4/5/26: Works for all tables except TeamMember, which has foreign keys that need special attention.

Fixed the logic to determine if un-anonymized data is being requested.

In "anonymized", now skips anonymizing rows that have ['deprecate', 'do-not-reply', 'donotreply', 'delete'] in their data -- these rows are for testing, or to-be-deleted in production, and were messing up anonymization for the Person.emailPersonal primary key, which needs to be unique.

The uniqueNamesGenerator() library returns random names from a internal dictionary, and can return dupes within a session, so set up a way to guarantee that they are unique, so we don't have primary key errors on update.

There is a lot of logging in this feature, but the feature is rarely used, and the logging gives us a better chance of understanding future data problems via CloudWatch.

Fixed the logic to see if un-anonymized was being requested.
