This accomplishes two things:
* It removes the need for an additional `channel_name_reservation` table, since `channel.name` now only contains non-null values for active channels, and
* It nicely dovetails with the idea that `null` means an unknown value in SQL-land.

Previously, when a channel (message) was deleted, `hi` would send events to all _connected_ clients to inform them of the deletion, then delete all memory of the channel (message). Any disconnected client, on reconnecting, would not receive the deletion event, and would de-synch with the service. The creation events were also immediately retconned out of the event stream, as well.
With this change, `hi` keeps a record of deleted channels (messages). When replaying events, these records are used to replay the deletion event. After 7 days, the retained data is deleted, both to keep storage under control and to conform to users' expectations that deleted means gone.
To match users' likely intuitions about what deletion does, deleting a channel (message) _does_ immediately delete some of its associated data. Channels' names are blanked, and messages' bodies are also blanked. When the event stream is replayed, the original channel.created (message.sent) event is "tombstoned", with an additional `deleted_at` field to inform clients. The included client does not use this field, at least yet.
The migration is, once again, screamingingly complicated due to sqlite's limited ALTER TABLE … ALTER COLUMN support.
This change also contains capabilities that would allow the API to return 410 Gone for deleted channels or messages, instead of 404. I did experiment with this, but it's tricky to do pervasively, especially since most app-level interfaces return an `Option<Channel>` or `Option<Message>`. Redesigning these to return either `Ok(Channel)` (`Ok(Message)`) or `Err(Error::NotFound)` or `Err(Error::Deleted)` is more work than I wanted to take on for this change, and the utility of 410 Gone responses is not obvious to me. We have other, more pressing API design warts to address.

This is a bit easier to compute, and sets us up nicely for pulling message boot out of the `/api/boot` response entirely.

This will make it much easier to slot in new event types (login events!).

This structure didn't accomplish anything and made certain refactorings harder.

The client now takes an initial snapshot from the response to `/api/boot`, then picks up the event stream at the immediately-successive event to the moment the snapshot was taken.
This commit removes the following unused endpoints:
* `/api/channels` (GET)
* `/api/channels/:channel/messages` (GET)
The information therein is now part of the boot response. We can always add 'em back, but I wanted to clear the deck for designing something more capable, for dealing with client needs.

It is deliberate that the expire() functions do not use them. To avoid races, the transactions must be committed before events get sent, in both cases, which makes them structurally pretty different.

This separates the code that figures out what happened to an entity from the code that represents it to a user, and makes it easier to compute a snapshot at a point in time (for things like bootstrap). It also makes the internal logic a bit easier to follow, since it's easier to tell whether you're working with a point in time or with the whole recorded history.
This hefty.

This is primarily renames and repackagings.

(This is part of a larger reorganization.)
