/**
* Interface for serializable objects that describe a job queue task
*
* A job specification can be inserted into a queue via JobQueue::push().
* The specification parameters should be JSON serializable (e.g. no PHP classes).
* Whatever queue the job specification is pushed into is assumed to have job runners
* that will eventually pop the job specification from the queue, construct a RunnableJob
* instance from the specification, and then execute that instance via RunnableJob::run().
*
* Job classes must have a constructor that takes a Title and a parameter array, except
* when they also implement GenericParameterJob in which case they must only take an array.
* When reconstructing the job from the job queue, the value returned from getParams() will
* be passed in as the constructor's array parameter; the title will be constructed from
* the parameter array's `namespace` and `title` fields (when these are omitted, some
* fallback title will be used).
*
* @ingroup JobQueue
* @since 1.23
