wordpress: maintain charm, port to xenial and bionic, fix critical deployment issues

This is excellent Matthew. Thanks for moving this forward.

Do you know how to make a promulgation request? It involves adding a post
in the Juju discourse under the Charming category.

Hi Tim,
I have posted a request here: https://discourse.jujucharms.com/t/promulgation-request-for-wordpress-charm/2494

The promulgation request for the wordpress charm has been accepted, and the charm is now known as cs:wordpress-0.

Closing this bug, and also all the other bugs that this release fixed.
