The EventEmitter API we inherited from Node.js and then bastardized was
getting awkward and cumbersome. The number of uses of ve.bind was getting
out of control, and removing events meant caching the bound method in a
property. Many of the "features" of EventEmitter wasn't even being used,
some causing overhead, others just causing bloat. This change cleans up
how EventEmitter is used throughout the codebase.
The new event emitter API includes:
* emit - identical to the previous API, no longer throws an error if you
emit error without a handler
* once - identical to the previous API, still introduces a wrapper* on -
compatible with the previous API but has some new features
* off - identical to removeListener in the previous API
* connect - very similar to addListenerMethods but doesn't wrap callbacks
in closures anymore
* disconnect - new, basically the opposite of addListenerMethods
Another change that is made in this commit is mixing in rather than
inheriting from EventEmitter.
Finally, there are changes throughout the codebase anywhere
connect/disconnect could be used.

Add a static.name property to ce nodes and make sure both ce
and dm nodes always use the static.name property in constructors
and registration calls.
The result of this is that any given node type should now only
appear once in the code as a string.

* Made method descriptions imperative: "Do this" rather than "Does this"
* Changed use of "this object" to "the object" in method documentation
* Added missing documentation
* Fixed incorrect documentation
* Fixed incorrect debug method names (as in those VeDmClassName tags we add to functions so they make sense when dumped into in the console)

See CODING.md for how to run it.
Mistakes fixed:
* Warning: Unknown type function

* Warning: Unknown type DOMElement
-> HTMLElement
* Warning: Unknown type DOM Node
-> HTMLElement
* Warning: Unknown type Integer
-> Mixed
* Warning: Unknown type Command
-> ve.Command
* Warning: Unknown type any

* Warning: Unknown type false
-> boolean
* Warning: Unknown type ve.dm.AlienNode
ve.dm doesn't have a generic AlienNode like ve.ce
-> Unknown type ve.dm.AlienInlineNode|ve.dm.AlienBlockNode
* Warning: Unknown type ve.ve.Surface
-> ve.ce.Surface
* ve.example.lookupNode:
-> Last @param should be @return
* ve.dm.Transaction.prototype.pushReplace:
-> @param {Array] should be @param {Array}
* Warning: ve.BranchNode.js:27: {@link ve.Node#hasChildren} links to non-existing member
-> (removed)
* Warning: ve.LeafNode.js:21: {@link ve.Node#hasChildren} links to non-existing member
-> (removed)
Differences fixed:
* Variadic arguments are like @param {Type...} [name]
instead of @param {Type} [name...]
* Convert all file headers from /** to /*! because JSDuck tries
to parse all /** blocks and fails to parse with all sorts of
errors for "Global property", "Unnamed property", and
"Duplicate property".
Find: \/\*\*([^@]+)(@copyright)
Replace: /*!$1$2
* Indented blocks are considered code examples.
A few methods had documentation with numbered lists that were
indented, which have now been updated to not be intended.
* The free-form text descriptions are parsed with Markdown,
which requires lists to be separated from paragraphs by an
empty line.
And we should use `backticks` instead of {braces} for inline
code in text paragraphs.
* Doc blocks for classes and their constructor have to be
in the correct order (@constructor, @param, @return must be
before @class, @abstract, @extends etc.)
* `@extends Class` must not have Class {wrapped}
* @throws must start with a {Type}
* @example means something else. It is used for an inline demo
iframe, not code block. For that simply indent with spaces.
* @member means something else.
Non-function properties are marked with @property, not @member.
* To create a link to a class or member, in most cases the name
is enough to create a link. E.g. Foo, Foo.bar, Foo.bar#quux,
where a hash stands for "instance member", so Foo.bar#quux,
links to Foo.bar.prototype.quux (the is not supported, as
"prototype" is considered an implementation detail, it only
indexes class name and method name).
If the magic linker doesn't work for some case, the
verbose syntax is {@link #target label}.
* @property can't have sub-properties (nested @param and @return
values are supported, only @static @property can't be nested).
We only have one case of this, which can be worked around by
moving those in a new virtual class. The code is unaltered
(only moved down so that it isn't with the scope of the main
@class block). ve.dm.TransactionProcessor.processors.
New:
* @mixins: Classes mixed into the current class.
* @event: Events that can be emitted by a class. These are also
inherited by subclasses. (+ @param, @return and @preventable).
So ve.Node#event-attach is inherited to ve.dm.BreakNode,
just like @method is.
* @singleton: Plain objects such as ve, ve.dm, ve.ce were missing
documentation causing a tree error. Documented those as a
JSDuck singleton, which they but just weren't documented yet.
NB: Members of @singleton don't need @static (if present,
triggers a compiler warning).
* @chainable: Shorthand for "@return this". We were using
"@return {classname}" which is ambiguous (returns the same
instance or another instance?), @chainable is specifically
for "@return this". Creates proper labels in the generated
HTML pages.
Removed:
* @mixin: (not to be confused with @mixins). Not supported by
JSDuck. Every class is standalone anyway. Where needed marked
them @class + @abstract instead.

* Commands for Sublime:
Find*: "(\* @[a-z]+) ([^{].*) \{(.*)\}"
Replace: "$1 {$3} $2"
Save all && Close all
Find: " function("
Replace: " function ("
Save all && Close all
Find: "Intialization"
Replace: "Initialization"
Save all && Close all
* Consistent use of types (documented in CODING.rm):
- Merged {Integer} into {Number}.
- Merged {DOM Node} into {DOMElement}.
* Remove work-around /*jshint newcap: false */ from ve.js
Calling Object() as a function to to use the internal
toObject no longer throws a newcap warning in JSHint.
It only does that normal functions now .
(e.g. var a = Cap(); or var a = new uncap();)
* Add missing annotations (@static, @method, ..).
* Remove unused variables
* Remove null-assignments to variables that should just be
undefined. There's a few variables explicitly set to null
whereas they are set a few lines under and not used otherwise
(e.g. 'tx' in ve.ce.Surface.prototype.onPaste)

* For the most common case:
- replace ve.extendClass with ve.inheritClass (chose slightly
different names to detect usage of the old/new one, and I
like 'inherit' better).
- move it up to below the constructor, see doc block for why.
* Cases where more than 2 arguments were passed to
ve.extendClass are handled differently depending on the case.
In case of a longer inheritance tree, the other arguments
could be omitted (like in "ve.ce.FooBar, ve.FooBar,
ve.Bar". ve.ce.FooBar only needs to inherit from ve.FooBar,
because ve.ce.FooBar inherits from ve.Bar).
In the case of where it previously had two mixins with
ve.extendClass(), either one becomes inheritClass and one
a mixin, both to mixinClass().
No visible changes should come from this commit as the
instances still all have the same visible properties in the
end. No more or less than before.
* Misc.:
- Be consistent in calling parent constructors in the
same order as the inheritance.
- Add missing @extends and @param documentation.
- Replace invalid {Integer} type hint with {Number}.
- Consistent doc comments order:
@class, @abstract, @constructor, @extends, @params.
- Fix indentation errors
A fairly common mistake was a superfluous space before the
identifier on the assignment line directly below the
documentation comment.
$ ack "^ [^*]" --js modules/ve
- Typo "Inhertiance" -> "Inheritance".
- Replacing the other confusing comment "Inheritance" (inside
the constructor) with "Parent constructor".
- Add missing @abstract for ve.ui.Tool.
- Corrected ve.FormatDropdownTool to ve.ui.FormatDropdownTool.js
- Add function names to all @constructor functions. Now that we
have inheritance it is important and useful to have these
functions not be anonymous.

Makes the difference between
< documentNode;

...

: Object
...
without names (current situation):
< documentNode;
> Object
...
: Object
...
: Object

though before this commit, it really looks like this
(flattened since ve.extendClass really did a mixin):
< documentNode;
> Object
...

This license change is aimed at maximizing the reusability of this code
in other projects. VisualEditor is more than just an awesome editor for
MediaWiki, it's the new editor for the entire internet.
Added license and author files, plus mentions of the license to all
VisualEditor PHP, JavaScript and CSS files. Parser files have not been
modified but are effectively re-licensed since there's no overriding
license information. 3rd party libraries are not changed, but are all
already MIT licensed.
