Alex Vandiver ed6d62a9e7 avatars: Serve /user_avatars/ through Django, which offloads to nginx. ...

Moving `/user_avatars/` to being served partially through Django
removes the need for the `no_serve_uploads` nginx reconfiguring when
switching between S3 and local backends.  This is important because a
subsequent commit will move S3 attachments to being served through
nginx, which would make `no_serve_uploads` entirely nonsensical of a
name.

Serve the files through Django, with an offload for the actual image
response to an internal nginx route.  In development, serve the files
directly in Django.

We do _not_ mark the contents as immutable for caching purposes, since
the path for avatar images is hashed only by their user-id and a salt,
and as such are reused when a user's avatar is updated.
