Prevent Alley Users from Appearing On the Site

[kevinfodness]

Description

Occasionally, Alley users set up content on client sites, which means that we can end up appearing in author archives, which isn't ideal.

Use Case

When a site is built by Alley, we should not see Alley users in bylines, author archives, etc.

Acceptance Criteria

• Ensure Alley users (as identified by an email address at one of Alley's domains) do not have author archive pages (they should 404)
• Ensure Byline Manager and Co-Authors Plus profiles linked to Alley users do not have author archives
• Filter author names for traditional authors, Byline Manager, and Co-Authors Plus so that Alley users don't appear as their actual names, but rather a generic "Staff" name
• Allow the list of domains for this feature to be filtered
• Only apply this behavior to production by default, but allow the list of environments to be filtered using values from wp_get_environment_type.
• Add a filter to conditionally enable/disable features by environment, which passes the feature and the environment name, using defaults from the feature (with the typical case of a feature being enabled on all environments) so this can be filtered a high level.

@anubisthejackle how is this coming along? Anything I can do to help?

@kevinfodness I haven't been able to make much progress on it in recent weeks. I had pulled it into the sprint this week but had to bump it out for client work.

The main thing that I need right now is to figure out how to test -- and subsequently fix -- Byline Manager and Co-Authors Plus.
