Backporting this so the LTS release has forwards compatibility with
Wikipedia templates.
mw.loadData() allows for optimizing the loading Lua tables by requiring
only one parse and lookup. However it's often easier for people to
write/maintain bulk data in JSON rather than Lua tables.
mw.loadJsonData() has roughly the same characteristics as mw.loadData()
and it can be used on JSON content model pages in any namespace.
As noted on the linked bug report, it's possible to already implement
this by writing a wrapper Lua module that loads and parses the JSON
content. But that requires a dummy module for each JSON page, which is
just annoying and inconvenient.
Test cases are copied from the mw.loadData() ones, with a few omissions
for syntax not supported in JSON (e.g. NaN, infinity, etc.).

(cherry picked from commit 1000d322e5)
This reverts commit 62e1fb0b5f.
Reason for revert: caused several errors:
* unnamespaced HooksTest collides with core’s class of the same name
* Scribunto_LuaError renamed without class alias despite being used in Wikibase

This means that these tests are only run for test runs on this repo,
and will not be run when this repo is included in CI as a dependency
of any other repos, or the Wikimedia-wide gate. Any changes to other
repos are implicitly assumed to be unable to break these tests.

This triggers a needed reparse when a new page is created using a module
that accesses the page ID.

Clear up a bunch of phpcs ignores by documenting many methods.
Also remove Scribunto_LuaError::setLineMap(), which has apparently never
been used since it was added in Ia51f439e.

And use the unit test base on most of the tests, except the ones that need
database. This makes tests considerably faster.
