We were having problems where we were suspiciously processing notices
at a rate of 1 notice per 15s, which suggests that we the select was
timing out even though there were notices to be fetched immediately.
We fix this by clearing the queue each time our select loop ends.

This should enabled us, in the future, to enable support for mail
zephyrs without requiring users to re-auth.

We were intending to just be directing the logger logs, not logging
every message for potentially resending.

This shows up when you're not running a Zephyr mirroring bot and lets
you use Webathena to have us run it. Obviously needs more docs.
Current problems include:
* supervisorctl reload ends up recreating /var/run/supervisor.sock
with the wrong permissions, so it only works once in a row before
you need to chmod that.
* /etc/supervisor/conf.d needs to be humbug-writeable; this is a clear
local root vulnerability
* This uses SSH and thus is kinda slow.

The davidben-patched-for-roost Zephyr branch (available at
https://github.com/davidben/zephyr/tree/roost) adds Zephyr support for
these options. We also patch python-zephyr to expose them. These
basically let you save your Zephyr tickets and port number to a file,
so that you can later restore them (even potentially after the machine
rebooted). Basically because Zephyr is UDP, the Zephyr server will
continue trying to deliver messages to a particular port number that
was registered for up to 20 minutes after getting an error; so we can
even have downtime and reboot and still get our packets so long as we
restore the sessions within 20 minutes.

Previously it only provided the list of all public streams; now it
allows one to specify any union of some of the following:
* all public streams
* all streams the user subscribed to
(the most relevant being the union of those two, which is what we want
for the "streams" page).
Or:
* all streams in realm (superuser only)
The manual task required is that when this is pushed to prod, we need
to also deploy the new sync-public-streams version to zmirror.

Our .crypt-table parsing code isn't quite correct, in that we don't
handle either the "zcrypt default" or "zcrypt by class/instance" pair
options (for sending messages in either direction) -- you have to be
zcrypting for an entire class. I think this makes sense given that on
the Zulip end we can only enforce anything on a stream level.

When we deploy this, we should remove the relevant jobs from root's
crontab on our app servers.

For now we only support the AES encryption type since the DES one is
probably not used anymore.

Just before this is pushed to prod, we need to rename the Humbug feedback
bot in the database using:
./manage.py change_user_email feedback@humbughq.comfeedback@zulip.com
/etc/init.d/memcached restart
and we also need to update and restart feedback-bot in its deployed
location.
No action is required on pushing this to staging, but in between when
this is pushed to staging and when it is pushed to prod (and that
transition performed), feedback will not work on staging.

When we push this to staging, we'll need to rename the bot in the
database and also pull on git.zulip.net.
