What:
Add a hook that runs before a save attempt is made in
ApiVisualEditorEdit. The hook receives the same data available in
ApiVisualEditorEdit, and implementations of the hook can modify the API
response.
Why:
VE plugins may send additional data when saving an edit, and extensions
might want to prevent the save from taking place based on that
additional data.
See for example the AddLink plugin in Ic8225933c9, where the save is
blocked if link suggestions don't exist in the database at save time.

What:
Add hook that runs after a save attempt is made in ApiVisualEditorEdit.
The hook receives the same data available in ApiVisualEditorEdit, and
implementations of the hook can modify the API response.
Also introduce templated
parameters (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Templated_parameters) in
the API parameters; this allows plugins to pass arbitrary data along
with their request using e.g. plugins=linkrecommendation&data-linkrecommendation=foo
Add ServiceWiring files, a PHP namespace, and a HookRunner class to
support the above changes.
Why:
VE plugins may wish to send additional data when saving an edit and take
action based on that data on the server-side. See for example the
AddLink plugin in I7a052f8e which sends annotation data, and then uses
the new hook to perform a database operation.
