This change does have two consequences:
1. A few more whitespace characters act as separators. This should not
have any consequence in real life situations, and is mainly done to
make the code easier to read and less surprising.
2. Sequences of two or more whitespace characters previously resulted
in partly *empty* results. This was a potential source of errors. The
additional + fixes this.

Core sanitizes link targets and removes double spaces and underscores.
But the corresponding id="…" attributes are not sanitized the same
way. This results in broken links. This patch is not perfect (two
references with name="a_b" and name="a__b" will conflict), but the
best solution I can think of at the moment.

Adding option for dir attribute in ref tags. The value must be a valid
direction ('ltr' or 'rtl', case insensitive) or the direction will be
stripped out.
The directionality of the li element is set using a css class accordingly.

When using HTML5 ids, we need to take greater care to properly escape the
id (or derived strings) before passing them back through
Parser::recursiveTagParse().

This is based on the popular 'count' parameter from Template:Reflist on
English Wikipedia, which has also been adopted by many other wikis.
That template's 'count' parameter allows maximum flexibility on a per-
page basis. This was important because the template can't know how many
references the list will contain. Users typically manually add (and
later, increment) the 'count' parameter when the list exceeds a certain
threshold.
The template currently sets an exact column count (via the CSS3
property `column-count`).
This patch improves on that by instead using the closely related CSS3
`column-width` property. This automatically derives the column count
based on the available space in the browser window. It will thus create
two or three columns on a typical desktop screen, and two or no columns
on a mobile device.
The specified width is the minimum width of a column. This ensures that
the list is not split when rendered on a narrow screen or mobile device.
It also hooks into the raw list before parsing and adds the class only
when the list will contain more than a certain number of items. This
prevents very short lists from being split into multiple columns.
Templates like Template:Reflist on English Wikipedia currently are not
able to set inline styles on the list element directly, which is why
they set it on a `<div>` wrapping the `<references />` output. Because
of this, the feature of the Cite extension must not be enabled at the
same time, as that would result in both the template's wrapper and the
references list being split. The end result would involve sitations with
three columns split in four sub-columns, creating a complicated mess of
nine intermixed columns.
To provide a smooth migration for wikis, this feature can be disabled by
default using `$wgCiteResponsiveReferences = false`. Each individual
template createing reference list can then be migrated, by removing the
wrapper column styles and instead settting the new "responsive"
attribute, like so: `<references responsive />`.
Once any conflicting templates have been migrated, the default for the
wiki can be swapped by setting `$wgCiteResponsiveReferences = true`.
If wikis wish for some templates to keep their custom column splitting
behaviour, templates can also opt-out by setting `responsive="0"`, which
will make sure that it will keep behaving the current way even after the
feature becomes enabled by default for the wiki.
In summary, when disabled by default, pages can opt into this system
with `<references responsive />`. When enabled by default, pages can opt
out of the system with `<references responsive=0 />`.
* Deprecate cite_references_prefix/cite_references_suffix.
This message is rarely used and opens up compatibility hazards.
It was already removed by Parsoid, but the PHP implementation
still had it. It's typically used to add inline styles to the
wrapper which is more appropiately done in Common.css (or
obsoleted as part of the skin or Cite extenion itself nowadays
depending on what style in question).
It was also a HTML-style message with separated open and close
segments, which is an anti-pattern in itself.
* Declare module target explicitly and include mobile. The absence of
this stylesheet caused subtle BiDi/RTL bugs on mobile.
