LogFormatter is another place that uses the global state a lot, with
Title, Linker, etc. Some of its dependencies were accessing the
database, but most LogFormatter methods are not in the database group.
This patch tries to work around the DB dependencies by providing
(complex) mocks that do not access the DB. There's a lot of mocking
involved, but that's just because of the current state of LogFormatter,
and hopefully it'll get better some day.
Rights- and ProtectLogFormatter also need a mock DB connection because
they use the database to format expiry.

This patch adds an ug_expiry column to the user_groups table, a timestamp
giving a date when the user group expires. A new UserGroupMembership class,
based on the Block class, manages entries in this table.
When the expiry date passes, the row in user_groups is ignored, and will
eventually be purged from the DB when UserGroupMembership::insert is next
called. Old, expired user group memberships are not kept; instead, the log
entries are available to find the history of these memberships, similar
to the way it has always worked for blocks and protections.
Anyone getting user group info through the User object will get correct
information. However, code that reads the user_groups table directly will
now need to skip over rows with ug_expiry < wfTimestampNow(). See
UsersPager for an example of how to do this.
NULL is used to represent infinite (no) expiry, rather than a string
'infinity' or similar (except in the API). This allows existing user group
assignments and log entries, which are all infinite in duration, to be
treated the same as new, infinite-length memberships, without special
casing everything.
The whole thing is behind the temporary feature flag
$wgDisableUserGroupExpiry, in accordance with the WMF schema change policy.
The opportunity has been taken to refactor some static user-group-related
functions out of User into UserGroupMembership, and also to add a primary
key (ug_user, ug_group) to the user_groups table.
There are a few breaking changes:
- UserRightsProxy-like objects are now required to have a
getGroupMemberships() function.
- $user->mGroups (on a User object) is no longer present.
- Some protected functions in UsersPager are altered or removed.
- The UsersPagerDoBatchLookups hook (unused in any Wikimedia Git-hosted
extension) has a change of parameter.

The target of the right log entry is shown with namespace prefix, but it
is always a user, so skip the namespace prefix.

Test the LogFormatter by passing old and new database rows to it.
The text shown on Special:Log and the api result returned by
list=logevents is tested.
