This is still slow in some cases, despite #2723, so this information
should give useful data about how it could be optimized more.
This also adds some abstraction around getting the tracer, just to
follow the advice in the OpenTelemetry documentation not to use __name__
directly to set the tracer name. The advice is ignored in most of their
examples, so it probably doesn't matter, but IDK, seems reasonable to
try to follow it.

This wasn't a problem in the past, since we only enabled automatic
instrumentation when this was set up, but it does cause errors when
trying to add manual instrumentation.
In most cases, we want to return back to where we came from after
performing an action. It's not safe to return to an arbitrary referer,
so this streamlines using the util validator to verify the redirect and
fall back on regular redirect params if the referer is outside our
domain.
Many of these environment variables were probably not actually usable,
since they would be strings if set in the env file. Using the
typecasting functions fixes this, and generally shows the intention of
the code more clearly.
Splitting this into five separate queries avoids the large join that
prevents us from using indexes, and requires materializing to disk.
Fixes: #2157 (hopefully)
By default, Django doesn't run any context processors for server errors,
to make the error path as simple as possible. However, this has the
downside that our template does not load correctly. To fix this, I added
a custom 500 error handler, which will run the context processor.
Fixes: #2736
The queries as they previously existed required joining together 12
different tables, which is extremely expensive. Splitting it into four
queries means that the individual queries can effectively use the
indexes we have, and should be very fast no matter how many statuses are
in the database.
Removing the .distinct() call is fine, since we're adding them to a set
in Redis anyways, which will take care of the duplicates.
It's a bit ugly that we now make four separate calls to Redis (this
might result in things being slightly slower in cases where there are an
extremely small number of statuses), but doing things differently would
result in significantly more surgery to the existing code, so I've opted
to avoid that for the moment.
Fixes: #2725
