handle m.room.aliases for id<->alias mapping; remove local_storage map; stop local echo flickering by removing opacity transition for now; implement /join

Added a captcha config to the HS, to enable registration captcha checking and for the recaptcha private key.

Modified matrixService.register to specify if captcha results should be sent with the registration request. This is toggleable via useCaptcha in register-controller.

fix the copyright holder from matrix.org to OpenMarket Ltd, as matrix.org hasn't been incorporated in time for launch.

Do not define power level limits in setUserPowerLevel. Update the function to be used as a resetUserPowerLevel

Represent user power level in a room by a red bar at the bottom of his avatar image. The width of this bar depends on the power level.

change the world: make the default matrix API URL prefix /_matrix rather than /matrix to make it easier for existing websites to mount a HS in their namespace without collisions.

 - add a simple CSS template across the app for navigation & cosmetics
 - split login into login & register, and totally reskin it
 - restructure room CSS to play nicely with it
 - implement basis 1:1 chat from user pages
 - disable autofocus on iOS to improve UX

Change call signalling messages to be their own types of room events rather than room messages with different msgtypes: room messages should be things that the client can display as a unit message to the user.

Added a timeout(40s) to $http stream requests (/events) in order to be notified by an error when there is a network issue. Thus, we can retry with a new request.

Renamed /rooms to /createRoom. Removed ability to PUT raw room IDs, and removed tests which tested that. Updated cmdclient and webclient.

Removed MessageRestServlet, use RoomSendEventRestServlet instead. Updated cmdclient, tests and webclient. All appears to work.

Renaming: /im/sync >> /initialSync. /rooms/$roomid/members/list >> /rooms/$roomid/members. /rooms$roomid/messages/list >> /room/$roomid/messages. Updated cmdclient, tests and webclient.

Adjusted webclient to use new state paths. Updated membership msg template to actually show the person invited. Factored out common membership functions in matrix service.
