[PATCH 0/4] RFC: Patchwork 2.2->3.0 migration improvements

[Daniel Axtens]

Larger deployments have noticed that our migrations are a bit suboptimal,
especially on clustered MySQL deployments. Both our larger deployments are
also on 2.2 still.

This series speeds up migrations from ~7-8 mins to 1-1.5 mins for my 558 MB
MariaDB test database. It also does the data migration in chunks which
should make administrators' lives nicer.

It currently breaks postgres/sqlite, but I'm hoping to get some feedback
from larger deployments on whether I'm moving in the right direction here
before I polish it up too much.

Kind regards,
Daniel
