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).

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.

This service should act as a mediator between the AF code and the
permission manager, and it should know what are the permissions required
by each action.

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.
