Anders Kaseorg 28f3dfa284 js: Automatically convert var to let and const in most files.
This commit was originally automatically generated using `tools/lint
--only=eslint --fix`.  It was then modified by tabbott to contain only
changes to a set of files that are unlikely to result in significant
merge conflicts with any open pull request, excluding about 20 files.
His plan is to merge the remaining changes with more precise care,
potentially involving merging parts of conflicting pull requests
before running the `eslint --fix` operation.

Anders Kaseorg d17b577d0c js: Purge useless IIFEs.
With webpack, variables declared in each file are already file-local
(Global variables need to be explicitly exported), so these IIFEs are
no longer needed.

Armaan Ahluwalia 6d255efe4c app: Prepare JS files for consumption by webpack.
This commit prepares the frontend code to be consumed by webpack.

It is a hack: In theory, modules should be declaring and importing the
modules they depend on and the globals they expose directly.

However, that requires significant per-module work, which we don't
really want to block moving our toolchain to webpack on.

So we expose the modules by setting window.varName = varName; as
needed in the js files.

Steve Howell 435719c65b Add a schema checking concept to the web app.
This starts the concept of a schema checker, similar to
zerver/lib/validator.py on the server.  We can use this
to validate incoming data.  Our server should filter most
of our incoming data, but it's useful to have client-side
checking to defend against things like upgrade
regressions (i.e. what if we change the name of the field
on the server side without updating all client uses).
