#49 | MediaWiki 1.43: Deprecated usage of SkinModule

[AlPha5130]

This page is using the deprecated ResourceLoader module "skins.lakeus.styles".
[1.43] The use of the i18n-all-lists-margins feature with SkinModule is deprecated as it is now provided by elements. Please remove and add elements, drop support for RTL languages, or incorporate the styles provided by this module into your skin.
[1.43] The use of the interface-message-box feature with SkinModule is deprecated in favor of CodexModule. Please remove this feature.
More information can be found at [[mw:Manual:ResourceLoaderSkinModule]].

Other problems after 1.43: the --color-base and the like CSS variables seems to be conflict with certain OOUI styles.

Regarding Interface message box: this needs further cleanup in the main LESS file.

Updated the branching strategy to handle the situation in [[mw:Manual:ResourceLoaderSkinModule]]:

• #37 | Compatibility and branching strategy #37

Regarding Interface message box: this needs further cleanup in the main LESS file.

MediaWiki core Skin.php:

// Since 1.41, styling for mw-message-box is only required for
// messages that appear in article content.
// This should only be removed when a suitable alternative exists
// e.g. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T363607 is resolved.

Done in:

• #52 | Drop support for MediaWiki 1.39.x, 1.41.x, 1.42.x #52

Other mentioned issues split to:

• #53 | CSS variables seems to be conflict with certain CSS variables #53
• #54 | Clean up interface message box styles in the main LESS file #54
