This reverts commit 5f06efb318, which
reverted 9335363789, which makes
the deprecated property AbstractBlock::mReason private.
After 9335363789, AbstractBlock::mReason is obsolete, since the block
reason is now stored as a CommentStoreComment, AbstractBlock::reason.

This reverts commit 9335363789.
Reason for revert: It's full of code accessing AbstractBlock::mReason
out there, see [1]. Also, it was never hard deprecated. While that may
be acceptable under some circumstances, it's definitely not OK to remove
code when there are consumers around. I'd have fixed it right now without
reverting if it were a single repo, but there's just too many.

AbstractBlock::setReason now accepts a string, Message or
CommentStoreComment. The CommentStoreComment is accessed via
AbstractBlock::getReasonComment.
AbstractBlock::getReason returns the reason as a string, with
the language and format consistent with how block reasons were
built before this commit. This method is deprecated, since it
makes assumptions about the language and format needed. The
deprecated mReason property is no longer public.
Doing this (and T227005) will remove the implicit dependency of
BlockManager::getUserBlock on language, which causes a recursion
error if the block is checked before the user has loaded. It also
provides a mechanism for getting the block reason in a language
specified by the caller. (This does not apply to DatabaseBlock
reasons entered via the Special:Block form, which were not and
are still not translatable.)
This commit also updates authentication classes to return the
translated reason.

The main reasons for adding this service layer are:
* It allows error messages to be more consistent, by defining
a set of reportable information that can describe any block
type and is consistently formatted.
* It decouples formatting from the block classes, removing
their dependency on language, for the most part.
The service provides one public method, getMessage, which
returns a Message object whose key and parameters are
determined by the type of block. This should be used instead
of the deprecated AbstractBlock::getPermissionsError and
AbstractBlock::getBlockErrorParams.
Calls to AbstractBlock::getPermissionsError are replaced in
this patch.
