Since Wikibase change I01afb269d6 (commit ee4c555878), Wikibase has a
copy of the “is wikidatawiki” condition to temporarily continue
supporting the old search on Vector 2022. As suggested by Michael there,
we can change the condition here to avoid having the same check in two
places, and instead detect whether Wikibase loaded the legacy search
ResourceLoader module (which means we shouldn’t install the new search)
or not (in which case Wikibase Repo is either not installed at all, or
it’s providing a custom wgVectorSearchClient to support the new search).
With this change in place, once Wikibase is ready to support the new
search everywhere (including on Wikidata proper), we only need to change
the condition in one place (in Wikibase), and can then clean up the code
here at any later time.

This allows the URL to the other wiki's rest.php to be configured
exactly, rather than assuming that it has the same wgScriptPath as the
current wiki. This is necessary to make this feature work on PatchDemo,
where wgScriptPath looks like '/123abc456/w'.
$wgVectorSearchHost is removed, since nothing uses it except PatchDemo
(where it's broken) and development setups.

Given our use of constants for tracking classes this eslint rule
is more an annoyance than helpful.

Given Wikidata is the only project using modern Vector,
and the only project where the search API is not applicable,
this will result in a loss of autocomplete on Wikidata.org
which will fall back to the non-JS mode.

Styling should not depend on IDs to allow us to have multiple
searches in the page.
Precursor for wiring up search in the sticky header.
This also tweaks performance metrics to track separate metrics
for the sticky header search

Eslint is throwing compat warnings on every commit in Vector. This
commit silences those warnings.

If the VectorSearchTreatmentABTest config variable is truthy and the
user is loged in, then pick the Core treatment (defined in the
mediawiki.searchSuggest RL module) or Vector's Vue.js-based treatment of
the search widget based on their user ID. If not, then fall back to
picking the treatment based on VectorUseWvuiSearch.
Supporting changes:
* Update initSearchLoader() in skins.vector.js/searchLoader.js to check
whether the body.skin-vector-search-vue exists
* Remove wgVectorUseWvuiSearch from the skins.vector.js RL module's config
* Update the performance-related metrics collection to check which
module is being loaded rather that use the above

This allows better compatibility with FeatureManager (e.g. can use
requirements such as REQUIREMENT_LATEST_SKIN_VERSION). It will become
especially useful in I70277c1082a504fbd5f6023e9873e8071de7e35d and when
A/B testing search.

By default the API uses location.host as the host, however during
development it is useful to test against production wikis
For example to test against English Wikipedia:
$wgVectorSearchHost = 'en.wikipedia.org';
Note: Links when clicked will not take the user to the target page, and
instead will take the user to the search results page with a link to
create the page.
The following config can be used to workaround that page:
$wgDisableTextSearch = true;
$wgSearchForwardUrl = "/w/index.php?title=$1";

Creates a new skins.vector.search module that
replaces the searchSuggest module from MediaWiki core.
This module creates a new Vue app using the WVUI
search widget for the new search experience.
The legacy search input form is still retains on pageload,
and the new search kicks on search input focus.
In order to manage that transition, the legacy search
input is styled to resemble the new WVUI input, and the
new input is manually focused after the component mounts.
Vue is also added as a dev-dependency to help with
type-checking.
Other changes:
* the entry in skin.json is reordered alphabetically after
skins.vector.js

As part of comparing Vue search with legacy search, we need to track how
long it takes to lazy load the wvui library. A similar metric was added
to measuring the mediawiki.searchSuggest module in
I0fa6b8904bd43c87a68e9161f00d686a0e588966.
This commit adds the following metrics which will only be used in our
synthetic tests. We are not doing RUM tests at this time.
To test locally, add the following to your LocalSettings.php and append
the query param `useskinversion=2` e.g.
(http://localhost:8181/wiki/Test?useskinversion=2):
```
$wgVectorUseCoreSearch = false;
```
Marks:
* mwVectorVueSearchLoadStart: Marks the start of loading the search
module.
* mwVectorVueSearchLoadEnd: Marks the end of loading the search
module.
Measures:
* mwVectorVueSearchLoadStartToLoadEnd: Measures the time it takes to
load the search module.

Provides a loading indicator to show while the new Vue.js based
search widget loads. Given that the new widget will pull down the
entire Vue.js runtime, it's likely that there will be a delay
before the search suggestions appear. This loader is meant to
improve the perceived loading experience of the new widget.
Adds:
- New searchLoader.js file containing loading behaviour.
- This overrides the code searchSuggest loading behaviour.
- New SearchBoxLoader.less file containing the loader styles.
- i18n message: 'vector-search-loader'.
- The Event type to jsdoc.json
