TalkPageManager::getTalkpageManager can create user

Description

TalkPageManager::getTalkpageManager() has a name that doesn't exactly suggest it'll write to the database, but it lazy-creates and promotes a user. I think it would be better to do this from update.php or some other sort of maintenance script.
