This service is responsible for the blockautopromote feature:
(un)block autopromotion and check status.
The patch mostly moves code from static methods to the new class
and relaxes type hints (e.g. from User to UserIdentity).

This commit avoids direct queries on the DB, which is already an
improvement. It also adds some TODO comments for future improvements,
mostly things that depend on core changes.

There's no point in repeating the action name, because it's already used
as key. We can then flatten the array and just keep the parameters in
the third nesting level.

So that sysadmins can further customize the extension. It was also wrong
to use the same variable for many different things.
Note that there's no associated patch in wmf-config because we use the
defaults. However, before merging this patch, please recheck that
AbuseFilterRestrictions and AbuseFilterDisallowGlobalLocalBlocks aren't
used there (https://codesearch.wmflabs.org/operations/?q=AbuseFilterDisallowGlobalLocalBlocks%7CAbuseFilterRestrictions&i=nope&files=&repos=)

The logic about action IDs and the persistent buffer is now encapsulated
inside a single service, which is a step towards getting rid of global
state in the AbuseFilter class, and reducing the responsibilities of the
Runner.
An important change made here is that we now require a LinkTarget rather
than a Title. This removes a dependency on the Title class (a monster
object), makes tests simpler, and denies the need to inject a
TitleFactory. This means living without some bits of context (e.g. we're
no longer using makeTitleSafe to ensure a valid title, and we have to
build a "prefixedtext" manually), but this shouldn't be a problem, given
that the titles are only used to create a cache key: invalid titles are
not a problem, and concatenating namespace + title should always be
sufficient.

It doesn't make much sense to try to remove implicit groups like 'user'
and '*'. As a matter of fact, these groups are also excluded in
AbuseFilterViewRevert when undoing degroups.

The first one is UserGroupManager, used for the 'degroup' action. This
is a simple one-line replacement (repeated twice), and the current code
was already using this service under the hood.
The second one is BlockUser, which is not a one-line change (but still
quite simple). In particular, this allows us to avoid duplication with
core logic when constructing the log entry (this is now done by
BlockUser).

This code was simply caching the AbuseFilter::$tagsToSet property, but
this is not necessary. The only tag that can be buffered during edit
stashing is the conds limit tag. So we just save whether the conds limit
was hit, and apply the tag from a single point afterwards.
Also avoid checking whether 'tag' is enabled as an action, since this tag
should always be added when applicable.
Next step is creating some sort of Watcher service that will do
everything on its own: check whether the limit was hit, save this
information, and tag the action later.

These methods had no reals reason to be static and belong to the
AbuseFilter class. Most of them were moved to Parser class as common
variations of the existing entry points. One was specific to the
EvalExpression API module and was moved there.
This change comes at no cost, and will make it possible to inject a
parser where needed.

Rather than always using 5 days, the length (in days) can be configured by setting
`AbuseFilterBlockAutopromoteDuration` to the desired length.

This code was introduced with Iba59fe8d190dd338ecc8cfd682205bce33c9738b
and is unused since then. The name should highlight that those variables are not
supposed to be "static", i.e. immutable. Examples are: timestamp, spam
blacklist, site name, site language. These are not immutable, but rather
"generic", and they're known even without an ongoing action.
Also add an RC row param and update docs.

This is another step needed to reduce the size of the gigantic
AbuseFilter and AbuseFilterHooks classes. It also makes many methods
non-static, for more testability.
Note, this layout is still not final. We should somehow merge the
functionality of VariableGenerator and AFComputedVariable, for which
I already have plans.

This is a preparatory step for T234427 (although not strictly related),
and in the future it will enable us not to use the DB in several tests.

This patch is mostly replacing Revision::* constants,
Wikimedia\(restore|suppress)Warnings, and wfWikiId.

This will help mitigating problems like T230256 by enforcing that the
requested variables must exist. For now, it will only log bad usages,
thus providing a way to identify affected filters and fix them.

IMHO these can be considered unit tests; they were already fast, but now
they're executed in an instant.
This requires several changes: 1 - delay retrieving messages in
AFPUserVisibleException, to avoid having to deal with i18n whenever we
want to test exceptions; 2 - Use some DI for Parser and Tokenizer.
Equivset-dependend tests are also moved to a new class, thus helping to
fix the AF part of T189560.

Some of these are transformed into real unit tests, while the
AbuseFilterSaveTest class is refactored to avoid using the DB and to use
a lot more of mocks and DI.

Problems fixed:
- Don't hardcode duration in the message
- Move duration to a constant
- Fix wrong parameter order for AbuseFilter::blockAutopromote
- Log a warning if we cannot block autopromotion
- Remove the $performer parameter, as it should only and always be the
filter user.

Instead of returning a successful message, return null and log a
warning. Also, make autopromoteBlockKey public + internal and use it
from Hooks instead of duplicating the logic.

As for all mostly unused consequences, blockautopromote has a couple of
major problems: first, it blocked the status for a random time between 3
and 7 days, which to me makes no sense at all (is it some sort of
casino?), and this patch fixes it to 5 days. Second, nothing was logged,
not the blocking nor the unblocking. Here I'm adding a LogHandler for
two new sub-actions of 'rights' to keep track of both action.
