New types 'text' and 'password' for where a <textarea> or
<input type="password"> would be preferred over <input type="text">.
Some timestamp parameters get actually tagged as 'timestamp'.
'submodule' types change the 'submodules' output property from a boolean
to an object indicating the mapping from values to module paths. And
they get an indication of the submodule parameter prefix (e.g.
generator's "g"), if applicable. "generator" actually gets reported as a
submodule type, using this new mechanism.
action=paraminfo will now indicate ApiBase::PARAM_RANGE_ENFORCE status,
and return better-formatted defaults for timestamps and booleans.

Nothing in this patch should result in changed output for format=json or
format=php except as noted in RELEASE-NOTES-1.25, and changed output for
format=xml should be similar or cosmetic. However, other code accessing
the result data directly may need to be updated.

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.

There are cases where the list of values for a 'prop' parameter may be
manipulated by a subclass or by a hook function of some sort. Rather
than requiring the subclass/hook to completely replace a monolithic i18n
message, let's add the possibility of separate messages for each value
in the list.

list=deletedrevs has always been an odd one: it pretends to be a prop
module sometimes in taking titles from ApiPageSet, but when the pageset
supplies no titles it acts like a list module. This causes problems
such as bug 71389, and makes the whole thing unnecessarily confusing.
The solution is to split the "prop" and "list" aspects into separate
modules: prop=deletedrevisions when input should come from ApiPageSet
and list=alldeletedrevisions when not.
At the same time, let's take advantage of the situation to clear up some
other bugs. And let's share the revision-formatting code with
ApiQueryRevisions instead of partially reimplementing it.

This also adds some new ApiBase::PARAM_* constants to generate more
helpful help, and a method to override the default description message
for the use of ApiDisabled and ApiQueryDisabled.
Bug: 71638
Change-Id: Ic0c3d232e0498d58a043037e2e0c6f0b1c3edad3
The existing API help, formatted as basically a plain-text document
embedded in XML and with a little bolding and a few links
syntax-highlighted in after the fact, works ok for experienced programmers
but isn't at all newbie-friendly. Further, all the help is hard-coded in
English, which isn't very friendly to non-English speakers.
So let's rewrite it. The help text is now obtained from i18n messages
and output in HTML, with the default display consisting of help for a
single module with links to help for other modules. This, of course,
necessitates deprecating many of the existing help-related methods and
hooks and replacing them with new ones, but backwards compatibility is
maintained for almost everything.
At the same time, action=paraminfo also needs to support the
'description' and other help-related fields being output in wikitext or
HTML, and I11cb063d (to access all modules via the 'modules' parameter
instead of having 'modules', 'formatmodules', 'querymodules', and so on)
is folded in.
And we also add Special:ApiHelp. When directly accessed, it simply
redirects to api.php with appropriate parameters. But it's also
transcludable to allow up-to-date API help text to be included within
the on-wiki documentation.
Note this patch doesn't actually add i18n messages for any API modules
besides ApiMain and ApiHelp. That will come in a followup patch, but for
the moment the backwards-compatibility code handles them nicely.
While we're messing with the documentation, we may as well add the
"internal" flag requested in bug 62905 (although the 'includeinternal'
parameter it also requests doesn't make much sense anymore) and a
"deprecated" flag that's needed by several modules now.

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.

This allows action=paraminfo to indicate when a parameter is specifying
a submodule (so clients can detect what the submodule names are). This
will also allow the future action=help HTMLization to easily auto-link
to submodule docs, and will allow ApiSandbox to handle submodules more
generically.
For BC, rather than directly specifying "type": "submodule", it lists
the names of all the submodules as the type and adds an additional
"submodules" indicator on the param info object.

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.

Which type is used depends on the ApiModuleManager responsible for
the API module. There are two managers, one in ApiMain and one in
ApiQuery. Both contain a list of API modules they instantiate.
Both use $this as the first parameter in the constructors of the
individual modules. There is no other regular way to instantiate the
modules, so we know the type must either be ApiMain or ApiQuery.
The lists don't intersect.
I would have prefered the naming scheme $mainModule for ApiMain
modules and $queryModule for ApiQuery modules but since this
doesn't add much I left the shorter variable names untouched.

* PageSet can now be used in any action to process titles/pageids/revids
or any generator, redirects resolution, and converttitle functionality.
* action=purge proper usage of MustBePosted()
* Add supports for all pageset capabilities - generators, redirects, converttitles to
action=purge and action=setnotificationtimestamp
* BREAKING CHANGE: ApiPageSet constructor now has two params instead of three, with only the
first one keeping its meaning. ApiPageSet is now derived from ApiBase.
* BREAKING CHANGE: ApiQuery::newGenerator() and executeGeneratorModule() were deleted.

This is a non-versioned part of the larger patch #41014https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/41014
It will allow help subsystem optimization (merging paraminfo and help),
path towards per-module or per-system versioning, removal of the
manually maintained generator lists.
Changes:
* ApiModuleManager now handles all submodules (actions,props,lists) and instantiation
* ApiModuleManager maintains a cache of all instantiated modules
* Query stores prop/list/meta as submodules
* action=help suports generalized submodules (modules=query+value), querymodules obsolete

Doxygen choke on text enclosed by '<' and '>' since it tries to
interpret them as HTML or XML elements. This patch adds double quotes
in includes/api/*.php files around the two following strings:
<Firstname>.<Lastname>@gmail.com
<Firstname><Lastname>@gmail.com
Which becomes:
"<Firstname>.<Lastname>@gmail.com"
"<Firstname><Lastname>@gmail.com"
Tested locally, it prevents doxygen 1.8.0 related warnings.

Added information about the properties of the results of API calls
to action=paraminfo, including information about "property groups":
what should the prop parameter be set to to get that property.
Uses the same format for types as parameters already do.
The output format of some modules doesn't fit this, so the result
properties for them weren't added, or only partially.
Partially implemented modules:
* expandtemplates:
parsetree is in its own tag
* protect, allusers, backlinks, deletedrevs, info, imageinfo,
logevents, querypage, recentchanges, revisions, searchinfo,
usercontribs, userinfo, users, watchlist, upload:
response with partially complex structure
Not implemented modules:
* feedcontributions, feedwatchlist, opensearch, rds:
non-standard reponse
* help:
error is normal response; not very useful for automated tools anyway
* paraminfo, parse, pageprops, siteinfo, userrights:
response with complex structure

It's a parctice that dates back to 2006 when the API was first written, and frankly isn't covered by the coding conventions. Same thing with the docblocks, they're all copypasted with some bits changed and don't even make sense if you look at them in the genereated code docs.
I don't feel that any of us depend on this anymore (get a better IDE), so in the inerest of consistancy it's time we said goodbye to it.
Start of this bug, fleshed out base code implemented, plus a few key modules (will finish rest up soon)
Tweaked/improved/updated some documentation as I went through also
