Rename storage layer objects to be more sensible

This is a recurring conversation so wanted to document some of it.

Some places this was talked about:

* [May 13, 2020](https://matrix.to/#/!XaqDhxuTIlvldquJaV:matrix.org/$KybugO1LibfFZZyuQyhFu0-pl-hLX2wIzwy3XFfaIaM?via=matrix.org&via=vector.modular.im&via=privacytools.io)
* [Jul 30, 2020](https://matrix.to/#/!XaqDhxuTIlvldquJaV:matrix.org/$b2LA02VVC9S_ylz1Hpk58I-rKLmr1UTxHVlsrSd3T4g?via=matrix.org&via=vector.modular.im&via=privacytools.io)
* [Aug 3, 2020](https://matrix.to/#/!XaqDhxuTIlvldquJaV:matrix.org/$s1IAkpxVFJ6knYLunJHEyPZSJhB-KxkgmSbH8JMZPq0?via=matrix.org&via=vector.modular.im&via=privacytools.io)

The current proposal is:

* Rename `synapse.storage.data_stores` to `synapse.storage.databases`
* Rename `Database` to `DatabasePool`

We would still have `DataStore` classes that make up a `database` (e.g. `database.state` or `database.main`).
