This removes most of the pre-actor user and user_text columns, and the
$wgActorTableSchemaMigrationStage setting that used to determine
whether the columns were used.
rev_user and rev_user_text remain in the code, as on Wikimedia wikis the
revision table is too large to alter at this time. A future change will
combine that with the removal of rev_comment, rev_content_model, and
rev_content_format (and the addition of rev_comment_id and rev_actor).
ActorMigration's constructor continues to take a $stage parameter, and
continues to have the logic for handling it, for the benefit of
extensions that might need their own migration process. Code using
ActorMigration for accessing the core fields should be updated to use
the new actor fields directly. That will be done for in a followup.

When this was originally written, the plan was to read both the old and
new fields during the transition period, while stopping writes to them
midway through. It turns out that the WHERE conditions to do read-both
correctly are generally not handled well by the database and working
around that would require a lot of complicated code (see what's being
removed from ApiQueryUserContribs here, for example).
We can simplify things greatly by instead having it write both fields
during the transition period, reading from the old for the first part
and the new for the second part, as is being done for MCR.
