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: Active

Responsibilities
================
The user_api app is currently a catch all that is used to provide various apis that are related to the user and also to features within the platform.

Intended responsibility: To manage user profile and general account information and to provide APIs to do so easily. This includes the following features: user preference, user profile, user retirement, and account activation/deactivation.

Direction: Decompose
===============
Currently this app is a catch all for many user related information even when that information should really belong in a different app.  If you are building a feature and need to provide information about a user within the context of your feature, you should localize that API to your feature and make your assumptions about what user information you need clear.

For example authentication related APIs have already been moved to the user_authn django app.
