Problems with the current setup:
* Each CommentController must have exactly one link.
For T277371 we want multiple, and for T282205 we might want zero.
* CommentController objects must be constructed immediately.
They are implemented to make this pretty fast, but it's still
unnecessary work to do on page load.
* Only one link may be activated at a time, and activating one affects
the styling of others, so CommentController has to use global state
to check if it can set up and to update them.
Instead introduce ReplyLinksController, which knows about all reply
links and which one is active, and emits events that allow
CommentControllers to be constructed on demand.

Considerations:
* Using the same edit notices as VisualEditor, except 'anoneditwarning'
* No extra frame/styling is added (on Wikimedia wikis, the notices
often already have them)
* 'talkpagetext' message is not shown (on Wikimedia wikis, they are
mostly about signing your posts with tildes, which is not necessary)

Previously, our highlights were placed in a node at the end of
the page, and positioned absolutely in relation to the whole
page. Now we insert the highlight in the DOM near the comment,
and position it in relation to that.
This way it remains positioned correctly when the page shifts
(e.g. collapsing the table of contents), and disappears when
the page content is hidden (e.g. opening visual editor).

Per Manuel Arostegui in T263817#7033384. The limit is 5000.
(I picked it arbitrarily, there's no real rationale for it.)
Also log a warning when any user reaches half of the limit,
so that we might make a decision about changing this mechanism
before it starts affecting users. Maybe at that time we'll
have data to show that it's safe to remove the limit.

As of 7ad6328223, we also use this data
to check whether comments exist on the page, not only whether they're
transcluded.

The existing comment IDs can't be used to find the same comment on
a different revision or page (when it's transcluded), because they
depend on the comment's parent and its position on the page.
Comment names depend only on the author and timestamp. The trade-off
is that they can't distinguish comments posted within the same minute,
or in the same edit, so we will still need the IDs sometimes.
Prefer using comment names when replying, if they're not ambiguous.
This fixes T273413 and T275821.
Heading names depend on the author and timestamp of the oldest comment.
This way we don't have to detect changes to the heading text, but we
can't distinguish headings without any comments.

Longer, but follows the style guide and less likely to conflict.
We need to account for init classes in the cache being around for
a while.

If the user is clicking on a new topic link, and a reply widget is
open, attempt to close it instead of doing nothing.

We'd like the [reply] links to behave differently if other
CommentControllers are already active, but each CommentController
doesn't know anything about others; only the main controller.js does.

If the module is loaded on a page where DiscussionTools is
not supposed to be enabled, wgDiscussionToolsFeaturesEnabled
will be undefined, and the code will crash before it can set
the cookie that enables it for future page views.

Don't assume a feature is available because the code has
loaded and the user option is set. Export the logic from
Hooks.php to the client.

1. Extend the JS modifier to allow adding top-level comments
(that is, replies to headings). PHP modifier doesn't do this
because we'll save the changes using paction=addtopic instead.
2. Subclass CommentController to allow adding a new heading and a
top-level comment underneath it at the same time.
3. A lot of ugly code in ReplyWidget to customize the interface
for this case. Much of it should probably be moved to
CommentController/NewTopicController.

* Use a slightly different color
* Use 'mix-blend-mode: multiply' when available to avoid fading
the text color
* Add fade-in animation and make fade-out animation slower

Skipping them could result in incorrect handling when RESTBase HTML is
outdated.
When a result for a given comment is not found, display an error
instead of assuming it is not transcluded.

posted, but it will not change if we posted to a transcluded page.

The output of CommentFormatter::addReplyLinks() and consequently
ThreadItem::jsonSerialize() can end up in the HTTP cache (Varnish) on
Wikimedia wikis. We need to consider that when changing that code.
Introduce a concept of legacy ID (generated by the older algorithm
after it changes), add some placeholder code that will generate them
in the future, and update some code to find comments by either normal
or legacy IDs.
Add dire comments in a bunch of places (as if that ever helps).
