#4958: Improve UX of visibility setting dialog on registration page

 When a user is changing the visibility setting for profile fields while
 registering (and while editing a profile), the interface doesn't offer
 consistent feedback.

 First, if a user opens the visibility settings dialog and changes to a
 different privacy level, upon closing the dialog, the privacy level text
 isn't updated to show that the user has made a change. Second, if a user
 fails to successfully register (if the passwords don't match, or she
 doesn't fill in a required field), the form 'loses' the user's choices
 upon reload.

 I've attached a patch that adds to buddypress.js to update the privacy
 level text upon closing the dialog and changes the functions
 `bp_get_the_profile_field_visibility_level` and
 `bp_get_the_profile_field_visibility_level_label` in `bp-xprofile-
 template` to respect privacy levels stored in _POST rather than resetting
 to defaults on the registration page.

 Thanks for all the 1.7 goodness!
