 BP Rewrites: start the migration process for the Groups component

 - Add rewrite tags & rules for the Groups directory type and the create
 URLs.
 - Introduce `bp_get_group_url()`/`bp_group_url()` & to retrieve/output a
 Groups single item URL using BP Rewrites.
 - Introduce `bp_get_group_restricted_screens()`,
 `bp_get_group_extension_screens()` & `bp_get_group_screens()` to get
 information about the Groups screens (in particular each screen rewrite
 ID). These functions will ease slug customizations from the BuddyPress URL
 settings tab.
 - Improve the Group creation process making sure it's using BP Rewrites to
 build URLs.
 - Perform easiest replacements for
 `bp_get_group_permalink()`/`bp_group_permalink()` &
 `bp_get_groups_directory_permalink()`/bp_groups_directory_permalink()` in
 favor of `bp_get_group_url()`/`bp_group_url()` &
 `bp_get_groups_directory_url()`/`bp_groups_directory_url()`.
 - Improve code formatting & properly escape single group URLs into
 templates.
 - Update impacted Unit Tests.
