5c220ed11a typing_status: Use parameters for data rather than callbacks.
The real purpose these two callbacks serve is exactly what an ordinary
parameter is perfect for:
 * Each has just one call site, at the top of the function.
 * They're not done for side effects; the point is what they return.
 * The function doesn't pass them any arguments of its own, or
   otherwise express any internal knowledge that doesn't just as
   properly belong to its caller.

So, push the calls to these callbacks up into the function's caller,
and pass in the data they return instead.

This greatly simplifies the interface of `handle_text_input` and of
`typing_status` in general.

07322d78a0 typing_status: Pull is_valid_conversation call up to top.
This is intended as a pure refactor, making the data flow clearer in
preparation for further changes.  In particular, this makes it
manifest that the calls to `get_recipient` and `is_valid_conversation`
don't depend on anything else that has happened during the call to
`handle_text_input`.

This is indeed a pure refactor because
 * is_valid_conversation itself has no side effects, either in the
   implementation in typing.js or in any reasonable implementation,
   so calling it sooner doesn't affect anything else;
 * if we do reach it, the only potentially-side-effecting code it's
   moving before is a call to `stop_last_notification`, and that in
   turn (with the existing, or any reasonable, implementation of
   `notify_server_stop`) has no effect on the data consulted by
   the implementation of `is_valid_conversation`.

This allows the mobile app to stay well-typed while using this code.

a63786ac0d shared: Set up a way to share some frontend code with the mobile app.
This adds the general machinery required, and sets it up for the file
`typing_status.js` as a first use case.
