NODES.moved_here is an SQLite INTEGER used as a boolean. Most of the
code uses 1 to indicate moved here and NULL to indicate not moved here.
There were a few places that were setting moved_here to 0, I have now
removed those.

I tracked down the places that need to be changed by temporarily adding:

  CHECK (moved_here IS NULL OR moved_here = 1)

to the NODES table definition in wc-metadata.sql. I imagine there is a
cost associated which such a check but it is probably small. Should we
add checks like this permanently? Should we attempt to benchmark the
cost? I guess the cost is only on INSERT/REPLACE/UPDATE and not on
SELECT? Are there other columns that should have CHECKs?
