primary keys from character strings to integers, and makes corresponding code
changes.
This was prompted by database limitations discovered when trying to make
DocAlias use a m2m document field; with 255 long strings as primary keys for
Document and DocAlias this violated the MySQL database limitations.
Changing the primary keys to integers should also improve efficiency.
Due to the data migrations which create the new integer primary keys and adds
corresponding integer foreign keys matching the previous string foreign keys
in all tables having foreign keys to Document and DocAlias, some of these
migrations take a long time. The total set of migrations are expected to have
a runtime on the order of 2 hours.

DocumentAuthor, rename author field to email and make it optional (for
modeling old email-less submissions), remove the authors many to many
referencing field from Document as it is not really pointing the right
place.
Update the Secretariat tools to show affiliation and country.
Add migration for getting rid of the fake email addresses that the
migration script created some years ago (just set the author email
field to null).

page. Each WG/RG now gets a list with an initial set of rules to
populate the list.
Refine the community list management interface a bit to support the
group lists better - group lists aren't connected to the usual track
icons so need to be able to add/remove individual drafts.
Change the "name contains" rule to support regular expressions to
enable each group to have a default replacement for the previously
implemented "related documents" search. Maintain a materialized view
of the regexp-matched drafts with a call in the submit code to avoid
having to scan all drafts/~1000 group rules all the time.

From a user perspective: Use friendlier URLs for lists. Reuse the
search results table for displaying lists. Simplify the management
pages and improve the search rule UI to help fill in the values and
validating them, instead of just providing a text field. Fixes#1874.
Add an explicit button for adding individual documents. Include all
changes in the document change streams, not just some changes. Fix a
concurrency issue that allows changed documents to escape the search
rules. Don't create an empty list just be logging in.
From a code maintenance perspective: Clean up the models. Replace the
background caching scheme with direct queries. Get rid of a big chunk
of code. Speed up the code that adds track buttons to search results.
Add tests of all community views. Fixes#1422. Also fix some minor
bugs and oddities here and there.
There's still some work to do with respect to integrating the group
lists better.
