These changes were initially made to make it easier to do SECRET_KEY rotations. Along the way, we found it made sense to refractor the code as well. Changes made: - changed get_to_create to create because now the code should only get to this block when a write is necessary - added a lookup for anonymous_user_id. This is to return an existing anonymous_user_id rather than calculating. This will mitigate the results of SECRET_KEY rotation. - Added monitoring to help us make better decisions: should we not sue SECRET_KEY, performance considerations... - put old function behind toggle in case something goes wrong in production with new code - refractoring function structure for better understanding
