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.

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.

It would be useful to be able to list pages using a particular page
property, particularly in light of the new Disambiguator extension.
This adds a special page Special:PagesWithProp and an API query module
list=pageswithprop to do just this. It also adds an API query module
list=pagepropnames to list the prop names currently in use on the wiki.
