User needs to load user preferences to get preferred language, which
calls User::load() which calls User::loadFromSession().
User::loadFromSession() tries to load blocks which might use messages
which need user language which calls User::load() because the previous
call to it haven't completed yet...
We have a protection against infinite recursion to prevent this from
completely crashing MW, however this patch fixes the main issue: loading
too much stuff when a User is initialized.

Move the cookie blocking logic into one place. Specifically, move
these methods to the BlockManager:
* User::trackBlockWithCookie
* DatabaseBlock::setCookie
* DatabaseBlock::clearCookie
* DatabaseBlock::getCookieValue
* DatabaseBlock::getIdFromCookieValue
* AbstractBlock::shouldTrackWithCookie
After this, BlockManager::trackBlockWithCookie should be called to
track a block, and BlockManager::clearBlockCookie should be called
to unset the cookie. The other methods in the above list are
helper methods that are made private or marked internal.
Also update places in core that call User::trackBlockWithCookie to
BlockManager::trackBlockWithCookie

Keep Block as a deprecated class alias for DatabaseBlock.
Update calls to the Block constructor and Block static
methods from external classes.
Also update documentation in several places that refer to
blocks as Blocks.

This introduces a minimal BlockManager service, for getting blocks
that apply to a User.
Move the part of User::getBlockedStatus that checks for the blocks
into BlockManager::getUserBlock, and move the related helper
methods from User to BlockManager.
Hard deprecate or remove these helper methods, and move to private
methods in the BlockManager:
* User::getBlockFromCookieValue
* User::isLocallyBlockedProxy
* User::inDnsBlacklist
Soft deprecate these helper methods, and move to public methods in
the BlockManager:
* User::isDnsBlacklisted
Add tests to cover the methods moved to BlockManager.
