Establishes basic functionality for viewing conversations in two column
mode, including message area and message list resizing, and maintaining
scroll position.
Various subviews need to be retooled but are more or less still
functional, i.e., new message, message detail, key verification, etc...
This trigger function uses chrome's runtime message passing api, which
traverses between different windows in our runtime, but we only trigger
the updateInbox event from the backgroud page, so we don't need to use
that api, which requires some extra cpu/memory overhead.

As discussed in similar issue there: https://github.com/GoogleChrome/chromedeveditor/issues/1023 - it is not possible to add onClosed event listener on an 'abstract' current window property, it needs to be set on the particular window instance instead.
Before that change, the clean up function was never actually called, because the listener was never properly attached. That was probably the reason of existence for "panel isn't actually open ... and so we try again." code that was executed if the previous window wasn't cleaned up properly (so actually every time). This code is no longer needed, I guess, as the windows are now cleaned up properly.
These collections should always be operating with the same model
instances, so let the inbox reset it self from the same in-memory
cache of conversation models used by the conversation windows.
As a chrome packaged app, we have to keep at least one window open in
order to maintain our websocket connection in the background page.
This change replaces the system window frame with custom buttons in the
inbox header, such that the 'close' button merely hides the window
rather than unloading it.

Appify tabs, windows, browserAction
Port the extension.windows.focus function to new window api and
generalize its error handling in the case where the requested window
does not exist. An error will be passed to the callback.
Port extension.browserAction and rename it to the more generic
extension.onLaunched.
Use of the id option when opening a window ensures that attempting to
open a duplicate window merely focuses the existing window.
Finally, after registration, close the options window and open the
inbox.
Port extension.remove
This reverts commit 31e7d285e3.
This seemed like a nice feature, but the popup bubble isn't very
conducive to nontrivial user inputs, e.g. file inputs.
Fixes#211
Rather than opening the inbox in its own window, let it appear as a
browser action popup by default, but allow promotion to its own window
if requested.
Update unreadCounts per-conversation on incoming messages. Render unread
conversations with font-weigh: bold in the inbox view.
To ensure that the inbox and conversation views remain in sync, the
background page now ensures that the same models objects are used for
both views.
With these changes, message bubbles in the default-sized chat popup are
just wide enough to display the full complement of html5 media player
controls.
Previously the conversation window would query the background page
for a model id and then fetch the conversation. Instead, we can fetch
the conversation before opening the window, which simplifies the front
end scripts and avoids creating multiple copies of the same model.
