Replace the usage of AccountGeneralPreferences with a different class
in extension API package.
To support live migration, the upgrade is done in two steps:
* phase 1 (this change):
o Always write to both git and db
o Introduce new configuration option to indicate whether to read from
git or db, initially set to read from db
o First binary update: some servers are reading/writing just the db;
some servers are additionally writing to git
o After first update: all servers are reading from the db, writing to
both
o Batch copy data from db to git (only related to non open source
Gerrit version)
o Update all servers to read from git. During the update, some will
still be reading from the db; that's ok, because everybody is
writing to git
o OutgoingEmail class is retrieving copy_self_on_email preference
always form the database (by getting AccountGlobalPreferences from
the account cache). This is OK, because all servers are writing to
the database
* phase 2 (next change):
o Bump database version, migrate the data from db to git, delete the
entity (and the flag) from the code and update the servers.

Gerrit Code Review
Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.
Objective
Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer.
Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer.
