This property is a reference to a static variable with the
same name, initialized at the very top of the file. All
instances of the class use the same cache. They all use the
shared specCache directly, not the reference.

This reverts commit 950a5300dc.
Reason for revert: This broke several workflows. The reason is
that MWParameterPlaceholderPage & MWParameterSearchWidget both
hold references to the MWTemplateModel. This model is not
always the same. The dialog might be the same when a template
is edited multiple times. But the model might be a new one.
From this point on the MWParameterSearchWidget pulls data from
an outdated model.

This does not revert commit 950a5300 but applies the most
minimal hotfix I could come up with.
The reason for the breakage is that MWParameterPlaceholderPage
& MWParameterSearchWidget both hold references to the
MWTemplateModel. This model is not always the same. The dialog
might be the same when a template is edited multiple times.
But the model might be a new one. From this point on the
MWParameterSearchWidget pulls data from an outdated model.
This extra check compares this model reference and creates a
new widget when it changed.

There is a codepath where `modelPromise` is undefined and
calling `modelPromise.then()` fails. This codepath implies
that the dialog is empty and there is nothing to update. We
can just close the dialog then.
I found this while debugging the actions in this dialog.
This happens when the dialog is empty (except for a
placeholder) but you submit it anyway. This is typically
not possible as the button is supposed to be disabled.
Still I think it's a good idea to make this code less
fragile.
The relevant code was introduced in Ibc2fc66 (2016).

These comments don't add any knowledge. The text is either
duplicated, or the method signatur says it already. Having
to read these comments just to realize that they don't give
any additional information is not helpful, even error-prone.

Wait, what's going on here? This patch looks like it changes the
behavior of this code. But it doesn't. Here is what happened
before:
* Let's say a template contains 2 parameters, A and B.
* We don't know yet if these names are aliases.
* getParameterNames() returns [ "A", "B" ].
* extend() is called. The TemplateData documentation contains
the parameters "B" and "C". "C" does have an alias "A".
* extend() can't find "C" and adds it to the end, as if it's a
new parameter.
* extend() also iterates the aliases. For each alias it creates
a reference to the specification object. In this case a
reference from "A" to "C" is created.
* But "A" already exists. The position of "A" doesn't change,
but the specification now says it's an alias.
* getParameterNames() skips aliases. It skips "A" and instead
returns the new "C" from the end of the list.
This was the behavior before. It's unchanged, proven by the tests.

The idea is to not actually store all these default values, but
fall back to the default only when needed.
Some more details:
* The only remaining property is ….name. The only reason to
have this property is to distinguish between aliases and
primary parameter names. This will be reworked in a later
patch.
* The description falls back to null because this is the
documented fallback, not undefined.
* The default value falls back to "", same as the auto-value.
Why not null you might ask. This is intentional. Both the
auto- and default value are effectively wikitext snippets,
while the example is a label in the VE UI.

This is done for two reasons:
1. It fixes the behavior of two methods in rare edge-case
situations. They aren't documented to return undefined.
2. It reduces the amount of stuff this class stores when it's
nothing but a default value anyway. Note this patch does this
for the template-level properties only. Another patch will do
the same for the parameter-level properties.

This reflects much better how this method is meant to behave.
Note I will continue to remove documentation that doesn't
explain anything in addition to what the code already says.

This patch also marks 2 methods as @private that are not and
should not be used outside of this class.
