Introduce PopupsAnonsExperimentalGroupSize config variable. This defines
a population size who will be subject to experimentation. If the group
size is undefined or 0 (default) and PopupsBetaFeature is false
(default value) Popups will be enabled for everyone. If it is any other
value, half that group will see page previews.
Drop the config variable PopupsSchemaSamplingRate - we will now only
EventLog when an experiment is occuring. This means we can simplify the
MWEventLogger class as shouldLog will always be truthy. Given server
side eventlogging is only used for preference changes
traffic should be low and not need sampling.
Introduce getUserBucket which determines whether a user is in a bucket
on, off or control based on the value of
PopupsAnonsExperimentalGroupSize. Add tests showing how these
buckets are calculated.
Caution:
A kill switch wgPopupsEventLogging is provided for safety.
It defaults to false. Before merging, please check if any config changes
are necessary.

Why: Because they are the approved standard by TC39 and Ecma for
JavaScript modules.
Changes:
* Wrap mw-node-qunit in run.js to register babel to transpile modules
for node v6
* Change all sources in src/ to use ES modules
* Change constants.js to be able to run without
jQuery.bracketedDevicePixelRatio given ES modules are hoisted to
the top by spec so we can't patch globals before importing it
* Change all tests in tests/node-qunit/ to use ES modules
* Drop usage of mock-require given ES modules are easy to stub with
sinon
Additional changes:
* Rename tests/node-qunit/renderer.js to renderer.test.js to follow
the convention of all the other files
* Make npm run test:node run only .test.js test files so that it
doesn't run the stubs.js or run.js file.

The setup and teardown hooks on QUnit.module are deprecated on the
latest versions.
See https://api.qunitjs.com/QUnit/module
mw-node-qunit supports them but we shouldn't be using them.

For logging to work:
1. $wgWMEStatsdBaseUri needs to point to a valid statsv endpoint,
e.g. 'https://en.wikipedia.org/beacon/statsv'.
2. $wgPopupsStatsvSamplingRate needs to be set. Note that the codebase
already contains the EventLogging functionality, which is configured
separately. Separately configuring different logging mechanisms
allows us to avoid sampling mistakes that may arise while choosing
one or the other. For example, let's say we want to use EventLogging for
10% of users and statsv for 5%. We'd sample all users into two
buckets: 50/50. And then we'd have to set the sampling rates as
20% and 10% respectively, only because of the bucketing above. To avoid
this kind of complications, separate sampling rates are used for each
logging mechanism. This, of course, may result in situations where a
session is logged via both EventLogging and statsv.
3. The WikimediaEvents extension needs to be installed. The extension
adds the `ext.wikimediaEvents` module to the output page. The
logging functionality is delegated to this module.
Notable changes:
* The FETCH_START and FETCH_END actions are converted to a timed action.
* The experiments stub used in tests has been extracted to the stubs
file.

* Logged in users bypass bucketing. They keep working as before.
* When Page Previews is configured as a beta feature, logged out users
won't see the feature.
* If an anonymous user has enabled/disabled the feature using
the settings cog then they will see or not see the feature
depending on the value of their setting.
* The other anonymous users are bucketed. By default 90% of these
users see the feature, the other 10% don't. These numbers can be
controlled by the config variable `wgPopupsAnonsEnabledSamplingRate`.
