No need to duplicate the code of User::getAutomaticGroups() in
ApiQueryUsers::getAutoGroups(), instead just call that method
directly.
Also deprecated the latter in favour of the former and replaced
all calls in core.

On a stock install, the autoconfirmed requirements default to zero, so
anons qualify for autoconfirmed. They don't actually get it because
User::getEffectiveGroups() only checks for autopromote groups for
logged-in users. However, ApiQueryUsers::getAutoGroups() (which
duplicates this logic for some reason) didn't use the same rule and
applied autopromote groups to anons too, which caused discrepancies
betwen the API output and wgUserGroups.
Krinkle noticed this because a QUnit test for mw.user.getGroups() was
failing while logged out: the API response included autoconfirmed but
wgUserGroups didn't.

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.

Added information about the properties of the results of API calls
to action=paraminfo, including information about "property groups":
what should the prop parameter be set to to get that property.
Uses the same format for types as parameters already do.
The output format of some modules doesn't fit this, so the result
properties for them weren't added, or only partially.
Partially implemented modules:
* expandtemplates:
parsetree is in its own tag
* protect, allusers, backlinks, deletedrevs, info, imageinfo,
logevents, querypage, recentchanges, revisions, searchinfo,
usercontribs, userinfo, users, watchlist, upload:
response with partially complex structure
Not implemented modules:
* feedcontributions, feedwatchlist, opensearch, rds:
non-standard reponse
* help:
error is normal response; not very useful for automated tools anyway
* paraminfo, parse, pageprops, siteinfo, userrights:
response with complex structure

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.
* (bug 27549) action=query&list=users&usprop=groups doesn't show implicit groups if a user doesn't have explicit groups
Also follows up r79556, where I'd done a couple of daft things... (accessing undefined objects)
If the user is allowed to view hidden users, put a missing property on all users.
For list=users, do the same, but we can't easily distinguish to other people the difference between "hidden", or "missing", so no reason to do it
Comment out description line about rights from ApiQueryUsers, as that prop doesn't exist (Might do in future. Possible artifact from large scale comment addition?)
* Introduced a "cache mode" concept to simplify the header generation code, and to avoid odd results when conflicting cache header requests are received from submodules, or at least to formalise the handling of such cases.
* Made the cache mode private by default, so that code written in ignorance of caching tends to be safe. If different query modules are used in a single request, private caching is preferred over public caching.
* Removed the "must-revalidate" option from all CC headers, this is really specific to page views with a hacked squid in front, I don't think it's applicable here.
* Made the watchlist module private. This is really the definition of private data. There's nothing in the HTTP spec that says the URL for a CC:public request is private and can't be leaked. CC:private provides protection against unknown proxy behaviour.
* In ApiQueryAllmessages: avoid calling $wgLang->getCode() to check if it's necessary to make a new $wgLang when lang= is specified, since this is the only thing that unstubs $wgUser.
* Removed "FIXME: should this check $user instead of $wgUser?" Answer is no.
