Regenerate preview asynchronously

[pmuir]

Once the save is complete, return control to the browser immediately. Start the regeneration, and then update it when complete, e.g. using long poll.

@LightGuard we will need a callback or something when the save has taken place in addition to the current site being regenerated.

Why do we need a callback? Could we not add a button that says "View Site
Preview"? Or maybe just modify the current "Open Preview" button to

1. Check if the new window is open
2. Refresh the /preview/:repo/ URL so the user is back at the top fo the
   site

Would that work for us?

But doesn't the current save button only come back when the site generation is done?

Currently, but we're going to change that.
