 Improvements to refreshing of total_group_count on group membership events

 When group membership status is changed for a user, that user's
 total_group_count meta must be updated. This changeset introduces a number
 of
 improvements to the way this updating is done:

 - Update using an actual queried group count, rather than incrementing.
 This
   ensures that even if the count is off (due to a bug in BP or some other
   plugin), it will be corrected the next time a membership event is
 recorded.
 - Move the total_group_count refreshing further down the stack.
 Previously, the
   updating was happening at various depths: sometimes in the
   bp-groups-functions.php functions, sometimes in the database methods,
 and
   sometimes not at all. By moving the updates so that they directly follow
 the
   database queries, we reduce redundancy and ensure that the group count
 is
   updated in all cases

 This changeset also introduces integration tests for the relevant groups_*
 membership functions and total_group_count.

 Fixes #5018
