Drop ci_build_trace_sections table and related

Andreas Brandl requested to merge ab/drop-trace-section into master

What does this MR do and why?

This drops two deprecated tables, freeing up 1,170 GB of space on GitLab.com.

  1. Related issue: #337209 (closed)
  2. Code cleaned up already - nothing is using this anymore: !66574 (merged)
  3. Tables have been renamed to have a dep_ prefix
  4. A backup of data on GitLab.com has been taken: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/database-team/team-tasks/-/issues/198
  5. Dropping the table had been prepped in !66674 (closed) a while ago, this is a refresher MR (taken over from https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/verify-stage/-/issues/119#note_715069816)
  6. The table doesn't show activity on GitLab.com (beyond cascading project deletes)
