Update the tests around static_file code to use byte streams instead of
string streams for generating static content. This is a fix to get
these tests passing on python 3.
This is similar to use_read_replica_if_available(),
but it just returns either 'read_replica' or
'default', for use with the Django ORM using()
method. Syntactically, it fits nicer with queryset
method-call chains.
This is the first in a series of commits to create
a Python API for the LMS program_enrollments app.
We do some general refactoring, renaming, and clean-up
in order to move toward the creation of that API.

- The fields need to be unicode not bytes. In python 2 it was auto
converting.
- The static url base has been allowed to be a unicode string for a
while.
This reverts commit 3d2617983b.
The change was not quite right because the method six provides needs to
have `self` be passed in as well. See the docs here:
https://six.readthedocs.io/#unittest-assertions
Reverting for now and we can fix it in smaller chunks later.
* Update Financial Assistance logic
Use the zendesk proxy app instead of the unsupported zendesk library.
* Move to pre-fetching the group IDs.
Rather than making extra requests to zendesk to list all groups and find
a specific group ID. Just make a pre-filled list of group IDs for the
groups we care about. When a group name is passed in, it is checked
against this list and the ticket is created in the correct group so the
right people can respond to it.
* Remove old performance tests that we haven't been running.
As far as I can tell, these tests to capture HAR files were created 5
years ago and not being run as a part of our suite? They capture HAR
data that we do nothing with so even if they were running we should
remove them until we're ready to care about consuming this kind of
information.
* Update password test unicode string.
* Add ugettext translation helper function.
* Fix lambda syntax that is not valid in python 3.
* Fix ur raw strings which his not valid in python 3
* Use edx_six.get_gettext instead of ugettext.
* Fix a few other encoding issues.
* Don't use old form of sorted funciton.
This form which uses a 'cmp' method is not available in python 3.
