Originally this cache was used to transmit data from Django to Tornado
(and also for general message caching purposes), but now nothing
actually reads from this cache, so we can eliminate it.
Due to a cyclic dependency issue, functions having models as parameters
were annotated as Any.
That issue is fixed by importing models inside an `if False:` block,
so that mypy sees them but they are not imported at runtime.
In update_user_profile_caches, the return type in annotation was
marked as Any. Change that to None because, nothing is being returned
in that function.
This changes the type annotations for the cache keys in Zulip to be
consistently text_type, and updates the annotations for values that
are used as cache keys across the codebase.

This probably still has some bugs in it, but having mostly complete
annotations for models.py will help a lot for the annotations folks
are adding to other files.
The old code for this lookup was unnecessarily complicated because we
were working around Guardian, where the `is_realm_admin` check was
extremely expensive.
Previously we relied on having two matching list of fields for the
get_active_user_dicts_in_realm, one in the actual code and the other
in the caching system. By unifying these lists to have a single
source, we eliminate a class of caching bugs we might otherwise
regularly introduce.
The function update_user_profile_caches now operates on a list
of user_profiles, so callers like flush_realm() can benefit from
having a single cache_set_many() call. This slightly complicates
the call from flush_user_profile().

For the realm-wide caches of active user dicts and alert words, just
make a single call to cache_delete() when you are deactivating a
realm. Before this change, we were doing O(N) cache_deletes as
part of the code path through flush_user_profile(). Now we just
call update_user_profile_caches() directly to clear the user_profile
caches.
This change also sets us up to turn flush_realm() into a post-save hook.

This is a slight behavior change, as we now flush user_profile
caches for bots as well as humans.

This function updates all the user_profile-related caches
that are keyed on a per-user basis.
(This had some test coverage already.)

The do_send_messages() populates the user_presences data structure
for process_new_message(), so that Tornado code never needs to hit
the database or memcached to get the user presence info.
