 Users: Introduce the concept of a large site in order to speed up the
 Users screen when there are many users.

 Calling the `count_users()` function is expensive, regardless of the
 counting strategy that's used, and it gets
 slower the more users there are on a site. In order to speed up the Users
 screen in the admin area, calling
 `count_users()` can be avoided entirely while still displaying the total
 count for users.

 This introduces some new functions:

 * `wp_is_large_user_count()`
 * `wp_get_active_user_count()`
 * `wp_update_active_user_count()`

 A corresponding `wp_is_large_user_count` filter is also introduced.
