Rehabilitate DateFormatter
This code is surprisingly little changed since I added the class in
November 2003, and needs some modernisation.
* Remove the "linked" option, unused since 1.21. Similarly, make the
"match-whole" option implied. This allows the regexes to be
simplified. Nothing will be broken, according to CodeSearch.
* Instead of ucfirst(), use the canonical month name from the language.
This will work with e.g. French which does not capitalise month names.
* Stop caching DateFormatter instances in APC. Caching was added
in 2005 when initialisation was being done on every request, but now
it is only needed when parsing a page with {{#formatdate}}, which is
rarely, and the constructor overhead is only 200µs after Language
object data initialisation. Instead, use an in-process cache via a
factory service.
* Add docs and extra tests.
* Remove todo note obsolete since 38 minutes after the original commit.
* Rename many variables.
* Use double-slash comments
* Don't store the Language object, just get arrays.
* Use mb_strtolower() instead of Language::lc() -- any customisation of
Language::lc() would break PCRE case-insensitive matching.
* Use named subpatterns instead of "keys"
* Remove the ISO1/ISO2 distinction, the only difference was linking.
* Use closure variables instead of temporary object members
