6f9de41b4c MediaWiki\Rest\HttpException: Support 3xx codes and wrapped Response
Allow a greater variety of status codes to be handled by
HttpException, including 204 and 304 ("no content" and "not modified")
as well as 301, 302, 303, 304, and 307 (redirects, via a new
RedirectException subclass).  This allows for a greater variety of
"exceptional conditions" to be handled by throwing, avoiding the need
for checking error codes all the way up a deeply nested call stack.

For cases which still aren't covered, we allow wrapping a full
Response object as an exception.  This allows the same basic exception
mechanism to be used, even if sometimes you need a custom status code
or custom headers.

See I800a3fe5160a9d7fc3fddbb445ec61cc5390b14f for a sample use case
from the Parsoid REST handler implementation.
