db: remove SQLAlchemy Migrate database table

Use Alembic to migrate database away from SQLAlchemy Migrate. This
eliminates the last vestiges of SQLAlchemy Migrate. Since we drop
the Migrate table (and its contents), it is not possible to revert
this database change; however, downgrading to this Alembic schema
revision (9358dc3d6828) will in practice be enough to ensure
compatibility with all previous Kallithea versions.

(As always, the Alembic migration script is committed in the same
revision as the database schema changes.)

.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
