Core change I2793a3f2 changes API handling in a way that needs updates
to extensions for proper operation:
* needsToken() now returns a string
* Most custom token types are being replaced with a 'csrf' token (the
former 'edit' token); any others need a new hook.
* All tokens must use a static salt. Compat with web UI using non-static
tokens is supported and also serves to handle the now-deprecated token
fetching.
* Documentation in getParamDescription() should return a string (not
array) for 'token', as the signal to core that it should be replaced
with a standardized message.
When compatibility with earlier versions of MediaWiki is no longer
maintained, the entry for 'token' from getAllowedParams() and
getParamDescription() may be removed, as may getTokenSalt(). This patch
leaves them in place.
Note this is intended to be compatible with earlier versions of
MediaWiki, and so should be safe to merge before the core change.

* In some languages like persian, the number 0 is represented as '.', we can't compare
'.' with either 0 or '0' to detect the no-notification status of the badge
* The markread API doesn't respect uselang param, it would return 0 instead of . in a url with uselang=fa
Note: we need to provide raw and formatted count in the API since client side javascript
doesn't provide fancy function like $wgLang->formatNum()
