Rewrite file attachment javascript templating.

When uploading file attachments through the web UI, the box shown on the page
would be created from javascript instead of from a django template. The code
that did this wasn't quite at parity with the html that was generated when
loading the page to begin with. Most annoyingly, it didn't have a link to the
review UI (if one existed). It also didn't do any of the new caption stuff that
I added.

The code now uses _.template for the full case, and simplifies the placeholder
case (and fixes it to actually contain a spinner).
- Uploaded a bunch of files, both through the "Add file" dialog and DnD.
- Verified that the "Review" link was correct when there was a review UI.
- Checked that the generated HTML was the same as when reloading the page.
- Commented out the code that replaces the placeholder and verifiend the
  appearance of the spinner.

Let's just test truthiness, in case this ends up normalized to null or something.

I feel like this all belongs in the template. You can do: <% if blah { %> ... <% } …

Same.

Needs to be a var.

    When doing lots of string concatenations in JS, it's best to do:
    
    [
       '...',
       '...'
    ].join('')

    And same comment about concatenation.

    You can do:
    
    <% if blah { %>
    ...
    <% } %>
    
    The nice thing about that is, when we move to require.js, templates like these can be stored in their own template files and we have a nice separation of templates and logic.
