Follow-up to #916388: Convert menu links into entities .

Problem/Motivation

The System module is burdened with all kinds of funky stuff, let's continue the work of making it lighter :)

Proposed resolution

Now that we have a new module that deals with menu items, we can move some of the funky stuff to it (e.g. system_admin_menu_block() and friends).

Remaining tasks

Write a patch.

User interface changes

None.

API changes

Menu link will not be a required module anymore and "system" menu blocks will have a new home.

    Searched the logs with git log -S'function system_admin_menu' and as far as I can tell this is outdated. I trust someone to correct the status if that is incorrect.
