refactor: Completely remove Blockstore (#34739)

Browse Source 
Blockstore and all of its (experimental) functionality has been replaced with
openedx-learning, aka "Learning Core". This commit uninstalls the now-unused
openedx-blockstore package and removes all dangling references to it.

Note: This also removes the `copy_library_from_v1_to_v2` management command,
which has been broken ever since we switched from Blockstore to Learning Core.

@@ -124,7 +124,7 @@ Here are the different integration points that python plugins can use:
- By default, the registration page for each instance of Open edX has fields that ask for information such as a user’s name, country, and highest level of education completed. You can add custom fields to the registration page for your own Open edX instance. These fields can be different types, including text entry fields and drop-down lists. See `Adding Custom Fields to the Registration Page`_.
* - Learning Context (``openedx.learning_context``)
- Trial, Limited
- A "Learning Context" is a course, a library, a program, a blog, an external site, or some other collection of content where learning happens. If you are trying to build a totally new learning experience that's not a type of course, you may need to implement a new learning context. Learning contexts are a new abstraction and are only supported in the nascent Blockstore-based XBlock runtime. Since existing courses use modulestore instead of Blockstore, they are not yet implemented as learning contexts. However, Blockstore-based content libraries are. See |learning_context.py|_ to learn more.

* - User partition scheme (``openedx.user_partition_scheme`` and ``openedx.dynamic_partition_generator``)
- Unknown, Stable
- A user partition scheme is a named way for dividing users in a course into groups, usually to show different content to different users or to run experiments. Partitions may be added to a course manually, or automatically added by a "dynamic partition generator." The core platform includes partition scheme plugins like ``random``, ``cohort``, and ``enrollment_track``. See the |UserPartition docstring|_ to learn more.
