/**
 * Interface for objects which can provide a MediaWiki context on request
 *
 * Context objects contain request-dependent objects that manage the core
 * web request/response logic for essentially all requests to MediaWiki.
 * The contained objects include:
 *   a) Key objects that depend (for construction/loading) on the HTTP request
 *   b) Key objects used for response building and PHP session state control
 *   c) Performance metric deltas accumulated from request execution
 *   d) The site configuration object
 * All of the objects are useful for the vast majority of MediaWiki requests.
 * The site configuration object is included on grounds of extreme
 * utility, even though it should not actually depend on the web request.
 *
 * More specifically, the scope of the context includes:
 *   a) Objects that represent the HTTP request/response and PHP session state
 *   b) Object representing the MediaWiki user (as determined by the HTTP request)
 *   c) Primary MediaWiki output builder objects (OutputPage, user skin object)
 *   d) The language object for the user/request
 *   e) The title and wiki page objects requested via URL (if any)
 *   f) Performance metric deltas accumulated from request execution
 *   g) The site configuration object
 *
 * This class is not intended as a service-locator nor a service singleton.
 * Objects that only depend on site configuration do not belong here (aside
 * from Config itself). Objects that represent persistent data stores do not
 * belong here either. Session state changes should only be propagated on
 * shutdown by separate persistence handler objects, for example.
 *
 * Must not be implemented directly by extensions, extend ContextSource instead.
