This code was for when the dialog had a trash can icon for every
parameter, and parameters could actually be deleted. It's unreachable
now.
We missed this when removing the old workflow.

This was done in 3 rather "random" places:
1. Whenever a template is manually added. But rather late, after the
template was added, in an event handler that is about focus
behavior. It should not continue to manipulate the template that
was just added.
2. When the dialog opens with a template preloaded by name, as it is
done from the citation menu.
3. When the dialog is about to finish loading.
This patch fixes 2 issues:
* Get rid of a duplicate call (number 2 and 3) when using the
citation menu.
* Move number 1 to a place where it's executed much earlier, and
only when the user clicks "add template" in a template placeholder.
There is no other way to add a template to an existing transclusion,
but it's still a more appropriate place I feel.

Before the (intentional) design decision was to not do anything special
when the same parameter is used multiple times (via aliases). Garbage
in, garbage out. Only the first usage of the parameter would work as
intended. The rest was ignored and subsequently removed from the
wikitext.
New design decision: Track and display duplicates as they appear in the
wikitext.
Notes:
* It's not possible to create such a situation in VE. Do this via
wikitext.
* Labels will be made distinguishable via T309198.
* Possible warning messages will be added later.
* The behavior when unchecking a duplicate will be specified later.

The previous comment was true, but we forgot another edge-case. The
same parameter can appear multiple times. The old code tried to
delete it 2 times, which deleted something else.
Note that the behavior for duplicates is larely unspecified. We
will work on this soon. This is only a first quick step to fix this
specific bug.

Such comments don't add any new information. The method signature
alone already tells the full story.
We did this already to a lot of the template related code we touched.
This is just a bit of cleanup to make it consistent.

This patch improves the error handling for when a user tries to add
a parameter which is either an alias of a existing parameter, the
primary name of a existing aliased parameter, or a name/alias of an
existing parameter which is shown with an override label.
The error message was modified to always refer to the conflicting
parameter using the same name that is has in the sidebar.
Example: A parameter named "Parameter B" is already present in the
sidebar under its alias "B". When a user tries to add "Parameter B",
the new error message will inform the user that the parameter they
are trying to add already exists as "B".

We want to assert that value is true-ish, and that it doesn't equal a
default or auto string.
Bug: T290554
Change-Id: I454dda8d0085a8d3898a0d5b1a3ecc6dd7c2c9e4
There are 2 situations:
1. Either the template name is used in a [[…]] link. In this case
we must provide the namespace. MWTemplateModel.getTitle() does
this. However, it's not a mw.Title object and therefor not really
guaranteed to be a valid title. This is fine. The worst thing
that can happen is that the link points to an error message.
But this should be entirely unreachable anyway.
2. Some messages want to display the name of the template.
Ideally without the namespace. That's what
MWTemplateSpecModel.getLabel() is for. Again this is not
guaranteed to be a valid mw.Title. But it doesn't need to. It's
only used as a label.

This is what actually happens:
* We call `addParameter()`.
* This triggers an `add` event.
* This calls an `MWTemplateDialog.onAddParameter` event handler.
* This code doesn't check if a parameter already exists (because
it shouldn't). It detroys the page in the content pane on the
right and recreates it from scratch.
The only reason we do this is to focus the input field on the
right. This patch introduces a dedicated event to do this.
Bug: T288827
Change-Id: I47effe05427cfabfcf534920edee79521eaa033f
This check makes sure the user doesn't loose work when clicking
the back button. I would like to argue that neither of these
values is valuable enough to block the user with a confirmation
dialog:
* Literally nothing is lost when the input is empty.
* The auto-value is only temporarily lost, but will
automatically be restored when the user decides to add the
template back. The input field is pre-filled with this value.
* The default value doesn't need to be manually entered. It will
show up anyway when the parameter is missing.
There is a rare edge-case, but it is not really relevant in this
situation. Some templates allow to override a default value with
the empty string. This will be considered irrelevant by this
code. However, this was already happening before and doesn't
change with this patch.
The only edge-case where this patch makes a difference is if a
parameter is marked as required or suggested, is documented to
have a default value, _and_ the template allows to override it
with an empty string. But this combination is rather crazy, if
not bogus, and not worth considering here, I believe.

This is really only about the methods name, but doesn't change
any behavior.
I realized we work with several different definitions of what
"empty" means. There are at least two significant definitions:
1. When a parameter's value is the empty string or identical
to the default value, the behavior of the template is the same.
It will use the default value just as if the user entered it.
The auto-value is a meaningful value in this scenario and can't
be considered equal to the empty string.
2. The context here is when the user presses the back button.
This will destroy all user input. But an auto-value is not user
input. It will appear again when the user realizes they made a
mistake. Nothing is lost.
Personally, I would not use the word "empty" to describe this
concept. Things like "containsUserProvidedValue",
"isCustomValue", "isMeaningfulValue", … come to mind. These are
all still a big vague. A "user provided" value can be identical
to the default or auto-value. "Custom" how? I went for
"containsValuableData" for now.

Notably:
* Don't require the model in the new sidebar via dependency
injection, but connect the event handlers later. This is
relevant because we currently create the new sidebar in the
wrong spot. Removing the hard dependency allows us to split
the code and utilize initialize() and getSetupProcess()
correctly. This will be done in a following patch.
* The change event now includes the new position. This makes
it very easy to add this missing feature to the new sidebar.
Also:
* Stop triggering change events when nothing changed. These
events are expensive. They bubble all the way up to the
TransclusionModel, and to all linked
onTransclusionModelChange() handlers.
* Update event documentation to make this more visible.

* Make all elements in the new sidebar tabbable.
* Fix MWTransclusionOutlineTemplateWidget.createCheckbox() to

* Rewrite more code in MWTransclusionOutlineTemplateWidget to

* Fix MWTemplateModel.addParameter() to not do way to much
stuff when a parameter already exists.
* Update code documentation.
* Use more specific, less ambiguous variable and method names.

Separation of concerns:
* The template model knows which parameters are currently used,
but doesn't know what's documented.
* The spec knows what's documented, but doesn't know what's
currently used.

For example, checking if a parameter is required works just fine
for unknown parameters. They are never required. Since I16708b0
we don't need to guard the spec related methods any more.

These methods are special in so far that they create *minimal*
wikitext where optional whitespace is not preserved. I tried
to rename the methods to reflect this, but could not find a
caller. What's used instead are the .serialize() methods.

A lot of the checks are redundant. The first check still is
redundant because the later two cover everything as well. But
I left it for performance reasons.
Additionally:
* There was no test for the method.
* This patch also updates a few pieces of documentation in the
same class.

If a known parameter is present using one of it's aliases, then
only the aliased name should be shown to the user. This patch,
therefore, resolves the issue of the same parameter being added
to the sidebar twice.
When adding a parameter that is aliased, it will receive the same
position as the non-aliased parameter it is replacing.

This is just not necessary. It removes a level of indirection
that possibly makes it harder to understand the code. It makes
it easier to possibly get rid of unused methods.

The so called "spec" class keeps track of parameters that have
been used before, no matter if documented via TemplateData or
not. Removed parameters are still "known" (i.e. have been seen
before).
This feature allows to easily find previously used parameters
names when an undocumented parameter was removed and the user
tries to add it again.

While the term "canonical" is not wrong, I find it still
somewhat ambiguous.
1. "Canonical" could mean different things. E.g. is the order
of parameters as they appear in the article's wikitext the
"canonical" one? It's possible to argue like this, esp. if a
template doesn't have TemplateData documentation. In this case
the only order known is the one from the wikitext.
2. "Canonical" sounds like the parameters must be reordered.
But this should never happen. Not having dirty diffs is more
important than having the parameters in a specific order.

This reverts the revert commit d47b95eb4a.
When no `paramOrder` is given, known parameters should appear in the
order returned from the TemplateData API.
Previously, when TemplateData was present but no paramOrder
specified, then the parameters would appear in alphabetical order as
"unknown" parameters. Now they will appear in the order listed in
TemplateData. This is similar to the fully-specified behavior when
paramOrder is present.
This will only affect the Visual Editor template dialog, and has no
effect on serialization.

This makes the code more readable and easier to reason about.
The ESLint rule responsible for this code style was removed
just recently.
Notes:
* I focus on classes that are relevant for what the WMDE team
does right now.
* I merge multiple `var` keywords only when the variables are
strongly connected.
* Caching the length in a for loop makes the code hard to
read, but not really faster when it's a trivial property
access anyway.
