Changes:
- Add the LatestSkinVersionRequirement requirement class, which lazily
evaluates the application state to get the version of the skin for the
request.
This majority of this class is taken from Stephen Niedzielski's
Vector\SkinVersionLookup class, which was introduced in d1072d0fdf.
- Register an instance of LatestSkinVersionRequirement and register the
'LatestSkin' feature that requires that requirement
- Re-introduce SkinVector::isLegacy and make it defer to the Feature
Manager
Bug: T244481
Change-Id: If6b82a514aa5afce73e571abdd8de60b16a62fa8
As described in the readme but not implemented until now, this patch
enables the skin version to be specified as a URL query parameter. This
is useful for testing both skin versions during development and on wiki,
as well as enabling sharing URLs with a specific skin (Vector) and skin
version (1 or 2).
Obtaining the actual skin version requires tying together three input
sources, WebRequest, User, and Config. It seems simple but it'd be easy
to botch. For this reason, a helper class to correctly interrogate them
and tests are provided.

This commit is singularly focused on adding a link to the sidebar for
Vector, logged-in users. It does the bare minimum to fulfill the
requirements of T243281.
Additionally, it will help to answer the question "Do we need to use
abstractions (other than maybe different templates) to separate Legacy
Vector from Vector" by intentionally leaving out any abstractions in
order to make it easier to compare with a follow-up patch
(Ib2ef15180df73360cc1de25b893e49d415d23e1a) which does use abstractions.
It is a good thing to question whether or not we need addtional
abstractions in VectorTemplate and if they will help us as unnecessary
abstractions can have the opposite effect and just lead to further
frustrations down the road.
Therefore, I urge you, the reviewer, to let me know your thoughts! If
abstractions are viewed as not making our lives any easier, the
follow-up patches may be completely discarded and that's totally okay
with me. :) I think it's a good think to talk about now though.
Important changes:
* The VectorTemplate constructor was changed to allow injecting the
config, templateParser, and isLegacy boolean (only the config was
allowed before this commit). According to MediaWiki's Stable Interface
Policy, "Constructor signatures are generally considered unstable unless
explicitly declared stable for calling" [3]. Given that VecorTemplate's
constructor is not marked as stable, it is justified to do this without
warning according to the policy.
* Due to the above, the 'setTemplate' method is no longer needed and was
marked as deprecated.
* VectorTemplateTest was made to adapt to the new VectorTemplate
constructor. Additionally, it now extends from
MediaWikiIntegrationTestCase which my intelliphense server can pick up.
I *think* MediaWikiTestCase is just an alias to
MediaWikiIntegrationTestCase [1] and MediaWikiTestCase file was renamed
to MediaWikiIntegrationTestCase in [2], but I'm willing to change it
back if there is pushback to this.
Open questions:
* What are VectorTemplate's responsibilities? To me, it acts right now
as a controller (because it echos the full HTML string from the
template), a model (because SkinTemplate::prepareQuickTemplate sets data
on it which it later retrieves through `$this->get()`), a presenter
(because it adds data tailored for a web-centric view), and a view
(because it renders HTML strings instead of letting the view/template be
solely responsible for that). Arguably, some business logic might be
mixed in there as well (because it checks to see if a User is logged
in/has necessary permissions to show x which my changes here add to).
This might not be a problem if we keep VectorTemplate relatively small,
but will it remain this way as we progress further in Desktop
Improvements?
* How do we write tests for VectorTemplate without exposing unnecessary
public methods? For example, if I want to test the `getSkinData()`
method to see what state will be sent to the template, how should I do
this? One option might be to use `TestingAccessWrapper` to expose these
private methods which is what
`VectorTemplateTest::testbuildViewsProps()` does. Another option is to
accept this method as public. Is there a better way? Keep in mind that
even with access to this method, there might be many things to mock.

Various skins may extend SkinVector (although none are in production)
(https://github.com/search?q=%22extends+SkinVector%22&type=Code)
This makes it clear we no longer support that behaviour.
Because of the skins that are extending SkinVector currently we have
not resorted to using the final keyword at this time.

To have a clean break for upcoming changes we will duplicate
index.less into legacy.less and create a new module to clearly
separate new styles from old.
The preferred name however does come with some caching challenges.
Cached HTML served to anons will continue to load the style module
`skins.vector.styles` for a period of 1-4 weeks
Provided we are careful with our changes during this period this
should be okay.

Thanks to the dependent change, the print logo is now provided
in core so we can remove the custom Vector ResourceLoader module
ResourceLoaderLessModule is replaced with a ResourceLoaderSkinModule
and gains the features capability replacing the need for
'mediawiki.skinning.interface' making use of the changes added in
6845912bcf1.
Note that for cached HTML both 'mediawiki.skinning.interface'
and skins.vector.styles will be loaded. We can avoid this
by renaming skins.vector.styles if necessary (but I'm not
sure if we'd want to do that)

The SkinVector implements IContextSource, thus it has to provide
the getConfig() method. Vector skin is currently using
it's own `vectorConfig` in one place and it passes the VectorConfig
to the VectorTemplate class. Sadly the VectorConfig is the same
thing what $this->getConfig() provides. There is no need to make
this code more complex by handling two different config containers
which at the end are the same GlobalVarConfig instances.
If we decide to handle VectorConfigs differently, let's thing it
through, for now we should simplify code and remove all uncessary
logic. Thanks to that, there is also no need to override the
setupTemplate().

Tthe SkinVector::steupSkinUserCss is deprecated and
we should use the ::getDefaultModules instead.

Looks like the SkinVector::getPageClasses is doing nothing, only
calling the Skin::getPageClasses and returning the output.

With this change the constructor of the parent class gets called like if
there is no local constructor. This allows the ancestor classes to
initialize themself in their constructor.
