This solution is somewhat imperfect, as the logic being added here to
MediaWikiTitleCodec really belongs in the parser. However, given the
current state of this code, this is the cleanest possible solution at
the moment.
Modified the existing release note for this.

- Swap "$variable type" to "type $variable"
- Added missing types
- Fixed spacing inside docs
- Makes beginning of @param/@return/@var/@throws in capital
- Changed some types to match the more common spelling

For example, [[en:]] on enwiki. These links were for some reason considered
invalid. However, to support use-cases such as cross-wiki transclusion and
the importing of templates across wikis, this type of link should be
allowed.
I can't see that this would break anything. If anything, it will "un-break"
some links.
Should MediaWikiTitleCodec depend on Title::newMainPage? Almost certainly
not, but I note that splitTitleString is earmarked for demolition, so I
expect that the confusing dependency-web will be cleaned up in the future.
I also note that MediaWikiTitleCode already uses various static methods of
the Title class.

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.

This code was added by Brion back in 2004 as part of r6398.
According to Brion, links like [[en:wikt:foo]] on English Wikipedia are
"just crazy!", but I can't see any reason to disallow them.

TitleValue is intended to be a light weight alternative to the Title
class. Any operations on TitleValue are implemented in separate
service classes, like TitleFormatter and PageLinkRenderer. See
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/TitleValue>
for more information.
This change updates SpecialCategories and SpecialLinkSearch to use
TitleValue instead of Title, to demonstrate how TitleValue would be
used, and how the necessary services can be injected and applied.
The intention is to improve testability and reusability; these
advantages will however only become apparent with further refactoring
of the respective special pages. This will be done in follow-up
changes.
More work will be needed to migrate essential functionality from
Title and Linker classes into the respective service classes,
MediaWikiTitleCodec and MediaWikiPageLinkRenderer.
