Previously, you could pass 'cssclass' => 'mw-chosen' in the form
descriptor for a 'multiselect' field, and it'd be automatically
converted to a text field with a dropdown allowing values to be
selected. This is not very intuitive (unless you know what the Chosen
library is) and was not documented anywhere except for release notes.
The new recommended and documented way to achieve this is by passing
'dropdown' => true. Old way is supported for backwards compatibility.
Also, add the 'jquery.chosen' module to the page server-side.

Rather than have a master list in autoinfuse.js (duplicated in
hide-if.js), we put this information in each field class and put it
in the generated HTML as a separate 'data-' attribute. This also
allows new fields defined by extensions to be correctly autoinfused.

This is not really what we had in mind when developing the infusion
feature and I think it's not helpful. Most of the time there is just
no benefit; a ButtonWidget generated in PHP and in JS behaves and
looks pretty much the same, and rebuilding it through infusion is a
small performance hit. If you're not adding any event handlers, it only
makes sense for various dropdowns, which have themed styling.
For the primary use case of adding JS behaviors to PHP widgets you
need to call OO.ui.infuse() anyway to get a reference to the JS
widget, and not infusing automatically should make it easier to reason
about your code. Infusion tries to be very transparent, but it can't
hide the fact that the DOM is re-built, making your references to DOM
nodes from before infusion useless and losing anything from PHP that
wasn't included in the config (e.g. custom attributes).
This commit removes automated infusion from mediawiki.page.ready
and adds some custom code in mediawiki.special.movePage and
mediawiki.htmlform. I see only two extensions using infusable OOjs UI
widgets in Gerrit (ArticlePlaceholder and ExtensionDistributor) and
neither should be affected by this change.

I was a bit fast with merging I18edfcb62f7b21f2c1990c73944ee6a956fd4901,
because I think, type hinting the type of the parameter would make sense,
too.

It's getting more difficult to navigate the files in includes/htmlform/
with every new field and every new helper class that is being added.
