Same as Icfa8215 where we removed the …_suffix messages.
This patch is not blocked on anything according to CodeSearch:
https://codesearch.wmcloud.org/search/?q=cite_references%3F_link_prefix
According to GlobalSearch there are 2 usages we need to talk about:
https://global-search.toolforge.org/?q=.®ex=1&namespaces=8&title=Cite.references%3F.link.prefix.*
zh.wiktionary replaces "cite_ref-" with "_ref-", and "cite_note-"
with "_note-", i.e. they did nothing but remove the word "cite". This
happened in 2006, with no explanation.
ka.wikibooks and ka.wikiquote replace "cite_note-" with "_შენიშვნა-",
which translates back to "_note-". One user did this in 2007,
16 seconds apart.
It appears like both are attempts to localize what can be localized,
no matter if it's really necessary or not.

Note how one user experimented with an "a" in some of the edits to
see what effect the change might have, to imediatelly revert it.
The modifications don't really have an effect on anything, except on
the anchors in the resulting <a href="#_ref-5"> and <sup id="_ref-5">
HTML. It might also be briefly visible in the browser's address bar
when such a link is clicked. We can only assume the two users did this
to make the URL appear shorter (?). A discussion apparently never
happened. Bot users are inactive.
Both pieces of HTML are generated in the Cite code. Removing the
messages will change all places the same time. All links will
continue to work. The only possible effect is that hard-coded
weblinks to an individual reference will link to the top of the
article instead. But:
a) This is extremely unlikely to happen. There is no reason to link
to a reference from outside of the article.
b) Such links are not guaranteed to work anyway as they can break
for a multitude of other reasons, e.g. the <ref> being renamed,
removed, or replaced.
c) Even if such a link breaks, it still links to the correct article.
There is also no on-wiki code on zh.wiktionary that would do anything
with the shortened prefix:
https://zh.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?search=insource%3A%2F_%28ref%7Cnote%29-%2F&title=Special%3A%E6%90%9C%E7%B4%A2&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns2=1&ns4=1&ns8=1&ns10=1&ns12=1&ns828=1&ns2300=1
I argue this is safe to remove, even without contacting the mentioned
communities first.

This fixes a minor issue introduced in I294b59f. Two identical
dir="…" with different capitalizations should not be reported as an
error.
Turns out the implementation in the Cite extension doesn't care
about this capitalization at all. That's why I suggest to do the
normalization as early as possible. This is slightly different in
the Parsoid implementation.

Check out how this gets rid of so many "to do" as well as
"deprecated" comments.
Next qustion: The elements in the stack become more and more
complicated. It's probably worth converting them from arrays into
first-class objects. But this is for another patch.

Same arguments as in Iafa2412. The one reason to use more detailled
per-method @covers annotations is to avoid "accidental coverage"
where code is marked as being covered by tests that don't assert
anything that would be meaningful for this code. This is especially a
problem with older, bigger classes with lots of side effects.
But all the new classes we introduced over the years are small, with
predictable, local effects.
That's also why we keep the more detailled @covers annotations for
the original Cite class.

Sanitizer::safeEncodeAttribute() calls currently make this
impossible.

This patch only moves existing code around without changing any
behavior. What I basically did was merging the old "guardedReferences"
method into "references", and then splitting the resulting code in
other ways. Now we see a few other concepts emerging. But the idea
something would be "guarded" (how?) is gone.
The most critical detail in this patch are the new method names, and
how the code is split. The names should tell a story, and the methods
should do exactly what the name says. Suggestions?

This removes almost 200 lines from the main class.
This patch intentionally doesn't make any changes to the code but
only moves it around. Further improvements are for later patches.

The main benefit is that the two lines that set and reset
$this->inReferencesGroup are now next to each other. More can be
done in later patches.

This moves the actual parsing down to be done much later in the
process. This won't make any difference in production but makes it
easier to refactor the code further.
Note I tried to use a StatusValue object but couldn't because it
merges seemingly identical messages, while the plain array is fine
with containing duplicates. There is one parser test that covers
this. While we could change this it needs discussion and most
probably a PM decision.

Two problems:
1. Manipulating globals directly affects all following tests. They
are not independent from each other. This problem can be seen in
CiteTest.
2. Some test cases in testValidateRef don't test what you think.
For example, the test for a conflicting "extends" + "follow" was not
failing because of the conflict but because "extends" was disabled
and disallowed.

This patch makes only sense together with I5a64ac4 where it is split
from. See I5a64ac4 for details.
The idea is that this patch just re-arranges the code without making
any changes to how the code behaves. This leaves a minimal change
behind that's much easier to revert, if needed.
Bug: T298278

This patch does two things:
1. The "normalization" function was never only doing normalization,
but also all the necessary HTML encoding. This is now more visible
and split into two separate functions.
2. To make this easier we change the order slightly. Because of this
the normalization step must now consider spaces. Before spaces have
been converted to underscores by escapeIdForLink.
The results are all the exact same as before.
This is split from I5a64ac4 to make that easier to review.

This parser test is a bit obscure, in my opinion. We added it in
I8c4de96 to make sure we don't get thousand separators in most
places.
We continued reworking the code since then. By now it's effectively
impossible to "accidentally" get thousand separators. The
problematic methods from the Language class are not even accessible
any more from this code.
To make the tests more robust we now use createNoOpMock (done via
the previous patch) where it matters, specifically for all Language
and Parser mocks. This proves the problematic Language methods are
never called.
