Timo Tijhof 5d8f62bdd3 ExtensionRegistry: Remove exporting and caching of wgExtensionCredits
This data is the same as the 'credits' data that is already compiled,
cached and made available via ExtensionRegistry.

Similar to various other configuration variables previously, the
$wgExtensionCredits variable is now also required to only be used
for providing input to the system (e.g. from LocalSettings.php,
or from legacy extension PHP entry points). It is no longer
supported to use this variable to reliably read out a full view
of all extension credits (specifically those registered via
extension.json).

Doing so had the downside of adding processing cost to every
web request, as well as taking one the single largest portion
of the ExtensionRegistry APCu cache key, which in PHP7+ incurs
a linear cost for every string value, string key, of every
(sub)array in this huge structure; and does to on every request
just in case something reads from $wgExtensionCredits.

The new method to access this information reliably is owned
by SpecialVersion for now (could be moved elsewhere). This
also makes the merging logic more testable and incurs it on-demand
rather than upfront.

Details:

* Move 'type' internally from NOT_ATTRIBS to CREDIT_ATTRIBS.
  These two arrays behave identically for most purposes (they are
  both used to mean "don't export this as a global attribute").

  By placing it in CREDIT_ATTRIBS it becomes complete and makes
  it easy to refer to in docs. Previously, extractCredits()
  read the 'type' key outside the loop for CREDIT_ATTRIBS.

* Remove redundant code in ApiBase.php, that is now more obviously
  redundant. Looks like a left-over or merge conflict mistake
  from when ExtensionRegistry was first introduced.

350 languages and its reliability and robust feature set have earned it a large
and vibrant community of third-party users and developers.

MediaWiki is:

* feature-rich and extensible, both on-wiki and with hundreds of extensions;
* scalable and suitable for both small and large sites;
* simple to install, working on most hardware/software combinations; and
* available in your language.

For system requirements, installation, and upgrade details, see the files
RELEASE-NOTES, INSTALL, and UPGRADE.
