Quick/short security review of Extension:Sentry

Description

The extension's code will change a lot before deployment to production, so it might not be worth a full on review now, but given that Sentry is to deal with stack traces, I figured a quick look is warranted.

Super lame data flow diagram for Sentry: https://docs.google.com/a/wikimedia.org/presentation/d/1kdSdtLFev6r9rirI35n9QUrU9-3J5XgYk00vDJrqISI/edit#slide=id.p

I talked through the privacy aspects with Tgr, and as long as access to the collection server is restricted to start, we should be ok on that.

raven.js doesn't look likely to harm us. @Tgr, who on multimedia is responsible for making sure that any security fixes in upstream will get deployed into our environment?

I'll assume responsibility for that.
