Everywhere: Rename {Deprecated => Byte}String

This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

This commit is auto-generated:
  $ xs=$(ack -l \bDeprecatedString\b\|deprecated_string AK Userland \
    Meta Ports Ladybird Tests Kernel)
  $ perl -pie 's/\bDeprecatedString\b/ByteString/g;
    s/deprecated_string/byte_string/g' $xs
  $ clang-format --style=file -i \
    $(git diff --name-only | grep \.cpp\|\.h)
  $ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')

## Clipboard
The clipboard feature works through the Clipboard server, which generally acts as a global storage or three things:
- a `DeprecatedString` mime type,
- a `ByteString` mime type,
- a (potentially large) block of data, shared as an anonymous file,
- a `HashMap<DeprecatedString, DeprecatedString>` of arbitrary metadata, depending on the mime type.
- a `HashMap<ByteString, ByteString>` of arbitrary metadata, depending on the mime type.
See also [`Userland/Libraries/LibGUI/Clipboard.h`](../../../../../Userland/Libraries/LibGUI/Clipboard.h).
## Drag & drop
In contrast to the clipboard, the drag & drop feature works through WindowServer, and a bouquet of data is transmitted:
- a `[UTF8] DeprecatedString` to be displayed while dragging,
- a `HashMap<DeprecatedString, ByteBuffer>` map that contains arbitrary data for a variety of possible mime types,
- a `[UTF8] ByteString` to be displayed while dragging,
- a `HashMap<ByteString, ByteBuffer>` map that contains arbitrary data for a variety of possible mime types,
- a `Gfx::ShareableBitmap` to be displayed while dragging
Drag & drop is most prominently supported by File Manager, Spreadsheet, and Terminal.
