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.).

For the most part, it is a good idea to avoid global variables and use
`local` variables instead. Quoting from the ScopeTutorial[1], "The
general rule is to always use local variables, unless it's necessary for
every part of your program to be able to access the variable (which is
very rare)."
Wikimedia module authors have written "Module:No globals", which errors
on the use of any global variable. On the English Wikipedia, this is
used on 32% of pages (18 million). Wikidata[2] indicates that it's been
copied to 334 other wikis.
Lua itself distributes an extra named "strict.lua"[3], which is what
this is based off of. Similar to bit32.lua, this is a pure-Lua library
that can be imported/enabled with `require( "strict" )` at the top of a
module.
The two changes I made from Lua's strict is to exempt the `arg` key,
which is used internally by Scribunto, and remove `what()`, since we
don't enable access to `debug.getinfo()` for security reasons.

Pages ending with a ".json" suffix in the Module namespace will use the
built-in JSON content model by default. Previously editors had to use
Special:ChangeContentModel to get a JSON page, which requires the
"editcontentmodel" userright that is not granted to a wide set of users
by default.

* This patch builds on core functionality provided in
Ied0295feab06027a8df885b3215435e596f0353b.
* This removes any nowiki wrappers present in unstripped text
(which there would be for preprocssed nowiki tags) which mimics
the effect of procssing nowikis in core when generating HTML.
* Updated lua tests to verify the new expectation.
* A previously failing parser test added to test T272507 now passes
and has been re-enabled.

As well as:
* Remove redundant `=== null`. The `isset()` before does this already.
* Use convenient PHPUnit shortcuts.

::doUserEditContent() is available since 1.36 as a replacement
for ::doEditContent(), which has been deprecated. Bump the
required version of MediaWiki to 1.36 accordingly.
Results in passing a user where previously the fallback
to $wgUser was being used.

Use $wgInterwikiCache to setup interwiki prefixes for testing instead
of the deprecated InterwikiLoadPrefix hook. This simplifies the test
setup quite a bit as well.
