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 :)

There's little point reading a row from the db if rev_parent_id != null, as the parent id has already been populated.
Added this as an extra condition, filtering on this after limiting to a relatively small batch should be ok (rev_parent_id isn't indexed)

* Reduce some duplication
* Prefix skipped steps with "..." per updater convention
* Make PopulateLogUsertext, PopulateLogSearch and PopulateParentId use LoggedUpdateMaintenance -- now they will properly log when there was "Nothing to do" and we can skip the clutter on future update runs
* Docs, etc.
Until now, we relied on setting MW_NO_SETUP which was a) hacky, b) irreversable, and c) likely to be forgotten if you didn't use one of the wrappers like runChild().
Instead, move the freaky magic to doMaintenance and have *it* check if it's in a specific call stack that indicates this is being run from the file scope and should be executed. Rename DO_MAINTENANCE to RUN_MAINTENANCE_IF_MAIN so it's nice and clear what magic happens behind the require_once().
* Docs have been updated to indicate the standard on how to write maintenance scripts (MW.org docs will follow) Have ported vast majority of maintenance scripts to new format. Remaining ones (mostly FiveUpgrade-related) are a bit more tricky. commandLine.inc is untouched for now. Many have gotten code-style updates as well. Deleted .inc files were only used by their .php counterparts, and have been merged into single files.
* (bug 11867) Lock error on redirect table when running orphans.php
* (bug 16322) Allow maintenance scripts to accept DB user/pass over input or params
* (bug 18566) Maintenance script to un/protect pages
* initStats overhaul, now uses class SiteStatsInit. Also fixes bug 18930
* (bug 16322) Allow maint scripts to accept DB user/pass over input or params if no AdminSettings.php
* (bug 18768) Remove AdminSettings.php from MediaWiki core
* (bug 19157) createAndPromote error on bad password
* (bug 14201) Create AdminSettings.php during wiki installation, in the same way as LocalSettings.php
* Introduce new Maintenance class framework and port a good number of scripts over; the ones that are left are a little more complicated. Read the docs.
* Not deleting "unused" files yet, don't want to break everything at once :)
Was running a command-line entry point from the middle of an updater, which is bad bad bad -- will kill the web installer and may fail on command-line updates, depending on circumstances.
