Fix bugs in Workbench reader token support
Description
See #1904 for more background. Workbench in master currently supports reader tokens. Right now, when you try to view a Collection with a reader token in a real browser, you get prompted to login. This story encompasses whatever bug fixes are necessary to make it so that you can take a reader token URL and paste it into a stateless browser and see the Collection.

I thought this would be a relatively straightforward problem, but Peter has dug into it and demonstrated that it's actually much larger, because Workbench makes so many API server queries to render most pages. For the immediate case, we just need to get Collection downloads working with only scoped tokens, and we'll make that happen by creating a separate view to accommodate it (#2764). Any small bugs that interfere with that new view will become tasks on that story.
