Title: [#76656336] Upgrade to Kibana3 c/o kibana-rack

Use a project called kibana-rack to provide us Kibana3 in the same way that
we ran Kibana2, protected by signon.

This appears to Just Work. The one significant difference is that this app
is now also responsible for reverse proxying access Elasticsearch for a
handful of methods and endpoints:

I don't think that's a big risk though, since it's:

- limited to people with production access
- a reasonbly limited number of methods/endpoints
- a separate ES cluster
