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.

There are two issues with context in this test case:
1. The $vectorTemplate object was not given the $context object.
Calling setContext() is the same as MediaWiki would normally do
after calling SkinFactory, e.g. as in RequestContext::getSkin.
2. The "main" glboal state was leaking into the test by mutating
the result of getMain() instead of creating your own for use
in the test.

The LatestSkinVersionRequirement is problematic for various reasons:
1) It uses the "useskin" query string
parameter which may or may not refer to the correct
skin (in the case of a non-existent skin it will always come to the conclusion that
it is not modern Vector and thus must be legacy).
2) It uses the User object which may or may not be safeToLoad
depending on when called.
The feature seems redundant at this point, as we are separating code
into separate classes Vector and Vector22 and all the features only apply
to modern Vector. I suggest we remove it and use the features explicitly in the skin
intended.

After I628435a4a, we were asserting a boolean was given because we're
extending HTMLFormField which requires a boolean value. This was safe
because GlobalPrefs would provide a boolean, but that changed with
I594f6297.
We could rework GlobalPrefs once again to ensure only a boolean is
passed in, but since HTMLLegacySkinVersionField already has special
handling around the data types, it seems to make sense to contain the
type transformation in this class.
Simply removing the Assertion is enough to prevent T296068, however
depending on when the global preference was saved (such as since MW
1.38.0-wmf.9 but before wmf.10), it's possible either a bool or a string
was saved, hence we check for both to ensure correct display.

Since we have feature flagged the new user menu feature, it is
imperative we load both sets of styles until the feature has
shipped. This allows us to switch seamlessly between the two
without worrying about cached HTML being served with updated CSS.
To do this, we add a new class to both user menu's distinguishing
the legacy version from the modern version. The styles are then
scoped to these new selectors.
This also fixes some regressions with the legacy user menu in
modern Vector when wgVectorConsolidateUserLinks is disabled.
Notes:
* No caching selector is needed for #pt-userpage given it can only
ever be output for logged in users.
* ID selectors in general are bad, so scoping to mw-portlet-personal-user-menu-legacy
isolates the legacy component allowing it to be rendered alongside the modern UserMenu

ext.uls.interface module isn't installed or is not being loaded.

SkinMustache in core provides most of what is required for Vector to
generate its menus. In the interest of having a canonical source of
truth for menus across all skins, Vector should use this data.
To ensure the HTML generated is (mostly) the same after this patch to
prior, a few modifications are necessary:
* The data from core is decorated so that Vector can continue having its
own custom class names on menus. This is done using the
decoratePortletClass method.
* There is no support for a menu having a header representing the
selected menu item, as is currently the case with variants. This is
achieved via an extension to getPortletData. It's assumed that later
when variants are merged with languages, this can be removed.
* Menus are agnostic to how they are displayed, so we must continue to
add the is-dropdown template variable to drop down menus. In future we
may want to rethink our Menu partial to make this unnecessary in PHP.
* The portal-first class is redundant in the modern Vector as we can
use the first-child selector. Previously we introduced a class to
service the legacy skin where this rule doesn't apply as #p-logo is
the first child. However, the legacy skin can do this using a special
next sibling selector instead.

Drop support for vectorMenu, vectorTabs and
vectorMenuCheckbox, body, menu selectors in preference
for standard selectors.
This change will impact a large amount of user scripts/styles but should
not impact any gadgets.
These classes were kept around for user scripts and styles however are not
needed internally. As we transition to a more maintainable skin menu
system, it is time to lose these selectors even though this will cause
disruption.
Vector now will use the mw-portlet class rather than the vector-menu
class in its own CSS styling, however it keeps the other classes to
allow differentiation of the different types of menu.
Changes to test: Previously the tests assumed all portlets were empty
when checking the classes. This is very rare, so its better to check
the classes of non-empty portlets, so several tests are updated
accordingly to drop the emptyPortlet class.

I177dad88 introduced the skin version user preference field and
associated configuration values. Per T242381, the field is to presented
as a checkbox with the implied storage type of a boolean where a string
is needed. A PreferencesFormPreSave hook handler was added to adapt
values of either data type to the other. While this was a neat solution
to a minor nit, the adapter's implementation is incompatible with the
GlobalPreferences extension as the PreferencesFormPreSave hook isn't run
whilst saving global preferences.
Rather than adding an equivalent hook to the GlobalPreferences
extension, create a custom field based on a checkbox with the adapter
included. This allows us to:
- Separate the business logic concerned with preserving the user's
VectorSkinVersion preference if they've simply disabled Vector from
the adapter
- Simplify the adapter's implementation
- Forego adding hooks to the GlobalPreferences codebase

- Replace repeated string literals with equivalent constants in

merged at the same time as this patch.
== The background ==
All extensions have been weaned of BaseTemplate hooks in
Wikimedia projects.
This change now means that Vector will no longer run
any BaseTemplate hooks. See the epic T253809 for the
implementation details.
== The change ==
BaseTemplate will now have nothing to do with the rendering of
Vector. The skin version is added to express the significance of
breaking compatibility with 3rd party extensions.
We TEMPORARILY remove SkinVector to retain git blame. SkinTemplateVector will
be renamed SkinVector in the follow up (see 2/2)
Update skin.json to use SkinTemplateVector for the skin (this will be fixed
in a follow up).
The isLegacy method is moved to SkinTemplateVector.
Changes of note:
* html-debuglog is no longer needed. SkinMustache includes this information on
the skins behalf
* html-printtail and html-headelement are now not needed in the master template
and added by SkinMustache
* Skin::getAfterPortlet does not provide the `after-portlet` wrapping element provided
by BaseTemplate::getAfterPortlet so this is added
* SkinTemplate::getFooterIcons does not support the options that BaseTemplate::getFooterIcons
does so any icons which do not have an image must be manually checked for and unset
Known changes to HTML output as a result of intentionally
delegating their output to the core SkinMustache class:
* A new line is removed between the body element and #mw-page-base
* #mw-html-debug-log now appears at the end of the body element
* #printfooter is now a child of #mw-content-text rather than sibling.

de76ab5 added the config,
`$wgVectorDefaultSkinVersionForExistingAccounts`. Its usage in
`Hooks::onUserGetDefaultOptions()` was invoked not only for existing
accounts but anonymous users _as well._ This is a bug, due to my own
misconceptions about the hook, that went against both the config's name
and its documentation.
Unfortunately, user sessions are unavailable in
`Hooks::onUserGetDefaultOptions()` so it does not seem to be possible to
determine whether the active user is an anonymous or existing account.
This patch drops the hook and centralizes all version determination
logic in SkinVersionLookup::getVersion(). SkinVersionLookup requires a
the active User object and can make the anonymous / existing account
determination by checking login state.

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

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.

Sections can be nested. Using rendering/skin as the parent
means that Vector's skin preference will always come straight
after the skin preference and before Popups.
A change in core is needed to update the selector for the element which
shows/hides the subsection as well as provide a generic message key to
replace the one inside this repository.
Note: If the "Vector" specific heading is needed, we can achieve this
with a little more work but that is a conversation for another time.

Moving all the templateParser calls to one function
so its easier to see how the template is composed.
The diff of changes to the stories folder highlight
the internal changes which are:
* html-portals replaced with html-sidebar in main template
* new Sidebar template added which outputs to html-sidebar
* Mention of "MainMenu" replaced with better understood "Sidebar"
This is precursory work to adopt templatePartials
