Summary:
Ref T3775 (discussion here). Ref T2625.
T3775 presents two problems:
# Existing tools which linked to `/differential/active/epriestley/` (that is, put a username in the URL) can't generate search links now.
# Humans can't edit the URL anymore, either.
I think (1) is an actual issue, and this fixes it. I think (2) is pretty fluff, and this doesn't really try to fix it, although it probably improves it.
The fix for (1) is:
- Provide a helper to read a parameter containing either a list of user PHIDs or a list of usernames, so `/?users[]=PHID-USER-xyz` (from a tokenizer) and `/?users=alincoln,htaft` (from an external program) are equivalent inputs.
- Rename all the form parameters to be more digestable (`authorPHIDs` -> `authors`). Almost all of them were in this form already anyway. This just gives us `?users=alincoln` instead of `userPHIDs=alincoln`.
- Inside ApplicationSearch, if a request has no query associated with it but does have query parameters, build a query from the request instead of issuing the user's default query. Basically, this means that `/differential/` runs the default query, while `/differential/?users=x` runs a custom query.

Summary:
Ref T3721. Releeph currently attempts to implement a flexible, field-driven search for branches, but it's building all of its own infrastructure and it ends up heading down some weird paths. In particular, it loads **every** request and then makes calls into fields to filter them. It also tries to be very very general, which isn't really necessary (for example, I think it's reasonable for us to assume that we won't let you disable the "requestor" field).
ApplicationSearch and CustomField provide more scalable approaches to this problem; move search on top of them. The query still ends up doing some filtering in-process, but it's now far more limited in scope and can be denormalized later.
