Currently, users who are partially blocked are prevented from deleting
revisions. The system should check to see if the user can edit the page.
Bug: T228486
Change-Id: Id08dfab9b0ebe9721d3552564ee9f9d1e1a4805a
The method User::isBlocked() attempts to answer two questions:
(1) Does the user have a block?
(2) Is the user prevented from performing this action?
The method can answer #1, but it cannot answer #2. Since User::getBlock() can
also answer #1, this method is redundant. The method cannot answer #2 because
there is not enough context in order to answer that question.
If access is being checked against a Title object, all access checks can be
performed with PermissionManager:userCan() which will also check the user's
blocks.
If performing all access checks is not desirable, using
PermissionManager::isBlockedFrom() is also acceptable for only checking if the
user is blocked. This method does *not* determine if the action is allowed,
only that the user's block applies to that Title.
If access is being checked without an existing Title, User::getBlock() can be
used to get the user's block. Then Block::appliesToRight() can be used to
determine if the block applies explicitly to a right (or returns null if
it is unknown or false if explicitly allowed). If the user is creating a new
Title, but the text of the title is not yet known (as in the case of Wikibase),
access should be checked with Block::appliesToNamespace().

During development a lot of classes were placed in MediaWiki\Storage\.
The precedent set would mean that every class relating to something
stored in a database table, plus all related value classes and such,
would go into that namespace.
Let's put them into MediaWiki\Revision\ instead. Then future classes
related to the 'page' table can go into MediaWiki\Page\, future classes
related to the 'user' table can go into MediaWiki\User\, and so on.
Note I didn't move DerivedPageDataUpdater, PageUpdateException,
PageUpdater, or RevisionSlotsUpdate in this patch. If these are kept
long-term, they probably belong in MediaWiki\Page\ or MediaWiki\Edit\
instead.

MCR deprecated the Revision class in favor of the broadly similar
RevisionRecord, and more interestingly added the concept of multiple
content "slots" to revisions.
Thus, prop=revisions, prop=deletedrevisions, and so on gain a parameter
to specify which slots are wanted. When this new parameter is not
specified (and any content-related props are specified), a warning about
the legacy format will be issued.
The rest of the modules just needed to call methods or use constants on
RevisionRecord instead of Revision. ApiQueryDeletedrevs wasn't touched,
since it has been deprecated since 1.25 anyway.
This also updates a few non-query modules that don't depend on details
of editing, diffing, or viewing MCR revisions that haven't been figured
out yet.

some with leading zero at the day, some without.

PHP 7.2 broke existing functionality in making count( null ) raise a
warning. So add tests for null all over the place, or change tests where
we know the value is null or an array (but not false, empty-string, or
0) to just cast to boolean.

Links generated by the API are now aware of the user's preferred
language and will show documents in that language if available.
To test, log in to mediawiki.org and set your language preference to 'es',
then on an MediaWiki installation with this patch view the generated
expanded API help at `api.php?action=help&recursivesubmodules=1&modules=main`.
Each link to documentation on mediawiki.org should take you to its
translated /es subpage, if one exists.

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.

* Potentially long running POST requests often use multiple transactions,
talk to multiple services, or defer updates. Try to make sure they have
a chance to complete all of the work. WMF already sets ignore_user_abort()
across the board in config, but this applies it to key spots for all
installs, in addition to bumping the time limit.
* Eventually this can lower the need for high overall time limits.

ApiResult was a mess: some methods could only be used with an array
reference instead of manipulating the stored data, methods that had both
array-ref and internal-data versions had names that didn't at all
correspond, some methods that worked on an array reference were
annoyingly non-static, and then the whole mess with setIndexedTagName.
ApiFormatXml is also entirely annoying to deal with, as it liked to
throw exceptions if certain metadata wasn't provided that no other
formatter required. Its legacy also means we have this silly convention
of using empty-string rather than boolean true, annoying restrictions on
keys (leading to things that should be hashes being arrays of key-value
object instead), '*' used as a key all over the place, and so on.
So, changes here:
* ApiResult is no longer an ApiBase or a ContextSource.
* Wherever sensible, ApiResult provides a static method working on an
arrayref and a non-static method working on internal data.
* Metadata is now always added to ApiResult's internal data structure.
Formatters are responsible for stripping it if necessary. "raw mode"
is deprecated.
* New metadata to replace the '*' key, solve the array() => '[]' vs '{}'
question, and so on.
* New class for formatting warnings and errors using i18n messages, and
support for multiple errors and a more machine-readable format for
warnings. For the moment, though, the actual output will not be changing
yet (see T47843 for future plans).
* New formatversion parameter for format=json and format=php, to select
between BC mode and the modern output.
* In BC mode, booleans will be converted to empty-string presence style;
modules currently returning booleans will need to use
ApiResult::META_BC_BOOLS to preserve their current output.
Actual changes to the API modules' output (e.g. actually returning
booleans for the new formatversion) beyond the use of
ApiResult::setContentValue() are left for a future change.

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.
