autocomplete: use select2 when selecting owner of repos and PRs

This is a minimal change to SimpleUserAutoComplete, inspired by Dominik Ruf.

The UX is slightly different than before, with select2 putting up an extra
input field, already before typing anything.

We use minimumInputLength 1 to get the same behaviour as before and avoid
displaying all users in a list. This field will always have an old value and
the placeholder is thus never used, but we show it instead of the default
"Please enter 1 or more character" message.

The initSelection iteration is not pretty, but no more complex than what
happens when filtering the user list, and it has the advantage of giving a nice
name/gravatar display of the current user.

.. _statistics:

=====================
Repository statistics
=====================

Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the
repository ``Settings`` page.

The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.

When Celery is disabled:

  On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
  added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
  visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.

  Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
  repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
  updating its statistics cache.

When Celery is enabled:

  On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
  execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until
  all commits are parsed. Each task parses 250 commits, then launches a new
  task.
