Adding in missing keys & indexes

Bug 1174623 For sites that have been upgraded from version 1.0 there are
some missing constraints and indexes on the artefact_access_usr,
artefact_access_role, artefact_attachment, group, grouptype_roles
and view_autocreate_grouptype tables.

Also some fields need to be adjusted to match the referenced field in
another table so that they can be used as a foreign key

Title:
  Correct schema drift during 1.0 -> 1.8 upgrades

Bug description:
  We seem to get a lot of bug reports on the forum from people having
  issues after upgrading from pre-1.5 Mahara instances up to the latest.
  It seems that the upgrade scripts do not generate a database schema
  which is consistent with what you'd get from a clean 1.7 installation.

  If we want people to update to the latest version of Mahara (and we
  do!) then we need to make sure that the upgrade process works
  properly. So, we should test the upgrade process from each of the old
  versions of Mahara into master, and if it doesn't produce exactly the
  same DB schema as a fresh install, we need to correct the master
  upgrade scripts to solve this.

  Of course, there's also the matter of data in those tables getting
  messed up, but that's harder to recognize and fix. We could test for
  it partway, by making sure we upgrade a non-empty Mahara instance
  (something with at least a few users, pages, institutions, auth
  methods, etc).

  It might also be a good idea to add a tool that compares the schema
  against all of the install.xml files, so that users can tell whether
  they have a problem or not. Not worth writing one from scratch, but
  Moodle 2 has a script for copying a database, and one of its steps is
  to check the schema against all the XMLDB files, so we may be able to
  use that.
