One exception message contained a trailing dot/space, which I removed
as well, following I935835316c0.
A very small number of exceptions and output() calls contained trailing
space, which I removed for consistency.

The user 'Maintenance script' is often used to perform various
automated tasks. Providing it everywhere as a string literal is
error-prone, and errors can be somewhat disruptive (e.g. with
User::newSystemUser with steal=true it can erase the credentials
of a legitimate account). Provide a constant instead.
Also replace existing uses for consistency.

Benefit of keeping the parameter optional:
- In maintenance scripts that really only have one parameter, it's a
little more convenient to be able to ask for *the* parameter via an
empty getArg().
Disadvantages:
- It's unclear what getArg() means when there is no indication *which*
argument the code asks for. This might as well return the last
argument, or an array of all arguments.
- In scripts with two or more arguments, it's confusing to see
getArg( 1 ) next to an empty getArg().
- The methods are more complex and a bit more complicated to use with
the extra feature of this parameter being optional. Users need to
look up what the default is to be able to use it safely.

The most notable removal is done in the orphans script. This code was
really never used. Brion introduced it in 2005, already disabled.
I have all the respect for what Brion did. I just think it does not make
much sense to keep code around for so long if it does not work anyway,
and must be rewritten from scratch anyway now that we have multi-content
revisions and such.

Deprecate the second argument to Maintenance::error() in favor of a new
Maintenance::fatalError() method. This is intended to make it easier to
review flow control in maintenance scripts.

AuthManager is coming, which will make it easier to add alternative
methods of authentication. But in order to do that, we need to finally
get around to ripping the password-related bits out of the User class.
The password expiration handling isn't used anywhere in core or
extensions in Gerrit beyond testing for expired passwords on login and
resetting the expiry date on password change. Those bits have been
inlined and the functions removed; AuthManager will allow each
"authentication provider" to handle its own password expiration.
The methods for fetching passwords, including the fact that mPassword
and other fields are public, has also been removed. This is already
broken in combination with basically any extension that messes with
authentication, and the major use outside of that was in creating
system users like MassMessage's "MediaWiki message delivery" user.
Password setting methods are silently deprecated, since most of the
replacements won't be available until AuthManager. But uses in unit
testing can be replaced with TestUser::setPasswordForUser() immediately.
User::randomPassword() and User::getPasswordFactory() don't really
belong in User either. For the former a new PasswordFactory method has
been created, while the latter should just be replaced by the two lines
to create a PasswordFactory via its constructor.

Follows-up I1343872de7, Ia533aedf63 and I2df2f80b81.
Also updated usage in text in documentation and the
installer LocalSettingsGenerator.
Most of them were handled by this regex:
- find: (require|include|require_once|include_once)\s*\(\s*(.+?)\s*\)\s*;$
- replace: $1 $2;

Squiz.WhiteSpace.LanguageConstructSpacing:
Language constructs must be followed by a single space;
expected "require_once expression" but found
"require_once(expression)"
It is a keyword (e.g. like `new`, `return` and `print`). As
such the parentheses don't make sense.
Per our code conventions, we use a space after keywords like
these. We appeared to have an unwritten exception for `require`
that doesn't make sense. About 60% of require/include usage
was missing the space and/or had superfluous parentheses.
It is as silly as print("foo") or return("foo"), it works
because keywords have no significance for whitespace between
it and the expression that follows, and since experessions can
be wrapped in parentheses for clarity (e.g. when doing string
concatenation or mathematical operations) the parenthesis
before and after basiclaly just ignored.

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 :)

* Removed permissions check from WikiPage::doUpdateRestrictions() and left it for callers, resolves the todo from documentation
* Inverted $expiry and $reason parameter between WikiPage::doUpdateRestrictions() and WikiPage::updateRestrictions() for more consistency; WikiPage::doUpdateRestrictions() also requires all parameters to be passed
* WikiPage::doUpdateRestrictions() returns a Status object instead of bool for the older one; only possible error at the moment is a read-only database
* Updated core calls to these functions
* Made maintenance scripts using it simply protect all actions returned by Title::getRestrictionTypes() instead of hardcoded 'edit' and 'move'
* This also means that protect.php can be used to protect a non-existing page for creation
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
