Switch data storage over to MongoDB.
Review Request #7235 — Created April 21, 2015 and submitted
As sonar gets more complicated, it's no longer feasible to manually maintain a
big JSON file to store all the data. This change swaps that out in favor of
MongoDB, hosted via a heroku add-on.The schema itself is currently identical to what I was using in students.json,
so there's very little to change on the front-end. The only difference is that
there's less depth to get to the actual students, since I removed the whole
top-level "term" nonsense.The nice thing about this is that it will now be very easy to add lots of
functionality that requires the web server to be able to write data (such as
having students submit their status reports directly).
Verified that everything still loaded correctly.

Why mongodbURL instead of mongodbURI ? |

This doesn't seem to actually use app. |

This is the exact same code as in bin/load-slack-users. Can we refactor this out into somewhere both modules can use … |

Is there ever a case where we will be initializing mongoDB but not the schema (assuming the connection is successful) … |

A few refactory nits, but it looks good to me!

If not, why don't we include this in the promise resolving function in
initMongodb?
