AO3-4313: Chapter by Chapter mode gives 500 error when a work's chapters are reordered to make a draft chapter the first chapter

AO3-4728: Deleting a subscribable object doesn't always destroy its associations, causing subscription pages to throw an Error 500
More info: We had a pull requested workaround that added a rescue to the index and attempts to troubleshoot a user's subscriptions if the page errors, but we'd really prefer to fix the root of the problem.

AO3-5601: Use download writer to create HTML files included in deleted work emails

AO3-6013: Record date of wrangler's last wrangling activity
More info: This would help with Tag Wrangling supervisors' workloads.

AO3-6156: Allow admins to edit user profiles
More info: This is best worked on by official volunteers, as it is likely to require coordination with another committee and access to sensitive information.

These issues have been resolved and deployed 🎉

AO3-2380: Autocomplete tag suggestions should not rely on user input matching the tag's diacritics, e.g. A should return results for  and vice versa

More info: If an anonymous or unrevealed work has translations or remixes, the work will be listed on its creator's Related Works page, breaking anonymity.

AO3-5497: Add URL parameter to bypass TOS prompt
More info: This will require some coordination with Systems and Docs to deploy, but it's something we'd like to do in the near future. The code change itself should be fairly low difficulty.

More info: This will be less important, but still helpful, if AO3-6165 is implemented first.

AO3-6000: Rename fields on guest comment form to reduce chances of browser autofilling non-fannish names
