Replacing one-off uses in various auxiliary features: only used
in function scope (or narrower), nothing else depends on them.
Some of them didn't even need to do any URL parsing or formatting.

mw.Target doesn't know about revid and etag, so move that logic
to ArticleTarget, where the param can still just be a boolean.

When the user is saving their edit, we want to ensure that they
understand how it will be attributed. If the user gets logged out or
logs in in another tab, we want to display a message about it before
saving.
Instead of manually managing tokens and handling the 'badtoken' error
to detect this, use the 'assert'/'assertuser' parameters for the API
to detect it for us. Thanks to this we can rely on automatic retrying
for 'badtoken' errors in mw.Api#postWithToken.
It will be possible to share some of this code with other extensions
that already use ArticleTargetSaver, namely DiscussionTools, now that
it doesn't need to manage tokens for VisualEditor.
