Max Goodman 482e8644d8 Fire a pixel for UI flow tracking of sub/unsubscribe.

This will allow us to collect information about how users found
subreddits that they subscribe to. We can use this information to test
the effectiveness of new ways of discovering and subscribing to
subreddits.

Specifically, when the subscribe button is clicked, for the current page
and previous page: the URL, referrer URL, and the type of UI element
clicked are sent. We'll use this to answer questions like:

 * "did clicking on gizmo A lead to users subscribing to subreddit B?"
 * "why did we see a spike in subscriptions to subreddit X today?"
