Boone Gorges 4ce9db9ce8 In wp_insert_term(), clean up accidental duplicate terms after insert.
In [30056], the UNIQUE index was removed from the 'slug' column of `wp_terms`.
While we have numerous checks in place to avoid the creation of unwanted
duplicate term+term_taxonomy pairs, it's possible that in certain edge cases -
such as during the lag caused by database replication, or a race condition
involving near-simultaneous creation of more than one term - we'll end up
unwittingly inserting two identical rows.

The current changeset minimizes this risk by introducing a failsafe mechanism
into `wp_insert_term()`. After a term and term_taxonomy are INSERTed, we check
to see whether the term just created is a duplicate of an existing term; if so,
we delete the new one and keep the old one. This prevents problems caused by
replication lag, because SELECT queries that take place after an INSERT will
hit the master database; it mitigates race conditions by enforcing that the
term that was created first (ie, the one with the lowest `term_id`) is
always the "canonical" one.
