The following glasses are marked as newable per the
Stable Interface Policy, even though logically, they should not be
newable. This is done for classes that are currently instantiated
by extensions, and lack an alternative.
A better way for obtaining an instance of these classes should be
created in the future. At that point, direct instantiation should
be deprecated and replaced.
- includes/ApiMain.php - needs factory
- includes/media/BitmapMetadataHandler.php - should become a stateless service or use handler pattern
- includes/GitInfo.php - should become a stateless service
- includes/logging/LogPage.php - should become a stateless service or use command pattern
- includes/logging/ManualLogEntry.php - should become a stateless service or use command pattern
- includes/poolcounter/PoolCounterWorkViaCallback.php - needs a factory
- includes/context/RequestContext.php - needs to be narrowed down, and should use a factory
- includes/search/SearchHighlighter.php - should have a factory
- includes/TitleArrayFromResult.php - should perhaps be part of TitleFactory
- includes/user/User.php - should at least get a factory method for anons
- includes/diff/Diff.php: needs a TextDiffGenerator service or a factory
- includes/EditPage.php: needs a factory

The names of these methods are a little strange, that's probably why
we missed them before.
I tried to update closely related test cases, make use of PHP7 type
hints, as well as yield where it feels it makes sense.

Reasons for touching this are:
* "@param type $var" were mixed in a lot of places. Both works but the
MediaWiki coding conventions suggest that specific order.
* Things like String and Bool aren't objects and shouldn't be uppercase.
* Tried to fill missing types in "@param $var".
* Tried to fill missing descriptions in "@return type" when I could.
* Removed duplicate descriptions if a @see is sufficend.
* Removed useless descriptions ("isUsefull returns true if usefull").
* Removed useless @return void.
* Replaces mixed[] with array (does have the exact same meaning).
* Tried to find better replacements for "varargs", phpDocumentor
suggest $var,...
* Order should be @since, @param, @throws, @return, @see. This is the
order Doxygen renders this.
There is always more to do but I think this is already much better
than before. Please feel free to put more change sets on top of mine
or request more changes by adding comments.

* Move some classes to separate files to avoid having a monstrous file with a
dozen classes.
* Remove weird underscores from class names.
* Instead of prefixing members with underscores, specify visibility explicitly.
* Rename c_style -> camelCase per coding conventions.
* Throw exceptions instead of fataling out with trigger_error().
* Remove pointless constant used only once.
