Updated dashboard UI for empty list of courses and programs

Updated dashboard UI for empty list of courses and programs

Resolves conflicts between reverts of pattern library test pages and multi-site comprehensive theming, and the re-introduction of pattern library test pages. Fixes a pipeline rendering test which relied on other tests updating assets. The test now ensures that static assets are available before running.

We've already audited this for responsiveness. Just need to turn it on.

The verification workflow assumes that all verified courses will have a
price. Free verified course modes cause a 404 when the user attempts to
enroll or upgrade.

The old code set the output-encoding to None, which means, I want
Unicode strings as output.  This made Mako pass markupsafe objects to
"unicode()", which applied all the escaping.  Then the result would be
given to Django, would would html-escape it again, resulting in
over-escaping.

By setting the output-encoding to utf8, we use filters.encode.utf8
instead, which is aware of Markupsafe, which avoids the over-escaping.

These are developer only pages, so can not be seen in production
environment. On devstack, you can access these pages in LMS and
Studio at:

    /template/ux/reference/pattern-library-test.html

This is the second attempt to enable the Pattern Library. The
first attempt broke Django Templates and didn't work correctly
with right-to-left styling.

TNL-4115. Previously, course updates (which are intended to be posted with
dates, for sorting in the LMS) could be authored in studio with a valid
date, nothing, or a random string as the "date" for the update. As there
is no validation for this in studio, everything succeeded with no warning.

However, the LMS has problems parsing some of these values, and barfs when
loaded by learners.

The fix does two big things:
- gracefully handles invalid dates in LMS. These updates are now treated as
having a date of today, for sorting purposes.
- turns on validation in studio. Now, it is not only impossible to enter
invalid dates in studio, but notifications will draw the course author's
eye if any invalid updates were previously saved.

Test additions for this commit:

Adds:
- unit test for LMS parsing
- Jasmine test to confirm invalid dates cannot be set by the user
    -also adds event to setAndValidate instead of using a global object
- fix for lettuce test
    -It is no longer valid to enter the string "January 1, 2013" as this test
    had been doing. Keyed-in entries must use MM/DD/YY format.
