 Currently, in the {{{wp_sitemeta}}} table, there is an option named
 {{{allowed_themes}}} which specifies the themes that users are allowed to
 use.

 However, the values stored in this option are that of the theme's name as
 it appears to users, e.g. "!LiquidCard" or "!WordPress Classic".

 I believe, instead, the option should store the directory names as the
 allowed themes, e.g. "liquidcard-20" or "classic".

 This is partly because this is the same way the user's theme preference is
 stored. Also, it is partly because if a theme is renamed (like how I
 renamed the "!WordPress mu Default" theme to "!WordPress Default" then
 there were two "!WordPress Default" themes in separate directories) it
 guarantees that it's going to be mutually exclusive. I could also rename a
 theme for grammar reasons and it wouldn't annoyingly disable itself, as I
 wouldn't change the directory name.
