* fix 401-302-401-302-429 loop
* don't logout users on bad form key, just treat the request as unauthenticated
* Handle None/empty case in validate_formkey.
A supplied empty formkey, or the lack of a supplied formkey (None) is not a valid formkey. Handle this inside the function rather than at the call-site.
* Validate as false if no hashstr or string

* titles: use rdrama's title finding code
this fixes a potential DoS in some really weird pages (seems to be a bug with BS4)
we're not parsing arbitrary HTML
in addition we make some nice checks
* unescape title to fix bug from upstream
* fix nameerror
* Do not proxy requests, since no proxy available.
On the upstream, the `proxies` dict was intended to use a local SOCKS
proxy running on port 18080 with the express purpose of masking the
server IP address. TheMotte isn't running behind a reverse proxy, so
this purpose is moot. Additionally, we don't have a proxy running in
Docker nor do we appear to have one on prod, which breaks autotitle
and thumbnailing regardless--not sure it matters for TheMotte's
use case, but both codepaths have been inoperative because of it.
* use gevent to timeout the function to prevent a
second theoretical DoS by sending data rly slowly

The ADMINISTRATORS list contained hardcoded post IDs (in the 30000s)
intended to be used for uploading graphical assets onto a production
instance of the site. This functionality is not needed here, and the
special logic to bypass awards when commenting on those posts was
largely removed in 9d4195a89f.
Removes the following awards / fields on User:
- flairlock
- progressivestack
- bird
- longpost (pizzashill)
- marseyawarded
- rehab
- deflector
- mute
- unmutable
- eye (All-Seeing Eye)
- alt (Alt-Seeing Eye)
Primarily motivated by starting to remove some un-Mottelike cruft
from core commenting/posting routes. Cleared out other inapplicable
awards while in the process.
