As part of digging into some under-loved code running on hg.mozilla.org, I
discovered that the mechanism for recording user SSH activity so that we
may disable inactive accounts has been broken for quite some time.

Long story short, we backfilled missing activity values from pushlog data
and made some changes that should cause hundreds of previously enabled but
inactive accounts to become disabled sometime in the next 24 hours. I spot
checked the list of accounts that should expire and I didn't see any
obvious oddities. But I can't guarantee the list is perfect.

If you would like to ensure your hg.mozilla.org SSH access (which should
only be needed to `hg push`) remains active, please simply ssh into
hg.mozilla.org to ensure your last activity time is properly recorded. The
server will spew a "No interactive shells allowed here" message and
disconnect. Rest assured, it did record your activity.

If your account is disabled, the server will print a message on next SSH
login with instructions on how to reactivate it.
