Summary:
Fixes T3661. Ref T3718. This makes Releeph custom fields extend PhabricatorCustomField so we can start moving over other pieces of infrastructure (rendering, storage, etc) to run through the same pathways. It's roughly the minimum amount of work required to be able to move forward.
NOTE: This removes per-project custom field selectors. Fields are now configured for an entire install. My understanding is that Facebook does not use this feature, and modern field infrastructure has moved away from selectors.
Test Plan: Viewed and edited projects, branches, and requests in Releeph. Grepped for removed config. Grepped for `field_selector`.

Summary:
Ref T1702. Ref T3718. There are a couple of things going on here:
**PhabricatorCustomFieldList**: I added `PhabricatorCustomFieldList`, which is just a convenience class for dealing with lists of fields. Often, current field code does something like this inline in a Controller:
foreach ($fields as $field) {
// do some junk
}
Often, that junk has some slightly subtle implications. Move all of it to `$list->doSomeJunk()` methods (like `appendFieldsToForm()`, `loadFieldsFromStorage()`) to reduce code duplication and prevent errors. This additionally moves an existing list-convenience method there, out of `PhabricatorPropertyListView`.
**PhabricatorUserConfiguredCustomFieldStorage**: Adds `PhabricatorUserConfiguredCustomFieldStorage` for storing custom field data (like "ICQ Handle", "Phone Number", "Desk", "Favorite Flower", etc).
**Configuration-Driven Custom Fields**: Previously, I was thinking about doing these with interfaces, but as I thought about it more I started to dislike that approach. Instead, I built proxies into `PhabricatorCustomField`. Basically, this means that fields (like a custom, configuration-driven "Favorite Flower" field) can just use some other Field to actually provide their implementation (like a "standard" field which knows how to render text areas). The previous approach would have involed subclasssing the "standard" field and implementing an interface, but that would mean that every application would have at least two "base" fields and generally just seemed bleh as I worked through it.
The cost of this approach is that we need a bunch of `proxy` junk in the base class, but that's a one-time cost and I think it simplifies all the implementations and makes them a lot less magical (e.g., all of the custom fields now extend the right base field classes).
**Fixed Some Bugs**: Some of this code hadn't really been run yet and had minor bugs.

Summary:
Ref T1703. Drive "user since" with a custom field and make the other fields render into a property list.
Users can make their profiles a little more personal/obnoxious now.
Also delete a bunch of code.

Summary:
Adds a profile edit controller (with just one field and on links to it) that uses ApplicationTransactions and CustomField.
{F45617}
My plan is to move the other profile fields to this interface and get rid of Settings -> Profile. Basically, these will be "settings":
- Sex
- Language
- Timezone
These will be "profile":
- Real Name
- Title
- Blurb
- Profile Image (but I'm going to put this on a separate UI)
- Other custom fields
Test Plan: Edited my realname using the new interface.

Provide tighter integration between ApplicationTransactions and CustomField. Basically, I'm just trying to get all the shared stuff into the base implementation.

Summary:
Ref T1703. We have currently have two custom field implementations (Maniphest, Differential) and are about to add a third (User, see D6122). I'd like to generalize custom fields before doing a third implementation, so we don't back ourselves into the ApplicationTransactions corner we have with Maniphest/Differential/Audit.
For the most part, the existing custom fields work well and can be directly generalized. There are three specific things I want to improve, though:
- Integration with ApplicationSearch: Custom fields aren't indexable. ApplicationSearch is now online and seems stable and good. D5278 provides a template for a backend which can integrate with ApplicationSearch, and ApplicationSearch solves many of the other UI problems implied by exposing custom fields into search (principally, giant pages full of query fields). Generally, I want to provide stronger builtin integration between custom fields and ApplicationSearch.
- Integration with ApplicationTransactions: Likewise, custom fields should support more native integrations with ApplicationTransactions, which are also online and seem stable and well designed.
- Selection and sorting: Selecting and sorting custom fields is a huge mess right now. I want to move this into config now that we have the UI to support it, and move away from requiring users to subclass a ton of stuff just to add a field.
For ApplicationSearch, I've adopted and generalized D5278.
For ApplicationTransactions, I haven't made any specific affordances yet.
For selection and sorting, I've partially implemented config-based selection and sorting. It will work like this:
- We add a new configuration value, like `differential.fields`. In the UI, this is a draggable list of supported fields. Fields can be reordered, and most fields can be disabled.
- We load every avialable field to populate this list. New fields will appear at the bottom.
- There are two downsides to this approach:
- If we add fields in the upstream at a later date, they will appear at the end of the list if an install has customized list order or disabled fields, even if we insert them elsewhere in the upstream.
- If we reorder fields in the upstream, the reordering will not be reflected in install which have customized the order/availability.
- I think these are both acceptable costs. We only incur them if an admin edits this config, which implies they'll know how to fix it if they want to.
- We can fix both of these problems with a straightforward configuration migration if we want to bother.
- There are numerous upsides to this approach:
- We can delete a bunch of code and replace it with simple configuration.
- In general, we don't need the "selector" classes anymore.
- Users can enable available-but-disabled fields with one click.
- Users can add fields by putting their implementations in `src/extensions/` with zero subclassing or libphutil stuff.
- Generally, it's super easy for users to understand.
This doesn't actually do anything yet and will probably see some adjustments before anything starts running it.
Test Plan: Static checks only, this code isn't reachable yet.
