Replace the use of screen-scraping in the test environment
installation with simply invoking MediaWiki's command-line
installer.
The old code being deleted here relied on our own hardcoded POST
parameter names & the precise layout of MediaWiki's GUI installer at a
given version. Somewhere between [1] and now this inevitably broke.
As far as I can tell there was never a reason for this screen-scraping
hack, when [1] was introduced it hardcoded MediaWiki 1.19.0, the CLI
installer was introduced in 1.17.0. Perhaps the authors weren't aware
of it, or this code was written for an older version.
This allows us to simply delete our own template version of
LocalSettings.php, it'll instead be provided by the CLI installer.
While we're at it let's fix a few things, these changes weren't
practical to split up (I'd need to fix code I was about to mostly
delete)
* Use MediaWiki's own defaults where possible, e.g. before we'd name
the database "wikidb.sqlite", now we'll simply use whatever name
MediaWiki prefers (currently my_wiki.sqlite) by only supplying the
directory name the SQLite file will be dropped into, not the full
path.
* Put all of our database & download assets into a new "mediawiki/"
folder. This makes it easier to reason about as the current &
template "backup" database the tests keep swapping around live
next to each other.
This'll also prevent future potential breakage as there isn't a
single SQLite database. MediaWiki also creates a job queue
database and a couple of cache databases. In practice it seems we
got away with not resetting these when we reset the main database,
but it's the sort of thing that could break in the future (reset,
main store doesn't have the article, but the cache does).
* The "delete" function now only deletes the MediaWiki installation
& database, not the downloaded .tar.gz file. This makes us
friendlier to a developer on a slow connection.

In more recent versions of MediaWiki this is a requirement, e.g. the
current stable version of 1.32.2.
The web installer now refuses our old 9 character password, the
command-line one (will be used in a subsequent change) will accept it,
but trying to use it in the web UI will emit an error asking the user
to reset the password. Let's use a password that'll just work and
allow us to log in as the admin user.

Amend a comment in the test.config file to point to the latest
upstream version, which makes it easier for the user to tweak this.

Updates the code to make it more easy to switch mediawiki version when
testing. Before that, the version number was partly hardcoded, partly
in a var.

install_wiki.sh allows the user to install a MediaWiki instance in a
single shell command. Like "git instaweb", it configures and launches
lighttpd without requiring root priviledges. To simplify database
management, it uses SQLite, which doesn't require a running daemon, and
allows reseting the database by simply replacing a single file. This
allows install_wiki to also defines a function wiki_reset which clear all
content of the previously created wiki, which will be very useful to run
several indepenant tests on the same wiki.
Note those functionnalities are made to be used from the user command
line in the directory git/contrib/mw-to-git/t/
