Why:
* On wikis with lots of bot activity like Wikidata, there is a large
volume of edits which can potentially create an article-linked
notification. These notifications are now actually rarely sent
because they are disabled for bots (T318523). However, the event
record is always inserted into the database, with no reference to
it, bloating the database.
What:
* Do not unconditionally insert an event into the database when
Event::create is called. Pass it to downstream calls and have
it inserted when it's clear it will actually be needed (i.e.,
a notification is definitely going to be created).
* Pass the event's payload to the job queue instead of requiring
its ID. Introduce Event::newFromArray, which unlike ::loadFromRow
handles ::toDbArray values that haven't been inserted into
the database yet.
* Introduce Event::acquireId which ensures the event has been
inserted prior to returning its ID as well as it does not get
re-inserted.

get_debug_type() does the same thing but better (spelling type names
in the same way as in type declarations, and including names of
object classes and resource types). It was added in PHP 8, but the
symfony/polyfill-php80 package provides it while we still support 7.4.
Also remove uses of get_class() where the new method already provides
the same information.

Most notably:
* Use the much more narrow UserIdentity interface where possible.
* Make array type hints in PHPDocs as specific as possible.

We are getting rid of the schema of implementing this interface and
calling self::READ_* constants, it's confusing, inconsistent, prone to
clashes and isn't really useful for non-ORM systems (which we are not)

Most notably, CatchableFatalErrorException and the code that throws it
are unused since Ic5712c4ce265b6faabce7a4028b4294fe3c73f18 (in 2016).
