Problem/Motivation
#2168011: Remove all 7.x to 8.x update hooks and disallow updates from the previous major version prevents a site builder from directly upgrading a pre-8.x site to 8.x.
Given that prevention, there are tools in 8.x that we can remove and code that we can clean up that would have supported a 7.x to 8.x migration.
Proposed resolution
Move the functionality of the /core/scripts/dump-database-d*.sh and generate-d*-content.sh scripts into the in-development migrate module code.
User interface changes
None.
API changes
None.

chx commentedWe don't need the generate scripts -- we generate our data manually, it's not something we had time for before but we now test migration by migration and try to test as much as we can. However, the dump scripts are still used.
