Make header and navigation components redraw after page components. Page components manipulate the header (state), but the header redraws before the page on route change. By changing the mount order, we change also the redraw order.
* Update frontend to Mithril 2
- Update Mithril version to v2.0.4
- Add Typescript typings for Mithril
- Rename "props" to "attrs"; "initProps" to "initAttrs"; "m.prop" to "m.stream"; "m.withAttr" to "utils/withAttr".
- Use Mithril 2's new lifecycle hooks
- SubtreeRetainer has been rewritten to be more useful for the new system
- Utils for forcing page re-initializations have been added (force attr in links, setRouteWithForcedRefresh util)
- Other mechanical changes, following the upgrade guide
- Remove some of the custom stuff in our Component base class
- Introduce "fragments" for non-components that control their own DOM
- Remove Mithril patches, introduce a few new ones (route attrs in <a>;
- Redesign AlertManagerState `show` with 3 overloads: `show(children)`, `show(attrs, children)`, `show(componentClass, attrs, children)`
- The `affixedSidebar` util has been replaced with an `AffixedSidebar` component
Challenges:
- `children` and `tag` are now reserved, and can not be used as attr names
- Behavior of links to current page changed in Mithril. If moving to a page that is handled by the same component, the page component WILL NOT be re-initialized by default. Additional code to keep track of the current url is needed (See IndexPage, DiscussionPage, and UserPage for examples)
- Native Promise rejections are shown on console when not handled
- Instances of components can no longer be stored. The state pattern should be used instead.

Like previous "state PRs", this moves app-wide logic relating to
our "composer" widget to its own "state" class, which can be
referenced and called from all parts of the app. This lets us
avoid storing component instances, which we cannot do any longer
once we update to Mithril v2.
This was not as trivial as some of the other state changes, as we
tried to separate DOM effects (e.g. animations) from actual state
changes (e.g. minimizing or opening the composer).
New features:
- A new `app.screen()` method returns the current responsive screen
mode. This lets us check what breakpoint we're on in JS land
without hardcoding / duplicating the actual breakpoints from CSS.
- A new `SuperTextarea` util exposes useful methods for directly
interacting with and manipulating the text contents of e.g. our
post editor.
- A new `ConfirmDocumentUnload` wrapper component encapsulates the
logic for asking the user for confirmation when trying to close
the browser window or navigating to another page. This is used in
the composer to prevent accidentally losing unsaved post content.
There is still potential for future cleanups, but we finally want
to unblock the Mithril update, so these will have to wait:
- Composer height change logic is very DOM-based, so should maybe
not sit in the state.
- I would love to experiment with using composition rather than
inheritance for the `ComposerBody` subclasses.
- Encapsulate app.current, app.previous in PageState objects
- Reorganize Page classes to use one central base class in common

* Remove AbstractOAuth2Controller
There is no reason to provide an implementation for a specific oAuth2
library in core; it's not generic enough (eg. auth-twitter can't use it).
This code could be moved into another package which auth extensions
depend on, but it's a negligible amount of relatively simple code that
I don't think it's worth the trouble.
* Introduce login providers
Users can have many login providers (a combination of a provider name
and an identifier for that user, eg. their Facebook ID).
After retrieving user data from a provider (eg. Facebook), you pass the
login provider details into the Auth\ResponseFactory. If an associated
user is found, a response that logs them in will be returned. If not, a
registration token will be created so the user can proceed to sign up.
Once the token is fulfilled, the login provider will be associated with
the user.
* Run extenders exported by extensions
* Add some basic extenders
* Patch Mithril as the very first thing so extension code can run safely
* Load the payload into the app before booting extensions
* Setup default routes before booting extensions
* Replace gulp with webpack and npm scripts for JS compilation
* Set up Travis CI to commit compiled JS
* Restructure `js` directory; only one instance of npm, forum/admin are "submodules"
* Refactor JS initializers into Application subclasses
* Maintain partial compatibility API (importing from absolute paths) for extensions
* Remove minification responsibility from PHP asset compiler
* Restructure `less` directory
