Stephen Niedzielski de76ab59c1 [Special:Preferences] [PHP] Add skin version user preference and configs
Add a Vector-specific user preference to Special:Preferences for
toggling skin version, either Legacy Vector or the latest Vector.

The presentation of the new preference section and the default values
for anonymous, new, and existing accounts are configurable via
$wgVectorShowSkinPreferences, $wgVectorDefaultSkinVersion (to be used by
the feature manager in T244481),
$wgVectorDefaultSkinVersionForExistingAccounts, and
$wgVectorDefaultSkinVersionForNewAccounts. These configurations default
to the fullest experience so that third-party configuration is minimal.
See skin.json for details. The configurations are each tested in
VectorHooksTest.php.

When presentation is enabled, the new preference appears as a checkbox;
enabled is Legacy mode and disable is latest. There are a number of
unfortunate details:

- Showing and hiding a checkbox is supported by OOUI. Showing and hiding
  a whole section (Vector skin preferences, in this case) is not so this
  additional client JavaScript functionality is added in Core (see
  Iaf68b238a8ac7a4fb22b9ef5d6c5a3394ee2e377).
- Stylization as a checkbox is wanted. However, the implied storage type
  for OOUI checkboxes is a boolean. This is not wanted in the event that
  another skin version is added (e.g., '3' or 'alpha'). As a workaround,
  the preference is converted from a boolean to a version string ('1' or
  '2') on save in Hooks::onPreferencesFormPreSave() and from a version
  string to a checkbox enable / disable string ('1' or '0') in
  onGetPreferences(). There a number of test cases to help cover these
  concerning details.

Documentation for overriding the skin version as a URL query parameter
is provided in anticipation of T244481.
