All colors used in Minerva are converted from Less variables
into CSS custom properties. A new file called CSSCustomProperties.less
is created in the skins.minerva.base.styles module to store
these custom properties and an ADR is provided on the rationale for
dropping support for browsers that don't support custom properties.
The new CSS custom properties follow Codex design token conventions
where possible (and noted when not).
Link colors are unique because their styles are defined in core,
so in that case the Less variables values are set to custom properties.
Those values are then fed back into MediaWiki core for core link
styling.
Also adds a temporary night-mode color palette under the
.skin-nightmode-1 class on the <html> element.

Converts all Less variable names from CamelCase to snake-case
per the MediaWiki coding conventions.
Removes the following unused Less variables, mostly
related to icons, since those were converted to Codex:
- @icon-touch-area-sm
- @icon-touch-area-md
- @min-size-icon (replaced with @size-icon-medium)
- @icon-glyph-size-sm
- @icon-size-sm
- @icon-padding-sm
- @icon-glyph-size-md
- @icon-size-md
- @margin-icon-md-labelled

Replacing 'mediawiki.ui/variables.less' @import with
new skin-aware 'mediawiki.skin.variables.less' standard.
Removing calls for 'mediawiki.skin.variables.less' in favor for
'minerva.variables.less' for consistency.
Also
- replacing several static values with new Codex design token featuring
skin variables of `background-color`, `color`, `border-*` and
`transition` categories
- renaming several Less variables to variable naming standard
- moving a small number of MinervaNeue specific variables into
'minderva.variables.less' file. Those should be replaced in mid-future
by Codex design tokens
Please note, that this patch is not replacing all values with
possible Codex tokens. It's just applying them on selected
categories for consistency for now to keep the patch easier reviewable.
Further replacements will be done in follow-up patches.
Bump MediaWiki core required version to >= v1.41.0.

Making Minerva use the `elements` feature is not
practical at the current time. In lieu of that, we
update the link colors to use the core definition.
The red links and external link colors
can come from the "content-links" module.
This also adds support for the underlining user link preference
and better plain link support.

em values are calculated relative to the parent element's font-size, not
the root or browser-default font-size. However, @font-size-minerva-small
and @font-size-minerva-smallest are supposed to be relative to the
assumed 16px browser default font-size. If they are used in an element
that already has a smaller-than-100% font-size, the resulting font-sizes
will compound and can be smaller than accessability minimums. This change
uses rems instead, so -small and -smallest will be the same sizes
everywhere on the page.
If -small or -smallest were used anywhere where parent-relative font
sizing is expected, this patch will change the size of that text. This
is only a problem if the new size is smaller than the old size, as any
sizes smaller than -smallest are an accessability issue. I looked for
any potential problems, but didn't see any.

For now, only define:
- @font-family-sans (unused in MinervaNeue, but for possible future use)
- @border-radius-base
With current implementation before this patch, MinervaNeue is relying on core's default
`@border-radius` which is set to `0` to be close to HTML default.
MinervaNeue is currently not applying correct skin's `border-radius`.

It dates back before MinervaNeue was its own skin in Iff1f7e63e796cc
and was probably an idea to provide a simple one-stop solution for
a typography change of font size.
It isn't very well setup for this and also provides no value as of now,
for code simplicity's sake, let's remove it.
From a design perspective, we would approach this problem differently
nowadays.

In various places we try to override the default mw-ui-icon behaviours
The hacks need to be removed as part of addressing the core problem.
Changes:
* Wherever we use mw-ui-icon-before in PHP - wrap the label with a span
so that label font-size is altered where needed - not the icon
* Where a small icon is needed us isSmall parameter for the Icon component
* Apply font-size to labels of mw-ui-icon-before elements
* The browser tests need a slight update to access the span element inside
a menu item - in the case of the logout button the label is always hidden,
so we need to check the visibility of the parent element (secondary_action)

Split apart the extensive mainmenu.less file into a few component-like
files: MainMenu, MainMenuFooter, MainMenuItem, and NotificationsOverlay.
Two variables, @duration and @easing, were moved to minerva.variables.
The separation is imperfect as some overlap still exists but is far
better than before.
This patch is focused on division without regression. Please limit any
refactor requests.
No user visible changes intended. The only selector that was cognizantly
changed was to duplicate the drawer visibility on main menu and
notifications overlay:
// Old: mainmenu.less
.navigation-drawer,
.transparent-shield {
visibility: visible;
}
// ---
// New: MainMenu.less
#mw-mf-page-left,
.transparent-shield {
visibility: visible;
}
// New: NotifcationsOverlay.less
.navigation-enabled {
.notifications-overlay {
visibility: visible;
}
}
The is unfortunately useless. It is best to reproduce these changes
locally by renaming mainmenu.less to MainMenu.less and extract parts to
MainMenuFooter, MainMenuItem, and NotificationsOverlay LESS files until
the result matches.

We use 0.9em in a variety of places, to shrink font-size from the
default font-size. However given we use 16px as a base font this results
in a font-size of 14.4px. This can also cause problems with icons resulting
in rounding errors when used with multiple icons
This changes the font-size to 14px for those areas and makes future usages
centralized by adding a specific variable.
Also amending `@font-size-browser` variable to be aligned to naming convention
and equal to Vector one.

Add new user menu. The changes required include:
- Break up AuthMenuEntry into reusable components. They're now simple,
independent, static functions in AuthUtil that are easy to reason
about and compose.
There's lots of verbose code because of the builder and director
patterns. That is, most of the code is for building the thing we
actually want to build instead of just building it. It's easy to write
but no fun to read--even simple configurations are extremely verbose
expressions that must be threaded through the system.
These builders are also single purpose and unlikely to be reusable
unlike a URI builder, for example. As objects, they're not especially
composable either.
- Similarly, break up Menu/DefaultBuilder into BuilderUtil and ban
inheritance. Inheritance has not worked well on the frontend of
MobileFrontend. I don't think it's going to work well here. E.g., I
could have made changes to the base class' getPersonalTools() method
such that the client passes a parameter for the advanced config or
maybe I just override it in the subclass. In either case, I think it
makes the whole hierarchy nuanced and harder to reason about for
something that should be simple.
- Add ProfileMenuEntry and LogOutMenuEntry for the user menu.
- Rename insertLogInOutMenuItem() to insertAuthMenuItem() which matches
the entry name, AuthMenuEntry.
- Extension:SandboxLink is needed to display the sandbox link in the
user menu.
- Performance note: the toolbar is now processed in MinervaTemplate,
which corresponds to removing the buildPersonalUrls() override.
- To mimic the design of main menu, the following steps would be
necessary:
1. Create a user/Default and user/Advanced user menu builder and also
a user/IBuilder interface.
2. Create a user/Director.
3. Create a service entry for Minerva.Menu.UserDirector in
ServiceWiring. The Director is actually powerless and doesn't get
to make any decisions--the appropriate builder is passed in from
ServiceWiring which checks the mode.
4. Access the service in SkinMinerva to set a userMenuHTML data member
on the Minerva QuickTemplate.
5. In MinervaTemplate, access the userMenuHTML QuickTemplate member
and do the usual song and dance of inflating a Mustache template.
This patch does everything except add a service, which was agreed to
be unnecessary, so that logic is now in SkinMinerva.
- Wrap the existing echo user notifications button and new user menu
button in a nav element. This seems like a semantic improvement.
- The existing styling and logic for the search bar and search overlay
are pretty messy and delicate. Changes made to that LESS endeavored to
be surgical. There's lots of room for improvement in the toolbar but
it's out of scope.
- Rename logout icon to logOut.

When advanced mobile contributions mode is enabled and
`$wgMinervaOverflowInPageActions` is set, show a secondary overflow menu
on main namespace articles and user namespace pages. The menu content
varies for each namespace. The new submenu is *disabled* by default,
even when AMC is active. This feature should not be deployed until
instrumentation is available.
The secondary menu is rendered in PHP using the existing menu system
with some changes to the template. The checkbox hack is needed for no-
JavaScript keyboard navigation until :focus-within is supported. CSS
additions are documented in the source.
All client side toolbar execution occurs in Toolbar.js. Enhancements are
documented in the source.
Minor changes to the existing download button:
- Move download and edit button initialization to Toolbar.
- Update copy (not visible) from "Download" to "Download PDF".
- When the overflow menu is present, use the "hasText" / label style.
Wikimedia UI icons are copied from OOUI at d00a0ac and seem useful to
expose as HTTP URIs (not data URIs).
The overflow menu does not show for pages provided by the content proxy
since its entries depend on $tpl->data['nav_urls'] being populated.
