Summary: If you are running the Aphlict server behind a reverse proxy (such as `nginx`) then there's no need to bind to `0.0.0.0`. Add a `--client-host` flag to `aphlict_server.js` to allow binding to a different hostname. Also changed the other flags for consistency and clarity.
Test Plan: Started, stopped and debug the Aphlict server.

Summary:
Fixes T6559. No more flash, use Websockets. This is less aggressive than the earlier version, and retains more server logic.
- Support "wss".
- Make the client work.
- Remove "notification.user" entirely.
- Seems ok?
Test Plan:
In Safari, Firefox and Chrome, saw the browsers connect. Made a bunch of comments/updates and saw notifications.
Notable holes in the test plan:
- Haven't tested "wss" yet. I'll do this on secure.
- Notifications are //too fast// now, locally. I get them after I hit submit but before the page reloads.
- There are probably some other rough edges, this is a fairly big patch.

Summary: Ref T4324. Ref T5284. This adds server-side support for keeping track of a set of PHIDs that the Aphlict clients have subscribed to. Instead of broadcasting a notification to all clients (after which the clients can poll `/notification/individual` in order to determine whether or not they are interested in the notification), transmit notifications only to clients that have subscribed to a PHID that is relevant to the notification.

Summary:
Currently, the Aphlict server will crash if invalid JSON data is `POST`ed to it. I have fixed this to, instead, return a 400. Also made some minor formatting changes.
Ref T4324. Ref T5284. Also, modify the data structure that is passed around (i.e. `POST`ed to the Aphlict server and broadcast to the Aphlict clients) to include the subscribers. Initially, I figured that we shouldn't expose this information to the clients... however, it is necessary for T4324 that the `AphlictMaster` is able to route a notification to the appropriate clients.

Summary:
Ref T4324. As well as sending the key for the notification, also publish the notification type and a list of subscribers to the Aphlict server.
The idea here is that the Aphlict server passes anything within the `data` key to the clients, whereas other keys (such as `subscribers`) will be used by the server to determine where the notifications should be routed.
Note that these changes don't do anything useful, but are a prerequisite for further work on T4324.

Summary:
Ref T4324. Currently, notifications data is `POST`ed to the Aphlict server in the `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` format. This works fine for simple data but is problematic for nested data. For example:
```lang=php
array(
'data' => array(
'key' => '6021329908492455737',
'type' => 'PhabricatorNotificationAdHocFeedStory',
),
'subscribers' => array(
'PHID-USER-y7ofqm276ejs62yqghge',
),
);
```
Is encoded as `data%5Bkey%5D=6021329908492455737&data%5Btype%5D=PhabricatorNotificationAdHocFeedStory&subscribers%5B0%5D=PHID-USER-y7ofqm276ejs62yqghge`. This string is then (incorrectly) decoded by `querystring.parse` as:
```lang=javascript
> querystring.parse('data%5Bkey%5D=6021329908492455737&data%5Btype%5D=PhabricatorNotificationAdHocFeedStory&subscribers%5B0%5D=PHID-USER-y7ofqm276ejs62yqghge');

Summary:
This is purely a prototype at the moment, but the basic functionality sort of
works.
I'm not sure how far I want to go with this but I think we might be able to get
somewhere without it being gross.
The idea here is to build a notification server WITHOUT using Comet, since Comet
is extremely difficult and complicated.
Instead, I use Flash on the client. LocalConnection allows flash instances to
talk to each other and connect() can be used as a locking primitive. This allows
all the instances to elect a master instance in a race-safe way. The master is
responsible for opening a single connnection to the server.
On the server, I use Node.js since PHP is pretty unsuitable for this task.
See Github Issue #3: https://github.com/facebook/phabricator/issues/3
One thing I need to figure out next is if I can reasonably do SSL/TSL over Flash
(it looks like I can, in theory, with the as3crypto library) or if the server
needs to just send down version information and trigger a separate Ajax call on
the client.
Test Plan:
Created a client pool and connected it to the server, with election and failover
apparently working correctly.
