Create a new profile field type, move all existing content of the fields
'icq', 'skype', 'aim', 'yahoo', 'msn' and 'url' in the mdl_user table to
theses new profile fields if needed.
AMOS BEGIN
MOV [aimid,core],[aimid,courseimage,profilefield_social]
MOV [yahooid,core],[yahooid,profilefield_social]
MOV [skypeid,core],[skypeid,profilefield_social]
MOV [icqnumber,core],[icqnumber,profilefield_social]
MOV [msnid,core],[msnid,profilefield_social]
MOV [webpage,core],[webpage,profilefield_social]

The chunk size used by the existing post word/char count calculation
ad-hoc task can now be set as a $CFG parameter. Also improved the way
the ad-hoc task is re-queued and tidied up some redundant code.
The adhoc task run during upgrade will now be requeued until no more
word/char counts require updating. Previously it was only run once,
so only the first 5000 posts would be updated.
Note that this is a very basic conversion without doing any refactoring
to split the tasks up better. That will come in MDL-44734, this is about
being a safe backportable change to give admins better control over the
running of the forum cron task.
