Actually, that looks suspiciously familiar, and looking at my
LocalSettings.php, $wgDBmwschema *is* present. I never set it; it's a
default under the "Postgres specific settings" block and has been carried
over from install to install for years. (I have no idea how old that is; I
probably first installed MediaWiki back in 2008, maybe?) I'll try removing
that and see if that works.

$wgDBmwschema may need to be removed from or corrected in
LocalSettings.php
It's also mentioned here :

- $wgDBmwschema

affects all database types. Old MediaWiki versions were setting this to
'mediawiki' during the installer, which may cause errors during the
upgrade
when your database is not PostgreSQL or MSSQL. In that case, remove this
setting from LocalSettings.php.
