Depends on D19325. Ref T13120. Ref T12414.
This no longer has any callers in the upstream or in Phacility support libraries, so get rid of it.
This will make modularizing Device transactions significantly easier, since the other transactions are reasonable, normal sorts of transactions.
For existing devices, this leaves some "author edited this object." transactions in the log. I might just leave those since they aren't really hurting anything, or maybe I'll clean them up or hide them later once I have more confidence that these changes are stable.
