The PHP logic for grammatical cases in Russian was growing.
It was too long and not reusable is JavaScript.
This patch moves all the logic to a JSON file,
indexed by the grammatical case name and then
by regular expressions that match the different
word classes, with the values being the replacements
that should be compatible with common regular expression
replacement functions in modern programming languages.
This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes
and doesn't change any tests.
The next steps, not necessarily in this order, are:
* Make it work also with JavaScript.
* Make JSON grammar data files loadable with ResourceLoader.
* Convert most or all grammar rules for all the languages to JSON.
* Make the data processing loop generic for all languages.
* Convert it also in jquery.i18n (Milkshake).
* Convert the test cases data from code to generic data.
* Move the JSON data to a separate reusable repository.

CLDR provides translated language names. They are useful for showing
names by themselves in menus and lists, but it's often problematic to add them
to Russian sentences, because they need to be declined, so a message like
"This page is not available in the $1 language" is hard to localize.
This patch adds new cases for Russian -
"languagegen", "languageprep" and "languageadverb".
(The last one, as its name says, it's not actually a grammatical case,
but a transformation to an adverbial expression.)
This covers most of the needs for language names that MediaWiki supports.

Swapped some "$var type" to "type $var" or added missing types
before the $var. Changed some other types to match the more common
spelling. Makes beginning of some text in captial.

Russian (ru) plural rules have a major change. The 'few' form is
merged with the 'other' form. The current forms are 'one', 'many', 'other'.
In MW ru plural rules were overridden using convertPlural methdod
in LanguagesRu.php with 3 forms.
Effectively forms[1] and forms[2] are swapped.

Russian has overridden convertPlural method, that was not
taking care of explicit plural forms.

Doxygen documentation update:
* Changed alls @addtogroup to @ingroup. @addtogroup adds the comment to the group description, but doesn't add the file, class, function, ... to the group like @ingroup does. See for example http://svn.wikimedia.org/doc/group__SpecialPage.html where it's impossible to see related files, classes, ... that should belong to that group.
* Added @file to file description, it seems that it should be explicitely decalred for file descriptions, otherwise doxygen will think that the comment document the first class, variabled, function, ... that is in that file.
* Removed some empty comments
* Removed some ?>
Added following groups:
* ExternalStorage
* JobQueue
* MaintenanceLanguage
One more thing: there are still a lot of warnings when generating the doc.
