I would argue that these comments do not add any information that
would not be there already. Having them adds mental overhead, because
one needs to read both the comment and the next line of code first to
understand they say the exact same. I don't find this helpful, but
more distracting.

Deprecate the second argument to Maintenance::error() in favor of a new
Maintenance::fatalError() method. This is intended to make it easier to
review flow control in maintenance scripts.

Swapped some "$var type" to "type $var" or added missing types
before the $var. Changed some other types to match the more common
spelling. Makes beginning of some text in captial.
Also added some missing @param.

Follows-up I1343872de7, Ia533aedf63 and I2df2f80b81.
Also updated usage in text in documentation and the
installer LocalSettingsGenerator.
Most of them were handled by this regex:
- find: (require|include|require_once|include_once)\s*\(\s*(.+?)\s*\)\s*;$
- replace: $1 $2;

Squiz.WhiteSpace.LanguageConstructSpacing:
Language constructs must be followed by a single space;
expected "require_once expression" but found
"require_once(expression)"
It is a keyword (e.g. like `new`, `return` and `print`). As
such the parentheses don't make sense.
Per our code conventions, we use a space after keywords like
these. We appeared to have an unwritten exception for `require`
that doesn't make sense. About 60% of require/include usage
was missing the space and/or had superfluous parentheses.
It is as silly as print("foo") or return("foo"), it works
because keywords have no significance for whitespace between
it and the expression that follows, and since experessions can
be wrapped in parentheses for clarity (e.g. when doing string
concatenation or mathematical operations) the parenthesis
before and after basiclaly just ignored.

* This is useful for avoiding in-progress operations if locking
is not enabled (the journal is updated before file changes).

We can now do this since we finally switched to PHP 5.3 for MW 1.20 and get rid of the silly dirname(__FILE__) stuff :)

* Added flag to bypass read-only checks to the 6 write functions.
* Made backend copy and sync scripts pass in this new flag.
* Also made sync script use doQuickOperations() since its faster.
Change-Id: Iee47f79ed7ab002cfc2d0adb5321c3a8520f971d
* Added FileJournal::getChangeEntries() and FileBackend::getJournal().
* Added a script to sync one file backend from another, using the journal of the later.
* Removed some overzealous exception catching in FileJournal.
