This is a first pass at building a framework for collecting various
stats about realms, users, streams, etc. Includes:
* New analytics tables for storing counts data
* Raw SQL queries for pulling data from zerver/models.py tables
* Aggregation functions for aggregating hourly stats into daily stats, and
aggregating user/stream level stats into realm level stats
* A management command for pulling the data
Note that counts.py was added to the linter exclude list due to errors
around %%s.
get_realm is better in two key ways:
* It uses memcached to fetch the data from the cache and thus is faster.
* It does a case-insensitive query and thus is more safe.
This contains the various fixes that needed to be made in order to get
accurate statistics.
Most notably, the active_users_between function in the previous
version of zerver/lib/statistics.py was broken for end dates in the
past, because it used the UserActivity table to get its data -- so in
fact it really was querying "users last active between".
This commit isn't super clean, but I figure we're probably better off
having our latest code for historical usage data in git so it doesn't
bitrot and anyone can improve on it.

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