Database migrations


- Populate missing ``TestCase.text`` history.
  In version 6.5 the ``TestCase`` model was updated to store the text
  into a single field called ``text`` instead of 4 separate fields.
  During that migration historical records were updated to have
  the new ``text`` field but values were not properly assigned.

  The "effect" of this is that in TestCaseRun records you were not
  able to see the actual text b/c it was None.

  This change ammends ``0006_merge_text_field_into_testcase_model`` for
  installations which have not yet migrated to 6.5 or later. We also
  provide the data-only migration ``0009_populate_missing_text_history``
  which will inspect the current state of the DB and copy the text to
  the last historical record.


Removed functionality

  • Remove legacy reports. Closes
    Issue #657 <https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/657>_

  • Remove "Save & Continue" functionality from TestCase edit page

  • Renamed API methods:

    • TestCaseRun.add_log() -> TestCaseRun.add_link()
    • TestCaseRun.remove_log() -> TestCaseRun.remove_link()
    • TestCaseRun.get_logs() -> TestCaseRun.get_links()

    These methods work with URL links, which can be added or removed to
    test case runs.
