EditPage has a lovely getCheckboxes() function which includes the
minor and watch checkboxes as rendered by MW core, as well as any
checkboxes extensions like FlaggedRevs might have added. Output
these in the API, render them, and send their values back.
ApiVisualEditor.php:
* Build a fake EditPage, get its checkboxes, and return them
ApiVisualEditorEdit.php:
* Pass through posted request data to ApiEdit, which passes it
through to EditPage thanks to Idab5b524b0e3 in core
ve.init.mw.ViewPageTarget.js:
* Remove minor and watch checkboxes from the save dialog template
and replace them with a generic checkbox container
* Have getSaveOptions() pull the state of all checkboxes in
** Special-case minor and watch, and pass the rest straight through
** Move normalization from true/false to presence/absence here, from
ve.init.mw.Target.prototype.save(), because here we know which ones
are checkboxes and we don't know that in save() without
special-casing
* Remove getSaveDialogHtml(), we don't need to hide checkboxes based on
rights anymore because in that case the API just won't send them to us.
** Moved logic for checking the watch checkbox down to where the same
logic for the minor checkbox already is
* Unwrap getSaveDialogHtml() in setupSaveDialog()
* Access minor and watch by their new IDs throughout
ve.init.mw.Target.js:
* Get and store checkboxes from the API
* Pass all keys straight through to the API

This allows us to make the token no longer a requirement
for non-save actions while still using the built-in system
for token verification.
Update documentation for "oldid" since it is not required even
outside (paction=save). In fact, if we require it VE loading
fails because it doesn't pass oldid unless it has to when
restoring a specific version.
