Reuse SpecialVersions arrayToString (made it explicitly public!) in an array_amp for the formatting of arrays/objects (Yay for all the different ways we accept things ;P)
No checking for NS or unique in the mode 1/2 checks, as they have defaults of 0 and false, which is impossible to determine if they had been set as that, or just using the defaults. They are ignored in the code still on the incorrect path
Update usage of dir
* Replaced wfProfileClose() and wfGetProfilingOutput() by direct calls to the Profiler instance and removed them, no uses in extensions
* Also removed useless params from Profiler::getOutput() call in wfLogProfilingData()
* Only generate profiling output if it'll be used; introduced Profiler::logData() that saves profiling data (database, udp, ...) to separate it from output generation
* Removed unused Profiler::getCaller(), not used at all, and we have wfGetCaller() that does the same thing
* (bug 28591) Update/replace/supplement spyc (YAML parsing library)
* YAML API output is now 1.2 compliant, using JSON as the formatter
YAML 1.2 spec is a JSON subset - "The primary objective of this revision is to bring YAML into compliance with JSON as an official subset. YAML 1.2 is compatible with 1.1 for most practical applications - this is a minor revision." [1] Per discussion with Tim, switch YAML to use the JSON formatter
Was originally going to delete the ApiFormatYaml per Tim, but class needed to keep nicer (and apparent) output in API help page
Hence made subclass ApiFormatJson, minimal method overriding
spyc.php deleted from libs

Also make a few changes to the functions available. SpecialPageFactory::resolveAlias() now takes an optional subpage and returns array(<name>,<subpage>). Similarly merge getPage() and getPageByAlias(). There were many examples of (extensions particularly) making dubious assumptions about the presence or absence of subpages or canonical-ness.
I didn't deprecate SpecialPage::getTitleFor() as it's got over six hundred calls. I'm rather undecided on the best position of getPage()/executePath(). Although the latter needs cleanup anyway.
Hope I did this in an ok fashion. svn merge --re-integrate was giving me issues
so I just essentially over-wrote my working copy with the version at img_metadata.
* Actions come in two flavours: the show-a-form-then-do-something-with-the-result (delete, protect, edit, etc) and the just-do-something (watch, rollback, patrol, etc). Create abstract base classes Action and FormlessAction to support these two cases. HTMLForm is an integral part of the form-based structure.
* Look mum, no globals! :D Fully context-based.
* Implement watch/unwatch, credits and delete actions in the new system as proof-of-concept. This also gives the delete frontend a much-needed overhaul.
* Stub out the newly-deprecated functions from Article.php. This already reduces its linecount by about 15%, and there are plenty more actions still to do.
* Centralising actions like this is going to render a lot of hooks type-incompatible. There's simply nowhere you can put the ArticleConfirmDelete hook, for instance, where it can be passed an OutputPage as the second parameter. On the other hand, we can implement new hooks like ActionModifyFormFields and ActionBeforeFormDisplay, which can do much prettier stuff to the forms, like adding extra fields the 'right' way. Update LiquidThreads to use these new hooks where appropriate.
