      The server seems to allow renaming into a system.buckets. collection name. This should probably be forbidden since there’s no good reason for it (and several bad ones).

      I had hoped that this would obviate SERVER-77003, but since this wouldn’t allow the `timeseries` options that are needed for proper creation of system.buckets collections, we still need SERVER-77003.
