 `install_blog` uses error suppression and `DESCRIBE $table` to detect the
 absence of tables. Error suppression can be removed in favor of `SHOW
 TABLES LIKE $table`, as in the patch on #40694.

 Another source of errors in `install_blog` is the call to
 `get_blogaddress_by_id`. This attempts to read the site's `home` attribute
 which hits the magic `WP_Site->__get`, which ultimately leads to a
 `SELECT` against the non-existent options table.
