After temporary accounts are enabled, filters that rely on an ip
in the `user_name` will fail (eg. `ip_in_range` and `ip_in_ranges`).
To keep these filters working:
- Expose the IP through another variable, `user_unnamed_ip`, that can be
used instead of `user_name`.
- The variable is scoped to only reveal the IPs of temporary accounts
and un-logged in users.
- Wikis that don't have temporary accounts enabled will be able to see
this variable but it won't provide information that `user_name`
wasn't already providing
- Introduce the concept of transforming variable values before writing
to the blob store and after retrieval, as IPs need to be deleted from
the logs eventually and can't be stored as-is in the amend-only blob
store

Make the order of the messages that describe
operators and functions in the en.json file
identical to their order in
KeywordManager::BUILDER_VALUES, which is also
their order in the actual UI of the filter editor.
This only reorders the mesages in the en.json file.
It's not supposed to change anything in
the end users' experience, but it will change
the order in which translators on translatewiki.net
see them.
This is a cleanup step towards removing
the explicit operators from the messages,
as suggested in T360909, and this reordering
is hopefully useful even without that change,
for general consistency.
Comments about particular messages:
* abusefilter-edit-builder-vars-timestamp-expanded
is moved to the very end because, despite its key,
it's not actually used in the filter builder.
* old-text, old-html, and minor-edit are moved towards
the end because they are outdated. They are listed
separately from BUILDER_VALUES and they are not used
in the filter builder UI, but they are used in the logs
of previous actions. This patch adds a code comment
for the benefit of developers who touch that code
in the future.

Why:
* An AbuseFilter variable is needed that allows filters to determine
what type the current user is. That is, whether the user is an
IP address, temporary account, named user or external user.
* Currently filters implement this by inspecting the value in
the 'user_name' variable, but this is likely to break when
temporary accounts are enabled as IPs would be hidden.
* Giving a dedicated variable that indicates the type of the user
allows filters to work out this information without having to
know the specific username of the user before performing the
check.
What:
* Add the 'user_type' variable which is lazily computed. It can have
the value 'named', 'temp', 'ip' or 'external' depending on the
type of the user. If the user does not match any of these, then
the value is 'unknown'.
* Replace call to deprecated User::newFromIdentity with a use of the
UserFactory service that is dependency injected.
* Add and update tests to ensure consistent test coverage.

Added support for ip_in_ranges which allow multiple ranges to be
checked at the same time. If the IP is in any of the ranges, the
function returns true.

The hook names contain a dash, which is mapped to an underscore by the
hook runner (see Ie8c8fb603b33ff95c8f8d52f392227f147c528d8), and the
previous method names weren't matching this.

This was also long overdue. Also fix a bug that caused page creations to
not be shown when examining past edits (using rc_last_oldid doesn't work
for page creations).

This will decouple a bit the huge and chaotic tangle of AF classes. Some
boilerplate code for AbuseFilter services is also added with this patch.
Note that this requires injecting a KeywordsManager in
AbuseFilterVariableHolder, or unit tests would fail. This is still
incomplete, and the Manager is only injected in tests, because
VariableHolder still has to be refactored.
The test for the UpdateVarDumps script had to be updated, because
serializing VHs in there was a bad choice. As pointed out in a comment,
the test is likely going to break again once we remove the BC code, but
I hope that we'll be able to remove the test at that point.
