Introduced in 2019 with 4c8dac4dc6. Redundant since 2020 with
commit c6c62e2c8f in MediaWiki core.
Bug: T139216
Change-Id: I51e9fc3899cf5505917d7899a395350dd86f5c0b
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the end because they are outdated.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.

And more db clean ups:
- Use QueryBuilders
- Stop relying on actor migration to simplify query building
- Using expression builder in one case.
- Change the default actor migration stage to read new and write both.

Change-Id: I6075c76d53a899aac56af027f9a956a6b9e6a667
Why:
* The AbuseLogger::insertLocalLogEntries calls the CheckUser
extension to insert the abuse filter log entries, so that
checkusers can see these log entries in the results.
* However, these logs can be inserted on GET requests (such as
when a filter matched a autocreation of an account). This means
that the TransactionProfiler warns about writes.
* Updating the writes to occur on POSTSEND and also silencing the
expectations about not performing write queries should prevent
the logstash spam being caused by the TransactionProfiler related
to this code.
What:
* Make the call to Hooks::updateCheckUserData occur on POSTSEND
instead of PRESEND.
* Silence the TransactionProfiler for 'EXPECTATION_REPLICAS_ONLY'
only for the call to Hooks::updateCheckUserData.

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.

This patch solves a pending TODO which is to remove the ::factory()
method from the AutoPromoteGroupsHandler class. If the cache instance
is injected, we'll use it otherwise we'll default to a HashBagOStuff.
Bug: T358346
Change-Id: I2bc414da8733431d1d11025e954282fc7c73aa80
Why:
* In f3c87749b8, the sending of logs
to CheckUser when using a temporary account was fixed. As part
of that change, it was suggested to add a test to verify that
the call to `Hooks::updateCheckUserData` actually causes an
insert into the relevant CheckUser result table.
* This change adds this test as a follow-up.
What:
* Create a test for the AbuseLogger that verifies that an event is
sent to CheckUser and is saved into the DB for an abuse filter
hit. This test is only run if the CheckUser extension is installed.
Bug: T358632
Change-Id: I33ed0810db13e38eacf4e682eb54d4ffcd583084
Why:
* AbuseFilter can send AbuseFilter logs to CheckUser if they are
not being sent to Special:RecentChanges.
* However, if this action is indirectly causing the creation of
an account (such as through temporary account auto-creation),
the log entry is sent to CheckUser before the temporary account
actually exists in the 'user' table.
* This causes a CannotCreateActorException, as the performer does
not exist on the wiki just yet and therefore cannot have an
actor ID until the temporary account is created.
* This exception can happen if the AbuseFilter filter only creates
a log entry and does not prevent the edit, so would not be
necessarily fixed by T334623.
* Sending the logs to CheckUser on PRESEND avoids this, as the
user will exist by the time that PRESEND is run but still allows
any failures to cause an exception which can be seen by the user.
What:
* Wrap the call to Hooks::updateCheckUserData in AbuseLogger
::insertLocalLogEntries in a DeferredUpdate which is set to run
on PRESEND.
