Modernize URLs to be shorter and consistent
Instead of using http://site/#change,1234 we now use a slightly more
common looking http://site/#/c/1234 URL to link to a change. It
is also quite a bit shorter than the old format, using up less space
in the address bar.
Files within a patch set are now denoted below the change, as in
http://site/#/c/1234/1/src/module/foo.c making it easier to jump
directly to a specific file, or to just see the structure of the
current view.
Whenever possible the old URLs continue to work by redirecting
to the equivalent new URL. We plan to keep the old URLs alive,
as many issue tracking systems have direct links based on the old
URL format and these links should not be invalidated.
This change also fixes the dynamic redirects of http://site/1234
and http://site/r/deadbeef to jump directly to the corresponding
change if there is exactly one possible URL. This avoids the ugly
interim redirect to http://site/#/q/1234,n,z when the server can
compute what the correct location should be on its own.
Entities that have multiple views suffix the URL with ",view-name"
to indicate which view the user wants to see. For files the default
view is the side-by-side view and does not have a suffix, while the
unified patch view has a suffix of ",unified", for example:
http://site/#/c/1234/1/src/module/foo.c,unified.
Project admin panels use a similar view suffix to denote which of
the tabs on the left menu is currently open, with the main info tab
being the default with no suffix.
