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.

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.

API was using SVN's version keyword which GIT does not support.
All related methods were either removed, or for those that
could have been used from extensions, emptied out.
api.php?version now shows unrecognized param warning.

Doxygen choke on text enclosed by '<' and '>' since it tries to
interpret them as HTML or XML elements. This patch adds double quotes
in includes/api/*.php files around the two following strings:
<Firstname>.<Lastname>@gmail.com
<Firstname><Lastname>@gmail.com
Which becomes:
"<Firstname>.<Lastname>@gmail.com"
"<Firstname><Lastname>@gmail.com"
Tested locally, it prevents doxygen 1.8.0 related warnings.

It's a parctice that dates back to 2006 when the API was first written, and frankly isn't covered by the coding conventions. Same thing with the docblocks, they're all copypasted with some bits changed and don't even make sense if you look at them in the genereated code docs.
I don't feel that any of us depend on this anymore (get a better IDE), so in the inerest of consistancy it's time we said goodbye to it.

the rest of MW on principle, but I'm not gonna bother myself." --Roan

If you're seeing this commit in blames, tell your blame tool to ignore
whitespace, e.g., git blame -w or svn blame -x -w.
* Move export/exportnowrap handling code out of the if(count($pages)) branch
* Add an error fallback to ApiFormatRaw (exportnowrap uses the XML formatter for errors), since Raw doesn't know how to format errors
* Accessed through the export and exportnowrap parameters added to action=query
* To facilitate &exportnowrap, add ApiFormatRaw, a formatter that just spits out its input without any formatting (not accessible through &format= of course)
* Fix up the action=query description message to reflect the deprecation of query.php
