* Mailing lists get multiple chains and pipelines. For example, normal
postings go through the `posting_chain` while messages to owners to through
`owners_chain`. The default `built-in` chain is renamed to
`default-posting-chain` while the `built-in` pipeline is renamed
`default-posting-pipeline`.
* Schema changes:
- start_chain -> posting_chain
- pipeline -> posting_pipeline
