#31410: Add constant for disabling updates

 We host a bunch of sites where the code is managed centrally with git and
 symlinks, making updates a manual task. Having WordPress check for updates
 is therefore pretty pointless in this case (and in the case of #31011 made
 our logs get filled with warnings).

 Unregistering all the update hooks and filtering some other stuff where
 needed works, but is a bit of a hassle to keep track of. Having a single
 constant to completely disable the update system would be great.

 The with-30947 patch is based on 30947.2.diff from SergeyBiryukov in
 #30947 being applied, so it's currently broken for trunk. The other patch
 does the rest.

 I'm not super familiar with the internals, so I've probably missed some
 areas.
