David Fifield 947636ae81 Change to standalone broker.
https://snowflake-reg-test.appspot.com/ for the client (needs domain fronting)
https://snowflake-broker.bamsoftware.com/ for the proxies (no fronting)

Note that fronting to App Engine doesn't currently actually work because
of https://bugs.torproject.org/25804; this commit doesn't change that.
