Remove Statistics from core

Updating title, tags and version number based on recent announcement at https://www.drupal.org/about/core/blog/new-drupal-core-branching-scheme-... →

I found another usage in a test, \Drupal\Tests\migrate_drupal\Kernel\Plugin\migrate\DestinationCategoryTest. When the color module was removed from core this test was changed, it was not done as part of the deprecation of the module. Therefore I am adding it here.

The remaining failing tests are update tests.

I've been searching core for references to the statistics module. I found references to in content_translation for migrations. That needs investigation.

What was found about content_translation was resolved in 📌 Move statistics_node_translation_counter to Statistics module Fixed

The failing tests are Update tests as expected.

Although, still needs a release note about .htaccess

Added a release note.

Looks great, only a handful of lines outside of statistics module itself.

Needs to be rebased or have 11.x merged in.

Rebased.

Committed aa1e792 and pushed to 11.x. Thanks!
