The config is currently unused in some classes, but this is okay since
it might be used in the future.

From in-person code review with Amir:
* getConnectionRef() has been deprecated in favor of getConnection()
* 'watchlist' query group no longer exists (T263127)
* Since this simplifies things, we can remove our wrapper methods

From in-person code review with Amir: using tableExists() is a bad
idea, because the table might not consistently exists on all replicas.
It's better to have a config option despite the inconvenience.
