 /* MIGRATION FOR ADMIN INTERFACE
+ *
+ * This migration is special since it takes into account that
+ * the database can be setup already but also may not be.
+ * Therefore you will find all `CREATE TABLE` statements with
+ * a `IF NOT EXISTS`, all `INSERT` with an `IGNORE` and in the
+ * downgrade function all `DROP TABLE` with a `IF EXISTS`.
+ * This ensures compatibility for existing or non-existing
+ * databases.
