trait MediaWiki::Page\LegacyArticleIdAccess

Initial value:

{
    
    protected function getArticleId( PageIdentity $title ): int {
        if ( $title instanceof Title ) {
            return $title->getArticleID();
        }
        return $title->getId( $this->getWikiId() );
    }
 
    
    abstract protected function getWikiId()

Convenience trait for conversion to PageIdentity.

For the cross-wiki aware code, this should be used instead of PageIdentity::getId until Title is dropped. Before transition to PageIdentity, Title could exist for foreign wikis with no indication about it (Title does not have $wikiId). It was very brittle, but it worked. Until Title is deprecated in the codebase, most of the PageIdentity instances passed around are Titles. So for cross-wiki access, stricter domain validation of PageIdentity::getId will break wikis.

Additionally, loose checks on Title regarding whether the page can exist or not have been depended upon in a number of places in the codebase.

This trait is only supposed to be used in cross-wiki aware code, and only exists until code up the stack is guaranteed not to pass Title.
