 Application passwords introduced a new rule to `.htaccess` to handle the
 authorization header: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/5bad4e7f8d6cf67fbcea1e7c763cc41bceaa810b/src/wp-includes
 /class-wp-rewrite.php#L1512

 We should make sure that on upgrade, the `.htaccess` file is regenerated.

 I presume this would be done by adding an `upgrade_560()` function, but
 I'm not sure how the db version conditionals are chosen.
