Re-design forum thread list

Use larger and lighter title font, decrease padding, and use lighter
solid backgrounds instead of gradients. Also, refactor SASS code to
conform better to our new style, including using more specific class
names.

Add labels to forum thread list

A thread will be labeled if it is pinned, if the user is following it,
or if it was authored by a staff member or community TA. This also
slightly changes the color used for community TA labels.

The rendering of the link happens in an event handler, and the
collection's attributes were not getting set properly before the reset

Improve forum sorting and cohort filtering UX

Thread entries now show an activity count that includes the original
post, and only one of the vote count and activity count is displayed
based on the user's selected sort. The sorting and filtering options now
both use a select and are somewhat more verbose, and the visual styling
of the sort/filter bar is updated.
