Description

Once global blocks have been enabled on all WMF wikis and are stable, we should remove the configuration added in T356923: Create a configuration value to control whether global account blocks are enabled as this is intended as a temporary migration configuration value and not something that would be supported long-term.

Acceptance criteria

Remove the wgGlobalBlockingAllowGlobalAccountBlocks config once all WMF wikis are stably performing global account blocks
