 Improve the migration tool that converts old non-multisite signups to
 post-2.0 system

 This refactoring involves a number of improvements:

 - Old signups are identified as those users with user_status=2, instead of
   those users with an 'activation_key' usermeta value. Use of the latter
   technique caused problems with upgrades when plugins had interfered in
 the
   normal BuddyPress registration flow in such a way as to retain the
 activation
   key on activated accounts. user_status=2 is a more reliable technique.
 - Querying by user_status=2 means that the get_users() query does not have
 to
   include all usermeta, which makes for a more performant query on large
 sites.
 - The migration routine has been broken out into a separate function
   bp_members_migrate_signups(), and unit tests have been written for it.
 - Activation keys are now regenerated for migrated users who did not have
 an
   existing key in usermeta for some reason.

 Fixes #5553
