Separating most LESS files into 2 ResourceLoader modules and a common
folder:
- skins.vector.styles
- skins.vector.styles.legacy
- common
This changes aims to clearly separate the old (“legacy”), the new
(“modern”) and the common styles which were previously all placed under
`skins.vector.styles/`.
Inside each directory are separate folders for `layouts` and
`components`.
The entry files, `skin.less` and `skin-legacy.less` are moved into the
specific folders and a third, `common.less` entry file is created that
contains the common imports for both old and new Vector.
Aliases have been added to the Storybook Webpack config to avoid adding
the story file changes to this patch. Images coming from CSS `url()`'s
have also been temporarily disabled in Storybook until Storybook can be
upgraded to use Webpack 5, and use array values for aliases, in a
follow-up patch.
This patch also slightly changes a footer layout specific rule so that
existing `padding` remains unchanged in rendering due to new common and
component structure.

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

Updating 'search' icon to latest WVUI/OOUI optimized, reduced path. Also
- amending size of search input and position of icon in input slightly to
align it closer to standard text inputs
- simplify CSS by getting rid of selector which is targeting both, input and
button and applying rules only where needed
- fixing code comments
- increasing icon size to `16px` equivalent `em` to enable user text zooming
preference applied to search icon as well. `16px` is a compromise towards the
old look and feel of the previous icon bringing it closer to standard icon size in
legacy Vector.
This change affects both modern and legacy versions of Vector.

Add a menu button that toggles the panel's (also referred to as a
sidebar) collapse state. When the screen is wide enough, animate the
transition.
The menu icon from OOUI is copied into Vector to avoid two
ResourceLoaders modules (collapseHorizontal icon isn't ready for
inclusion in the OOUI icon pack and ResourceLoaderOOUIIconPackModule
doesn't support images).
Additional polish and collaboration is needed but this patch fulfills
the scope of its referenced task.

Going into the header work, we'll need this variable available so

Move all the LESS `z-index` settings to variables.less so it's easy to
conceptualize how UI will be layered. jQuery CSS rules are untouched but
documented.
Also, remove the seemingly redundant re-setting of the `mw-searchButton`
`z-index`:
#mw-searchButton
z-index: 1;
}
This rule was added in 0c77e4f.
The sidebar work will require `z-index` properties and this refactor
eases the comprehension of those changes, as well as prevents the
accrual of more `z-index` technical debt.

Bug: T243281
Change-Id: I42eb3ec4a18ad9e4f6bcdb451593fec7e6e4992a
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.
