subscriber
remove_subscriber
user_is_subscribed
The back end should be smart enough not to spam us with subscriber
info that we don't care about.

Though this should not be common, getting a peer subscribed/
unsubscribed notification to a stream we don't yet know about should
not be fatal

This is feature-flagged to staging only.
There are basically 3 parts to the implementation:
1. In response to typing, fade/unfade the user list.
2. When a compose is aborted, unfade all users.
3. When the presence list is redrawn, fade/unfade the user list again.

This function returns the stream's actual name, if we can get it;
otherwise, it's the identity function.
