Query "hot" page from Front page #18

Whoops -- we got new, controversial, and top, but not "hot", which is the default view!

It turns out that we should be querying the "all" subreddit rather than the front page -- which returns the per-user customized page (which will be meaningless). But the "all" subreddit in praw fails when you query basic information, so rather than modifying the subreddit querying code, we should refactor the front_page controllers.
