* user_profiles - `location`
* users - `date_of_birth`
* topics - `pinned_at`, `pinned_until`, `pinned_globally`
This also include changes to correctly import PMs. Currently PM topics
are skipped because of a check in `import_users` step which requires `category_id`
to be present.
This SQL tries to insert as much data as possible into the `user_stats` table by either calculating or by approximating stats based on existing. It also fixes an error in the calculation of `reply_count`which mistakenly contained all posts, not just replies.
This change also disables some steps in the `import:ensure_consistency` rake task by setting the `SKIP_USER_STATS` env variable. Otherwise, the rake task will overwrite the calculated data in the `user_stats` table with inaccurate data. I'm not changing or removing the logic from the rake task yet because other bulk import scripts seem to depend on it.

* FEATURE: Allow `[mention]` placeholder to reference users by"id" or "name" (username)
* FEATURE: Support `[quote]` placeholders in posts
* FEATURE: Support `[link]` placeholders in posts
* FEATURE: Support all kinds of permalinks and remove support for `old_relative_url`
