Stephen Niedzielski 19edb3d612 [doc] Add link in readme to hooks.txt

I always forget hooks.txt exists but I guess it's a bit of a convention:

- extensions/CirrusSearch/docs/hooks.txt
- extensions/Echo/modules/hooks.txt

Add a link to hooks.txt in the readme to keep the convention but help
surface the documentation.

We strive for compliance with MediaWiki conventions:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Coding_conventions

Additions and deviations from those conventions that are more tailored to this project are noted at:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Coding_conventions

URL query parameters

useskinversion: Like useskin but for overriding the Vector skin version user preference and configuration. E.g., http://localhost:8181?useskin=vector&useskinversion=2.

Skin preferences

Vector defines skin-specific user preferences. These are exposed on Special:Preferences when the VectorShowSkinPreferences configuration is enabled. The user's preference state for skin preferences is used for skin previews and any other operation unless specified otherwise.

Version

Vector defines a "version" preference to enable users who prefer the December 2019 version of Vector to continue to do so without any visible changes. This version is called "Legacy Vector." The related preference defaults are configurable via the configurations prefixed with VectorDefaultSkinVersion. Version preference and configuration may be overridden by the useskinversion URL query parameter.

Hooks

See hooks.txt.
