Storing the user name or IP in every row in large tables like revision
and logging takes up space and makes operations on these tables slower.
This patch begins the process of moving those into one "actor" table
which other tables can reference with a single integer field.
A subsequent patch will remove the old columns.

It is the job of git and svn to provide this information/metadata.
The form was different, some with short, some with long month name
some with leading zero at the day, some without.
The year is also present in the Copyright clause

Undo traces of a practice we carried over from past projects and
existing examples that is neither universal nor actively encouraged in
the MediaWiki codebase.

This feature flag was added to comply with WMF's schema change policy.
It is no longer needed now that the feature is enabled on WMF sites.
External MW installations will run update.php or manually do DB updates
as required before upgrading MW.

Links generated by the API are now aware of the user's preferred
language and will show documents in that language if available.
To test, log in to mediawiki.org and set your language preference to 'es',
then on an MediaWiki installation with this patch view the generated
expanded API help at `api.php?action=help&recursivesubmodules=1&modules=main`.
Each link to documentation on mediawiki.org should take you to its
translated /es subpage, if one exists.

Mysqli is returning SELECTed ints as strings rather than as ints, I'm
guessing to avoid problems with 64-bit int types on 32-bit systems. PHP
mostly doesn't care, but it causes API JSON output to have strings
instead of ints all over the place.
This also fixes ForeignAPIFile::getUser( 'id' ) returning the user
*name*.

This also adds some new ApiBase::PARAM_* constants to generate more
helpful help, and a method to override the default description message
for the use of ApiDisabled and ApiQueryDisabled.

The format for 'props' was never specified and the list for 'errors' is
impossible to keep updated when considering that many errors come from
MediaWiki backend code and extension hook functions. And since there
doesn't seem to be any real use case for either of these, let's just
kill both of them instead of wasting effort on trying to fix them.
Note that neither getResultProperties nor getPossibleErrors are called
from any extensions in gerrit, and none of the other deprecated methods
are called outside of the implementations of those two methods. Removing
the obsolete methods is left to the maintainers of the extensions, as
keeping them hurts nothing and is needed to maintain compatibility with
earlier versions of MediaWiki.

Which type is used depends on the ApiModuleManager responsible for
the API module. There are two managers, one in ApiMain and one in
ApiQuery. Both contain a list of API modules they instantiate.
Both use $this as the first parameter in the constructors of the
individual modules. There is no other regular way to instantiate the
modules, so we know the type must either be ApiMain or ApiQuery.
The lists don't intersect.
I would have prefered the naming scheme $mainModule for ApiMain
modules and $queryModule for ApiQuery modules but since this
doesn't add much I left the shorter variable names untouched.

Certain applications, such as the generation of PDFs, could use a list
of all non-anonymous contributors to the page (as well as a count of
anonymous contributors) without crawling the output of prop=revisions.
This patch adds a prop module to retrieve this information.
Including the IP addresses of anonymous contributors is not realistically
possible without further schema changes, so that is not done here.
Additionally, revisions with DELETED_USER will be skipped entirely.
