Title: Remove title, summary and body from editions

This is the third attempt at removing these columns from the editions table.
They were first removed when we added the edition_translations table[1] but
that change had to be reverted[2] when we realised that the removal of the
columns would cause downtime for end users. The second removal attempt[3] came
later but again had to be reverted[4] when we realised that stale ActiveRecord
processes would still be automagically referring to those columns. We
eventually deployed a fix[5] that should mean we can now remove these columns
for good.

This was initially driven by [Story 43568447][6].
