Michael Terry cb1bb7fa64 test: switch default test store to the split store
It's long past time that the default test modulestore was Split,
instead of Old Mongo. This commit switches the default store and
fixes some tests that now fail:
- Tests that didn't expect MFE to be enabled (because we don't
  enable MFE for Old Mongo) - opt out of MFE for those
- Tests that hardcoded old key string formats
- Lots of other random little differences

In many places, I didn't spend much time trying to figure out how to
properly fix the test, and instead just set the modulestore to Old
Mongo.

For those tests that I didn't spend time investigating, I've set
the modulestore to TEST_DATA_MONGO_AMNESTY_MODULESTORE - search for
that string to find further work.

Status: Maintenance

Responsibilities
================
The Certificates app is responsible for creating and managing course run certificates, including relevant data models for invalidating certificates and managing the allowlist.

Direction: Move and Extract
===========================
Certificates related functionality is scattered across a number of places and should be better consolidated. Today we have:

* ``lms/djangoapps/certificates``
* ``openedx/core/djangoapps/certificates``
* ``cms/djangoapps/contentstore/views/certificates.py``
* Various front-end static templates in multiple locations

Ideally, we want to extract these into the `credentials service`_, which would be ultimately responsible for Course-Run and Program certificates (and possibly other credentials). Right now, the `credentials service`_ only manages Program certificates.
