    Use Gulp + Browserify + node-sass for building the front-end assets · 7e3bdbde

    This replaces the webassets build for the front-end JavaScript
    and CSS with Gulp + Browserify. webassets continues to be used but
    only to serve the assets, not to generate them or keep
    track of dependencies.
    
     * Use CommonJS for all JS dependency imports rather than relying
       on Window globals. This makes dependencies more explicit
       and avoids the need to specify dependencies explicitly
       in the build tool, since they can be statically analyzed
       via the require graph.
    
     * Remove the webassets custom filters for Browserify and
       CleanCSS.
    
     * Put all generated JS/CSS/font/image assets in
       build/{images,fonts,styles,scripts}
    
     * Replace compass with node-sass + compass-mixins for building
       the SCSS files. We were not relying heavily on compass
       functions, many of them were used only for vendor prefixing
       which is now handled by autoprefixer, so we can remove the
       Ruby/compass dependency and substitute node-sass quite easily.
