API warnings and error messages are currently hard-coded English
strings. This patch changes that.
With a few exceptions, this patch should be compatible with non-updated
extensions:
* The change to ApiBase::$messageMap will blow up anything trying to
mess with it.
* The changes to the 'ApiCheckCanExecute' hook will cause a wrong
(probably unparsed) error message to be emitted for extensions not
already using an ApiMessage. Unless they're currently broken like
Wikibase.

User keeps most of its token-related methods because anon edit tokens
are special. Login and createaccount tokens are completely moved.

To make it easier for stuff to transition, allow action=tokens to return
the new types that action=query&meta=tokens supports.

Nothing in this patch should result in changed output for format=json or
format=php except as noted in RELEASE-NOTES-1.25, and changed output for
format=xml should be similar or cosmetic. However, other code accessing
the result data directly may need to be updated.

Xhprof generates this data now. Custom profiling of various
sub-function units are kept.
Calls to profiler represented about 3% of page execution
time on Special:BlankPage (1.5% in/out); after this change
it's down to about 0.98% of page execution time.

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.

The existing API help, formatted as basically a plain-text document
embedded in XML and with a little bolding and a few links
syntax-highlighted in after the fact, works ok for experienced programmers
but isn't at all newbie-friendly. Further, all the help is hard-coded in
English, which isn't very friendly to non-English speakers.
So let's rewrite it. The help text is now obtained from i18n messages
and output in HTML, with the default display consisting of help for a
single module with links to help for other modules. This, of course,
necessitates deprecating many of the existing help-related methods and
hooks and replacing them with new ones, but backwards compatibility is
maintained for almost everything.
At the same time, action=paraminfo also needs to support the
'description' and other help-related fields being output in wikitext or
HTML, and I11cb063d (to access all modules via the 'modules' parameter
instead of having 'modules', 'formatmodules', 'querymodules', and so on)
is folded in.
And we also add Special:ApiHelp. When directly accessed, it simply
redirects to api.php with appropriate parameters. But it's also
transcludable to allow up-to-date API help text to be included within
the on-wiki documentation.
Note this patch doesn't actually add i18n messages for any API modules
besides ApiMain and ApiHelp. That will come in a followup patch, but for
the moment the backwards-compatibility code handles them nicely.
While we're messing with the documentation, we may as well add the
"internal" flag requested in bug 62905 (although the 'includeinternal'
parameter it also requests doesn't make much sense anymore) and a
"deprecated" flag that's needed by several modules now.

The current token handling is a mess. This simplifies things greatly:
* *All* tokens are obtained from action=query&meta=tokens, rather than
being spread over action=tokens, action=query&prop=info,
action=query&prop=revisions, action=query&prop=recentchanges, and
action=query&prop=users. All these old methods are deprecated.
* Similarly, there is only one hook to register new token types. All old
hooks are deprecated.
* All tokens are cacheable.
* Most token types are dropped in favor of a 'csrf' token. They already
were returning the same token anyway.
* All token-using modules will document the required token type in a
standard manner in action=help and are documented in machine-readable
fashion in action=paraminfo.
Note this will require updates to all extensions using tokens.

The format for 'props' was never specified and the list for 'errors' is
impossible to keep updated when considering that many errors come from
MediaWiki backend code and extension hook functions. And since there
doesn't seem to be any real use case for either of these, let's just
kill both of them instead of wasting effort on trying to fix them.
Note that neither getResultProperties nor getPossibleErrors are called
from any extensions in gerrit, and none of the other deprecated methods
are called outside of the implementations of those two methods. Removing
the obsolete methods is left to the maintainers of the extensions, as
keeping them hurts nothing and is needed to maintain compatibility with
earlier versions of MediaWiki.
Change-Id: Ie11a401d60c834059fbf1b5625ca8ea093b3337c
Add checks to token-returning functions to prevent returning tokens in
jsonp mode. This affects action=tokens, action=login,
action=createaccount, and action=query&list=deletedrevs.
Also, remove the "gettoken" parameter to action=block and
action=unblock, which has been deprecated since 1.20.

other values

For historical reasons, all our API class had a dummy __construct which
simply calls their parent constructor. This patch removes all such
occurences to save out some bytes.

API was using SVN's version keyword which GIT does not support.
All related methods were either removed, or for those that
could have been used from extensions, emptied out.
api.php?version now shows unrecognized param warning.
Change-Id: I910ca1448ed2ed697ac19b17c486d130aa1d7e03
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
