Name: "pate" is an abbreviation of "PAnggilan TEmplat" = "template
      call", idea born 2018-Dec at ID wikipedia, alternatively
      "Proxy for Analysis of TEmplate output"

This module can accept parameters whether sent to itself (own frame) or
to the caller (caller's frame). If there is a parameter "caller=true"
on the own frame then that own frame is discarded in favor of the
caller's one.

Incoming: * one anonymous and obligatory parameter:
            * can be one of 4 types:
              * bare name of the target template (no walls)
              * complete call of the target template protected by
                rectangular brackets (at least one wall required)
              * more than call, wikitext containing calls to multiple
                templates, or one template + something more, only
                for "nsm=2", always requires rectangular brackets, inside
                them requires "enhanced" curly brackets "{({" ... "})}"
                (except for a degenerated case with ZERO template calls)
              * special value
                * special value ":top" begins the HTML table (incl title row)
                * special value ":end" ends the HTML table
            * notes:
              * for target name the default "Template:" or "Templat:" prefix
                can be omitted, other namespace prefix is possible, extra
                colon for namespace ZERO is NOT permitted, use "zer=1" instead
              * complete call must be enclosed in double rectangular brackets
                "[["..."]]" instead of traditional double curly brackets
                "{{"..."}}" used for direct calls, inner wikilinks
                with rectangular brackets permitted
              * if no wall is present then double rectangular
                brackets are prohibited, a violation like
                {{#invoke:pate|ek|[[mall-test]]|sel=111-111}} gives #E04
              * length 1...10'000 octet:s
          * 15 named and optional parameters:
            * notes:
              * some are relevant for special work ":top" too, namely
                "sel=" "tit=" "war=" "bor="
              * none are relevant for ":end"
            * "tab=" HTML table type, prohibited for special work, one
              digit, can be "0"..."5", default is "2":
              * "0" raw style, do NOT add any table elements (gives #E40
                if parameter "sel=" requests more than 1 table cell)
              * "1" brew one or several table cells with "<td>" and "</td>"
                but no "<tr>" and "</tr>" (this is rarely useful)
              * "2" brew one or several table cells with "<td>" and "</td>"
                together inside a table row delimited by "<tr>" and "</tr>"
              * "3" generate a complete horizontal table with 1+1 rows (one
                row for titles, one row for one target) and 1...6 columns

                (no titles, one target) and 1...6 columns

                (one column for titles, one column for one target) and
                1...6 rows (this is useful for "big" target templates)

### Usage (user manual)

Features:
* calls a target (usually template) and separates cat insertions
  from remaining wikitext, thus performs category suppression, on one
  place for all templates in a wiki
* drastically simplifies tasks like template and module documentation and
  self-testing, template debugging, listing of multiple template results
  (like userboxes) in a table, provides easy linking to templates
  with parameters
* completely replaces all other legacy category suppression tricks (except
  title page rule) thus greatly simplifies template design and reduces
  risk of miscategorizations
* allows to show the generated category insertions including sorting hints
* can handle hidden parameters (special parameters that can pretend to the      !!!FIXME!!! remove "hid="
  target facts that it detects and depends on, like pagename, namespace,
  protection level, preview-vs-submit, existence of a file or page,
  date, ...)
* preserves the sortorder and formatting of parameters
* works with misplaced templates ie templates in other namespaces
  such as "User:" (still namespaces 14 "Category:" as well as 6 and -2
  "File:" and "Media:" are prohibited), works even for target in ns
  ZERO (needs "zer=1")
* can usually work even with legacy templates internally still relying
  on legacy category suppression tricks
* can handle nested template calls (needs "nsm=1")
* can "fire" and analyze wikitext consisting of more than just one
  template call (needs "nsm=2")
* can handle template calls containing some aggressive tags in
  parameters (needs "tag=1")
* accepts most of same and less sane content that templates can generate,
  can handle "<pre>" and HTML comments there
* can handle references generated by the target in a decent and useful
  manner, see below "Notes on references"
* detects and reports various errors in output from templates, severe
  errors result in early rejection ie no separation, but still at least
  partial report

Limitations and caveats:
* uncommon syntax of the template call with double rectangular brackets
  (note: this is due to some rules or priciples in the MediaWiki parser
  that are old and inherent, thus this will NOT get "fixed" to "standard"
  double curly brackets, see below "Notes on protection")
* nested template calls will NOT work out of the box since the innermost
  template is expanded at the earliest, but there is a solution, see below
  "Notes on protection"
* references passed as template parameters don't work out of the box, but
  there is a solution, see below "Notes on protection"
* uncommon syntax of nested inner template calls using {({ })} (same here,
  this will NOT get "fixed" to "standard" double curly brackets)
* intermediate type template parameters ie holes in anonymous parameter
  chain are not supported (for example "{{mytemplate|junk|4=green}}" is bad)    !!!FIXME!!! is this true at all ??
* there is NO LIMIT for number of forwarded parameters ("pate" does NOT
  bother with them one at a time), but there is a size limit max 10'000
  octet:s resulting in a theoretical limit a bit below 5'000 anonymous
  parameters, also there IS a limit of MAX 8 HIDDEN parameters, note that
  chess needs only slightly more than 64 parameters for a standard chessboard
* equal sign "=" and wall "|" are prohibited (must be html-dec-encoded) in
  title strings (parameter "tit=") and remark (parameter "rem=") (limitation
  comes from the wiki parser), and several titles have to be separated by
  "@@" and must NOT be empty
* due to MediaWiki parser again, testing broken call syntax like {{doit|}}
  is a problem, written as [[doit|]] it gets victim of the "pipe trick",
  but there is a solution, see below "Notes on protection"
* uncommon syntax of the hidden forwarded parameters (parameter "hid=")
  that have to be separated by "@@" instead of "|" or "=" and any single
  parameter must NOT be empty (limitation comes from the wiki parser)
* may cause problems with some legacy templates (try the "ncf=1"
  ie "nocat=false" trick)
* fires one expensive request and thus must be used less than 500 times         !!!FIXME!!!
  on one page
* some aggressive tags rarely used in templates result in strip markers
  showed and detected here (but no strip markers arise if the content
  comes from a module), they make debug output less informative but parsed
  output still looks OK, see also "Notes on protection" and "Notes on
  references" below
* <syntaxhighlight lang="text"> does not work (rejected as error)               !!!FIXME!!!
* "<nowiki>" does NOT work (rejected as error), note that "<nowiki>" does       !!!FIXME!!!
  NOT work at all in output from a module thus modules must NOT emit such
  content even if "pate" is not involved, still "<nowiki>" could be useful
  in output from an old-style template, for now <nowiki> is prohibited,
  <pre> works strangely when coming from a module but we fix it
* augmented <pre> such as <pre style="overflow:auto;"> does not work, other
  augmented tags don't work either (still augmented <ref> works mostly)
* upperCASE and malformed tags such as "<NOWIKI>" or "<nowiki  >" don't work    !!!FIXME!!!

Notes on protection:
* some char:s, most notably equal sign "=" and wall "|", are problematic
  in template calls, while particularly equal sign is common in url:s
* the traditional workarounds are parser functions {{=}} and {{!}}
  (note the exclam instead of wall in the latter) and html-dec-encoding
  "&#61;" and "&#124;"
* the MediaWiki parser has an inherent and old principle "expand and
  process from inside outwards"
* this means that for example with
    {{umbox|text=NO WE{{br}}CAN'T}}
  the outer template "umbox" will NOT find "{{br}}" in the incoming parameter,
  instead it gets the result of expansion such as "<br>", "(Breton)"
  or similar
* similar applies to some aggressive tags, for example with
    {{umbox|text=There is a God|ref=<ref>The Bible</ref>}}
  the template will NOT find "<ref>" in the incoming parameter, instead it
  gets a useless strip marker, and the relevant text "The Bible" is gone too
* this principle is bad for "pate" and and thus we must workaround it,
  otherwise the concept of "pate" will NOT work at all
* the main workaround is to place the forwarded template call into double
  rectangular brackets: [[umbox|text=NO WE CAN'T]] for
  {{umbox|text=NO WE CAN'T}}, this "protects" walls and equal signs
  used to delimit template parameters, but not such in the content
  of those parameters, from premature expansion
* in some cases a further layer of protection must be added:
  * for nested templates such as {{umbox|text=NO WE{{br}}CAN'T}} we must
    prevent premature expansion of {{br}}, the way to do it is to write
    [[umbox|text=NO WE{({br})}CAN'T]], and let "pate" replace {({...})}
    by ordinary {{...}} after it has been smuggled in behind the back of
    the parser, the "nsm=1" or "nsm=2" parameter activates this
  * when forwarding broken call syntax like {{doit|}} written as [[doit|]]
    it gets victim of the "pipe trick" highly undesirable in the context,
    again, "nsm=2" helps (not "nsm=1" here), write [[{({doit|})}]]
  * for some aggressive tags in parameters (pre, nowiki, ref, gallery), we
    have to do a similar thing, write for example <renef>...</renef> and let
    "pate" fix it back to <ref>...</ref>, this is activated by "tag=1"
  * with "pate" in forwarded parameters inside [[ ]] parser functions {{=}}
    and {{!}} DO NOT WORK as possibly desired, they give same bad result as
    raw "=" and "|", valid solutions are either "&#61;" and "&#124;", or
    modified {({=})} and {({|})} together with "nsm=1" or "nsm=2"
* with "pate" in "rem=" both parser functions {{=}} and {{!}} and
  html-dec-encoding do work as desired

Notes on category suppression:
* All active cat insertions are carefully cut out from the output coming from
  the target, whereas links to categories such as "[[:Category:Chemistry]]"
  and commented-out cat insertions are kept. This works even for malformed
  cat insertions with wrong letter case or redundant spaces, untranslated
  prefix "Category:" on non-English wikis, and cat insertions with
  sorting hints.
* The target template should NOT use any other type of category
  suppression like the infamous "CategoryHandler", namespace detection,
  "nocat=" parameter, or similar tricks. Reasonably behaving legacy
  templates have a good chance to work with "pate", though (try the
  "ncf=1" ie "nocat=false" trick).
* Do NOT submit "nocat=" or similar into this template, neither directly, nor
  indirectly ie as the [[-]]-protected parameter or via "hid=" intended for
  target template. Doing so in any of those 3 manners (as long as the name
  is "nocat") is an error. If the "ncf=1" ie "nocat=false" trick is used
  then "nocat=false" will be sent to the target template.
* The target template still may avoid categorizing when finding itself
  on the title page, but even here there is a better way: send the
  transclusion through "pate" with "nsm=2", or through other module
  "Suppress Categories" limited to the core task category suppression.

Notes on tracking categories:
* A tracking category is there to collect pages suffering from a certain
  type of problem, or even technical feature.
* Tracking categories are (non-technically) separated from content
  categories of a wiki, and may be hidden, or not created ie kept red.
* Insertion into a tracking cat is done either by MediaWiki, or by
  templates and modules.
* Usually a tracking cat is populated by pages (articles, lemmas, even
  appendixes) using a temlate in a wrong way. "pate" perfectly supports
  this use, and allows to check that the tracking categorization works
  as supposed. Then templates and modules do NOT have to bother at all
  with "nocat" nor "pate".
* Rarely there is a need for a tracking cat collecting high level templates
  using a low level template in a wrong way. This is more difficult to
  accomplish, since we do NOT want that pages using the broken high level
  template "get caught" too. "pate" has a solution for this in the form
  of "hlt=1" that sends "trackingcategorieshiglow=true" to the target
  and activates bypassing. Then the low level template must help "pate"
  in following way:
  * evaluate the parameter "trackingcategorieshiglow=true"
  * if this is NOT true, do NOT emit the tracking cat insertions
  * if this applies, then do emit the tracking cat insertions, but
    embed EVERY SINGLE such (of not many anyway) in:
    * <span title="bypass-pate">
    * </span>
    for example like this:
    * <span title="bypass-pate">[[Kategori:Tracking-ubx-text-too-long]]</span>
  If "hlt=1" is used then "pate" will find those markers and bypass the
  strict cat suppression, if favor of BOTH displaying the tracking cat,
  AND letting the page get caught into it, exactly as intended. This method
  is not as trivial and straightforward as one might dream of, but it is
  still the probably easiest approach, and definitely better than the legacy
  way ie "CategoryHandler" (ns detection + caller detection + whitelists +
  blackists + greylists + ...) + "nocat" + overuse of <includeonly> +
  other obscure tricks.

Notes on namespaces:
* the "Template:" namespace is the preferred one for templates
* per MediaWiki it is possible to transclude pages in other namespaces
  including ns ZERO
* MediaWiki adds automatically the ns prefix "Template:" if no other
  prefix is present, for ns ZERO the title must be prefixed with an
  extra colon ":"
* "pate" supports other namespaces including ns ZERO, the extra colon
  must NOT be fed into "pate" since it is added automatically if needed
* some namespaces are prohibited by "pate", most notably "Category:" and
  "File:", they cannot be used in the anonymous and obligatory parameter,
  a violation gives #E05

Notes on references:
* templates can theoretically generate references, this is a troublesome
  habit, but there are templates around that indeed do so
* for reasons hardcoded into MediaWiki, "pate" cannot detect or capture
  accumulated references, but it can let MediaWiki dump them below the
  parsed result if manually instructed to do so
* there can be several groups of references
* failure to request MediaWiki harvest the default group results in it
  being dumped at the bottom of the screen in an uncontrolled manner
* failure to request MediaWiki harvest any additional group results in
  a red error message displayed at the bottom of the screen
* the parameter "ref=" of "pate" can be used if the template generates
  references, failure to use it results in a messy output, if it is used
  then there must NOT be any accumulated references from before, parameter
  "reg=" is for an additional group
* for reasons hardcoded into MediaWiki, passing the syntax <ref>...</ref>
  in a template parameter is a problem and causes a mess (strip markers),
  this can affect the target template or a possible inner nested template,
  the only solution is "tag=1" hiding the tag from the MediaWiki parser, see
  above "Notes on protection"

### Mapping of wikitext

The mapping is performed by "lfhparsemap" and is a crucial step towards
a reliable parsing. See separate document "Mapping of wikitext" for a deeper
explanation. The map essentially reveals for every position in a piece of
wikitext what type of content is located there: plain wikitext, inside
wikilink of specified depth, inside template call (not used here), inside
HTML comment, inside "nowiki", etc.

Some of such content areas are nestable:
* wikilink [[ ]]
* template call {{ }}
* seizure of template parameter {{{ }}}

Whereas others are not:
* external HTTP link [http ... ]
* nowiki
* pre
* HTML comment "<!--" ... "-->"
* ...

For the mapping the following area types are defined:
* #A00 0 ordinary plain wikitext no link
* 1...9 wikilink of given depth
* #A14 14 strip marker listed pre nowiki ref references  !!!FIXME!!! not yet
* #A15 15 strip marker other
* #A17 17 "<syntaxhighlight"
* #A22 22 pre
* #A23 23 nowiki
* #A24 24 ref
* #A27 27 HTML comment "<!--" ... "-->"
* #AFF 255 invalid

Here we fully ignore:
* template call {{ ... }}
* seizure of template parameter {{{ ... }}}
* external HTTP link [http ... ]

Nested wikilinks are inherently dubious, but MediaWiki does not discourage
them sufficiently vigorously. They appear particularly in image syntax
with depth 2, and that's the limit we tolerate for ordinary links, still
a cat insertion on a level different from ONE is unacceptable. Since we
ignore template calls and template parameters, we could happen to miscount
the levels of [[ ]], but a template generating such stuff is an error anyway.

MediaWiki will handle many types of areas and nesting in a particular
way. For example comments can get stripped off during some types of
transclusion (most notably the "frame" service "preprocess"), but kept
in other contexts (most notable dumping the content of a template
onto a wiki page by means of "subst:"). This happens irrespective
whether located inside links and cat insertions
[[Category:Chemis<!--don't-->try]] or elsewhere.

"lfhparsemap" returns a nested table containing 3 subtables:
* [0] findings ie status fields #M?? (see list below)
* [1] main map of area types
* [2] boundary map with tristate flags

We map in two different contexts:
* the incoming target parameter (also being wikitext) is
  mapped to "tabinparmap" in order to:
  * detect and reject strip markets giving #E46
  * reliably detect "nocat=" and "trackingcategorieshiglow=" prohibited there   !!!FIXME!!! not yet
  * reliably detect unbalanced [[ ... ]]                                        !!!FIXME!!! not yet
  * reliably detect "((HID=DEN))" and split one wikitext into two wikitexts:    !!!FIXME!!! not yet
    * one with "((HID=DEN))" replaced by "=" intented to be fed into
      expansion ie "arxframent:preprocess"
    * one with parameters using "((HID=DEN))" removed intended to be
      showed in the table
* the output from expansion (also being wikitext) is
  mapped to "tabutparmap" in order to:
  * perform category suppression
  * brew the debug map if requested

The full nested table of output is handled by:
* lfhparsemap -- brew
* lfhtablewithmap -- read only
* lfysplitkat -- read only

Only the subtable [0] of output is used by:
* lfhreportfindings -- read only

Note that on error the main map and the boundary map can be incomplete
ie contain type "nil" in some positions (particularly relevant for the
main map, whereas the boundary map is mostly full of "nil" anyway).

### Error handling and statuses

* this module CANNOT produce insertions to a tracking category
* missing target template, or existing template returning empty or garbage
  is NOT fatal, partial results (in a table if requested) will be showed
* red error-like text coming from the target template is possible
  and considered as ordinary output

Error codes in "numerr" (order: tab= sel= tit= war= bor= mod= zer=              !!!FIXME!!! move up error codes (#E00...#E12 reserved)

* #X70 success
* #X80 target (template or page) does NOT exist
* #X81 no string ie expand failure
* #X82 empty string from expansion by "arxframent:preprocess", note that
       a size of ONE is perfectly valid, no chance for a cat insertion,
       but consider for example the old template {{=}}

Status fields from parse&map done in sub "lfhparsemap" stored
in "tabutparmap" subtable [0]:
* [0]  #M00 mapping attempted

* [22] #M22 treacherous space attached to inner side of double rectangular
            brackets "[[ " and " ]]", different from #S02

Do NOT use extraneous spaces in cat insertions:

### Alignment, centering, newline-sensitivity, overlong lines

The alignment is fixed for the sake of simplicity.

The whole big table is positioned left on the screen,
outside left, CSS "margin:0.6em;" (this is top).

Text is centered in all cells of the title row
"call", "parsed", "rem", "cat", "back", "debug".

Text is theoretically centered in all content cells, but this
is later workarounded in some cells:
* in "call" an inner table outside left inside left "lfipretable"
* in "parsed" an inner <div> (NOT table) outside left inside
  left hog full width "lfilefqdivqlefqtxt"
* in "cat" an inner table only if more than 2 cat:s "lficenqtabqlefqtxt"
  via "lfhtabletohtmllista" outside center inside left, other
  text above centered
* in "debug" upper text centered, findings via "lfhtabletohtmllista"
  outside center inside left, finally lower text either "hard nowiki"
  outside center inside left, or map with table outside center
  inside many small cells

In "call" we need left alignment because this is how code is always showed.

In "parsed" we need left alignment for both text and block elements because
that is the default behaviour of wiki that we mimic there. Further we need
a newline before the generated content to make sure that "#" ":" "*" and
wikitables do work as supposed, again we mimic default behaviour. This
newline does NOT consume any vertical space due to the "single LF in HTML
is ignored" rule.

In "rem" we do NOT add any newline thus no begin-of-line-specific
rules apply.

In "cat" there is NO risk of overlong lines due to underscores "_" since
we standardize the titles by means of "lfwsplit3title" which includes
replacing of underscores by spaces.

In "debug" we can get overlong lines due to underscores "_" but this doesn't
matter since overlong lines appear there anyway an we force-break them.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

### Misc technical stuff

We do NOT use any "pairs" in this module.

Parameter "sel=" (6 + 1 digits):
* for "tab=0" the default is "010-000" (show only parsed result)
* for "tab<>0" the default is "111-110" (show all except debug)
* value "000-000" (do not show anything at all) is prohibited
* relevant also for ":top", but then the extra features activable
  by values 2 or 3 do NOT apply, thus all values are binary
* number bigger than "1" in the control string "sel=" is used (design
  decision) to hold a value instead of another named parameter if:
  * there is a low number of possible discrete values
  * the issue is specific to a column of the table
  * the issue is about display only, not about operation
* following display details are "built-in" into "sel=":
  * column "call" : small text size (boolean -> tristate)
  * column "cat" : omit sorting hints (boolean -> tristate)
  * column "debug" : type of display (black text, coloured
    text, map) (tristate -> fourstate)
* there is a conflict of interest about the column "back", it is
  useful when exposing many calls to different templates, but undesirable
  (alternatively use some "rowspan" ...) for many calls to same template
  with varying parameters

Strip markers:
* tags and parser functions vulnerable to strip markers:
  * <pre> and <nowiki> #A14 #M04
  * <ref> and <references> #A14 #M04
  * both <categorytree> and {{#categorytree}} #A15 #M05
  * <templatestyles> #A15 #M05
  * <gallery> #A15 #M05
  * <math> #A15 #M05
  * "<syntaxhighlight" ...
* unproblematic tags:
  * <b> <i> <s>
  * <sub> <sup>
  * <br>
* parameter "tag=1" activates workaround for some of the vulnerable ones:
  * <pre> <--> <pnere>
  * <nowiki> <--> <nonewiki> observed in template parameters
  * <ref> <--> <renef> observed in template parameters (works
    even for "<ref group=" and "<ref name=")
  * <gallery> <--> <gallenery> observed in template parameters where
    a single image is expected (probably not sane)

Storage of parameter chains:
* Raw string such as "nope|center=YES" used in incoming anonymous
  parameter together with the name of the target, with rectangular
  brackets and adjacent whitespace later removed, equal sign is
  protected inside [[ ]] thus "{{=}}" is NOT needed.
* Simplified string "hiddendate@@1999-12-31@@hiddentime@@23:59" only
  named parameters supported (but try "1="), used in "hid=", converted
  in "lfipairxatxalt" into ordinary raw string form for expansion
  beginning with a wall.
* We do NOT use a table with parameters for a call.
* Still we must look for "trackingcategorieshiglow=" or "nocat=" and
  whine if found.
* We apply "partial preservation of trimmed whitespace" unless in the
  more/multi mode by "nsm=2". Then [[ ]] serve as replacement of {{ }}
  and we preserve ONE SPACE or ONE LF separately on every side, but NOT
  more. This is needed to preserve the arrangement of the call (see below).

For "nsm=2" ie "boo3nsm2m" following changes apply:
* column "call": the call is never linked
* column "back": backlinks are not showed, if the column is enabled
  then it will contain the standard placeholder instead
* operation:
  * [[ ]] must always be used, and do NOT serve as replacement
    of {{ }}, extra {({ })} must be used inside
  * partial preservation of trimmed whitespace does NOT apply
  * check for the existence of target is skipped, "#X80" cannot occur
  * many sanity checks skipped
  * "zer=1" does NOT work, bad old extra colon ":" must be used
  * "hid=" does NOT work
  * "hlt=1" and "ncf=1" do NOT work

Handling of ns prefixes:
* the {{-}}-syntax (indirectly used here) defaults to ns 10
  ie "Template:", other prefix still possible
* parser function "arxframent:expandTemplate" (not used
  here) defaults to ns 10 too
* unless "zer=1" we have to always add the prefix for the purpose
  of linking by means of [[-]]-syntax and backlink evaluation by
  means of "Special:WhatLinksHere"
* if "zer=1" then we must add an extra colon for the {{-}}-syntax for
  both expansion and display

The "<pre>" tag is insanely useful in plain wikitext, but behaves
inconsistently when coming from a template or module. We want it
to work for via "pate" in the rare cases when it's needed, and must
then care about it by html-dec-encoding.

Both <ref> and <references/> do NOT work in output from a module. We need
the latter only and must workaround it by "frame:extensionTag".

Link to the target template is showed without a possible default "Template:"
prefix, other prefixes are visible, even if template not found. Internal
structure of the link:
* a) "[[" (not visible, do NOT encode)
* b) name of the template always with prefix (not visible, link target)
* c) wall "|" (not visible, do NOT encode)
* d) "{{" (visible) (works without encoding)
* e) name of the template without default prefix + parameter chain (visible)
* f) "}}" (visible) (works without encoding)
* g) "]]" (not visible, do NOT encode)
Note that the HTML parser can split the string into multiple lines
(or more lines than requested by EOL:s) if there are spaces in                  !!!FIXME!!! EOL to <br> and underscore to space
but not if underscores "_" are used instead.

Encoding of text:
* For backlinks and redirects we have to urlencode the parameter,
  "lfwbrew3url" with help of "{{canonicalurl:...}}" does encode the
  service page "Special:WhatLinksHere" but the target parameter
  must be encoded separately by "mw.uri.encode".
* For the call column, we must preserve the layout of preformatted text
  and block all parsing, but we want to have all the stuff in a link to the
  template, with optionally reduced font size, "lfidecencodbr" does the
  encoding natively blocking all wikilink parsing, HTML tag parsing and HTML
  entity parsing, output from it must be placed into a special inner table
  (see below) ensuring monospace.
* For the output column, we disallow "<nowiki>" and "<syntaxhighlight
  lang="text">" in content coming from the template, further we need special
  handling for "<pre>" where we must encode all "[" "]" "&" to prevent parsing
  of wikilinks (this phenomenon may indeed occur in some cases) and HTML
  entities. Cat insertions inside areas poorly inactivated by "<pre>" are NOT
  caught, they are fixed by encoding in "lfysplitkat" instead.
* For the debug column, we must avoid any parsing, and make spaces, LF:s and
  broken char:s visible, "lfiultencode" provides this natively.

There are several possible ways to display monospaced preformatted text:
* "<pre>" (NOT used for the call)
  + nice appearance with box
  + simple syntax
  - aggressive high-priority tag with inconsistent and dangerous
    behaviour when coming from a template, can cause strip markers
* "<code><nowiki>" (NOT used for the call)
  + less aggressive tag
  + can be combined with "<small>"
  + can be placed into a link
  - "<nowiki>" does not work when coming from a template, still can
    cause strip markers
  - needs manual fixing of spaces and LF:s
  - bad appearance for multiline text, particularly if it
    contains empty lines, no box
* do all manually, use a HTML table for the box (used here for the call)
  + nice appearance with box
  + no aggressive or dangerous tags
  + can vary text size
  + can be placed into a link
  - needs manual fixing of spaces and LF:s
  - needs complicated HTML+CSS

There are several imaginable ways to submit a call to a target
template into a calling proxy ie "pate". None of them is perfect,
and none of them will support plain nested template calls.
* submit target as an anonymous parameter followed by forwarded
  parameters and seize them by "pairs" (NOT used)
  + nice syntax, no extra brackets
  - sortorder of parameters NOT preserved
  - formatting of the call NOT preserved
  - needs some "ultrahidden" parameters for submitting instructions
    into the calling proxy
  - nested template calls will not work and cannot be supported
* complete call protected by rectangular brackets (used here)
  + fairly nice syntax, only 4 extra brackets [[ ]]
  + sortorder of parameters preserved
  + formatting of the call preserved
  + nested template calls can be supported with a workaround
  - syntax is a bit strange with a faked wikilink

There are several ways how to expand a template:
* arxframent:expandTemplate (eats title + table, adds ns prefix, crashes
  on the spot if template does not exist) (NOT used)
* arxframent:preprocess (eats raw string, adds ns prefix if {{ }} is used,
  does NOT work with substitution but this doesn't really matter here)
  (used here)
Note that above methods for expanding a template are NOT expensive whereas
wiki's native "ifexist" and LUA's "getContent()" are. Unfortunately we have
to expand two times, but both are free. In order to get free "ifexist" we
need "msgnw:", but for the main work we must avoid "msgnw:".
Another problem are strip markers deeply buried in the design of MediaWiki.
Some aggressive tags such as <pre> and <nowiki> in a classic template being
expanded result in strip markers, whereas this does NOT occur if a module
generates such content. The function "mw.text.unstrip" is inherently useless
since it returns raw text for <nowiki> (with the tags removed), and a
completely empty string in all other cases including <pre>.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

### Arrangements

There are several useful styles to arrange template calls.

Inline compact:
  {{doall|now|priority=urgent}}

Inline with spaces:
  {{ doall | now | priority = urgent }}

Multiline with spaces:
  {{ taxobox
  | domain = none
  | kingdom = fungi
  | phylum = unknown
  }}

Chess:
  {{chessboard
  |--|--|--|--|kd|--|--|rd
  |--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--
  |--|--|--|--|--|bl|--|pl
  |--|--|--|rl|--|kl|pd|pl
  |--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--
  |--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--
  |--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--
  |--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--
  |btm = deliver checkmate in two moves
  }}

We do NOT really bother, and keep the complete call to the target template
as-is except replacing outer [[ ]] by {{ }}. We must, however, isolate
the target title (since we link to it in various ways), and strip
all possible whitespace around it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

### Examples of usage

Two templates (by default tab=2 and sel=111-110):
  {{pate|:top}}
  {{pate|hr3}}
  {{pate|hr4}}
  {{pate|:end}}

Two templates with manually selected some columns (by default tab=2):
  {{pate|sel=110-110|:top}}
  {{pate|sel=110-110|hr3}}
  {{pate|sel=110-110|hr4}}
  {{pate|:end}}

Two templates with manually selected all columns (by default tab=2):
  {{pate|sel=111-111|:top}}
  {{pate|sel=111-111|hr3}}
  {{pate|sel=111-111|hr4}}
  {{pate|:end}}

One template suboptimal way horizontal table (by default tab=2):
  {{pate|sel=110-100|:top}}
  {{pate|sel=110-100|Pengguna transportasi publik}}
  {{pate|:end}}

One template better way horizontal table:
  {{pate|tab=3|sel=110-100|Pengguna transportasi publik}}

One template better way horizontal table without title row:
  {{pate|tab=4|sel=110-100|Pengguna transportasi publik}}

One template better way vertical table (no way to show multiple templates):
  {{pate|tab=5|sel=110-100|Pengguna transportasi publik}}

One template minimal use no table, used only to suppress
categorization (tab=0 brings default sel=010-000):
  {{pate|tab=0|Pengguna transportasi publik}}

One template reduced output show only parsed result and categories:
  {{pate|tab=3|sel=010-100|Pengguna transportasi publik}}

One template reduced output show only parsed result
and categories, and without title row:
  {{pate|tab=4|sel=010-100|Pengguna transportasi publik}}

Two different calls to one template with custom title (by default tab=2):
  {{pate|sel=110-111|:top|tit=CALL@@PARSED@@REM@@CAT@@BACK-LINKS@@DEBUG}}
  {{pate|sel=110-111|[[ambox|text=this is a test|bgcolor=FF8080]]}}
  {{pate|sel=110-111|[[ambox|text=this is a test|bgcolor=#FF8080]]|rem=invalid usage}}
  {{pate|:end}}

One template suboptimal way horizontal table small text (by default tab=2):
  {{pate|sel=111-000|:top}}
  {{pate|sel=211-000|[[
    taxobox
    | domain = none
    | kingdom = fungi
    | phylum = unknown
  ]]}}
  {{pate|:end}}

One template better way horizontal table small text:
  {{pate|tab=3|sel=211-000|[[
    taxobox
    | domain = none
    | kingdom = fungi
    | phylum = unknown
  ]]}}

* make sure to use same value for "sel=" for the ":top" call and
  all core calls below it
* do NOT feed "tab=" or "sel=" into the final ":end" call
* make sure to use the colon in ":top" and ":end", this convention allows
  to call templates named "top" and "end"
* the order of named parameters relative to each other and to the only
  anonymous parameter technically does not matter, but the style above
  with "tab=" and "sel=" preceding the big anonymous parameter and all other
  named parameters following it is strongly encouraged for best readability

-- module has brewed something with "[["..."]]" and repeated spaces but we
-- want to see plain text for debugging purposes. Thus we dec-encode some
-- char:s, use NBSP to fix spaces, workaround EOL, and maybe add colour.

-- Input  : * strkrampuj  : string, empty tolerable, but type "nil" is NOT
--          * nummxwidth  : maximal width of text (20...200, default 80)
--          * boowarrna   : "true" to enable color
--          * boosplitutf : "true" to split UTF8 char:s into hex numbers

-- Output : * strkood     : string, empty in worst case

-- Depends on functions :
-- [U] lfulnutf8char
-- [G] lfgtestnum lfgtestuc lfgtestlc lfgis62safe
-- [N] lfuint8tohex
-- [E] mathdiv mathmod

-- Depends on constants :
-- * string constrpilen [[File:...]]
-- * table contabempatwarna 0...3

-- This helps with:
-- * "[["..."]]", "["..."]", "*", "#", ":" (note that there is no
--   problem with plain "{{"..."}}")
-- * multiple spaces (they are no longer reduced to one piece due to HTML)
-- * EOL:s (they do not vanish in favor of spaces due to HTML, instead
--   the EOL arrow is showed)
-- * too long lines (they are force-broken)
-- * codes below 32 other than EOL

-- There is also "mw.text.nowiki" with some limitations, most notably
-- about multiple spaces and EOL:s.

-- In order to fix EOL we show the EOL arrow (preceded by space) for every
-- incoming LF, but do a "<br>" only once after multiple subsequent LF:s.

-- We must be UTF8-aware. A UTF8 char must be either split into hex codes,
-- or preserved over its complete length ie not split nor encoded at all.

-- Note that this causes BLOAT. The caller is responsible for
-- adding "<big>"..."</big>" if desired.

---- VERY HIGH LEVEL FUNCTIONS [Y] ----

------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Local function LFYSPLITKAT

-- Split wikitext into two parts, namely cat insertions vs originally
-- visible remainder, format those cat insertions into a list, and
-- maybe brew an extra part too.

-- Input  : * strwikitextin
--          * tabparsmap -- nested: [0] findings | [1] main map |
--                          [2] boundary map -- MUST MATCH !!!
--          * boonohynts
--          * boobypass -- allow bypassing "hlt=1"

-- Output : * tabsplout -- 7 elements [0] str | [1] str | [2] str
--                         [3] num err | [4] num | [5] num dupes | [6] bypass

-- Depends on functions :
-- [W] lfwsplit3title
-- [H] lfhtabletohtmllista
-- [I] lfikatpaldigu lfigetleftright

-- Depends on constants :
-- * 3 strings (plain text) "constrca3d" "constrca4d" "constrca5d"

-- This is our holy core ;-)

-- We take one string and produce 2 strings, one of them for the cat
-- insertions, and the other one for the remaining ie originally visible
-- content. We walk forwards through string "strwikitextin" char after char
-- from begin of string to the end and take care of all "[[" (maybe a cat
-- insertion that needs to be cut out) and of "<pre>" (#A22, needs special
-- encoding of the affected area). All found cat insertions (except dupes
-- ie same name) are placed into two temporary tables (name and hint) and
-- skipped (also dupes, including both [[ and ]]) from copying as the main
-- visible content. Subsequently we walk through that table and postprocess
-- all those cat insertions. Finally we format them with help of
-- "lfhtabletohtmllista" into "strkattfinal".

-- A template can produce same cat insertion multiple times. This is not
-- optimal but possible. Even worse, the repetitive cat insertions may vary in
-- the sorting hint, or syntax details such as translated vs non-translated,
-- letter case or extra spaces. We grant a dupe if the names are identical,
-- irrespective of ns prefixes and hints. A target template producing
-- differing dupes would be highly dubious.

-- Visible wikilinks on level 2 are tolerated:
-- [[File:Shoplifting.PNG|thumb|a [[shoplifter]] in [[action]]]]
-- Cat insertions on level 2 are not, they give #S24:
-- [[File:Shoplifting.PNG|thumb|a shoplifter in action [[Category:Crime]]]]
-- We must also defend (with same #S24 on violation) against ordinary
-- wikilink inside a cat insertion:
-- [[Category:Crime|I [[be|am]] criminal]]

-- On a level 1...9 we skip from copying and collect instead into 2
-- destinations parallelly, namely "tabcollectlevel" separated by levels,
-- and into "strflatcoll" in a flat manner. At every "[[" the level is
-- increased (done by previous mapping, above 9 impossible). At level ONE
-- we empty "strflatcoll" and assign "boowasnested" to false. At every
-- level 2...9 we set "boowasnested" to true. It remains true when we
-- later drop back to level ONE. At every "]]" we close a level and
-- check title from "tabcollectlevel" invoking "lfwsplit3title" caring
-- about possible ":" whether it's a cat insertion assigning "boocathere".
-- A cat on level different from ONE gives immediate abort with #S24. When
-- closing level ONE going back to ZERO and
-- cat and "boowasnested" true then we abort with #S24, else ("boowasnested"
-- false) we try to store the cat, note that "tabcollectlevel[1]" and
-- "strflatcoll" had same content in that situation (sinking from ONE
-- to ZERO, cat here, and "boowasnested" false). If no cat then we dump
-- the accumulated text inside [[ ]] into "strmainout" instead.

-- The upper loop uses 4 tables, 3 of them are parallel and limited
-- to 12 cat:s (names, hints, bypass flags). A bypassed cat must look like:
-- <span title="bypass-pate">[[Kategori:Tracking-ubx-text-too-long]]</span>
-- Only if parameter "boobypass" requests it, we check for bypassed cat:s.
-- Only if bypass and not dupe, we count it in "booisbypas".
-- Up to 4 such are added into "strallbypass" standardized with possible hint.  !!!FIXME!!! imp incomplete

-- Sorting hints are displayed after the categories. For
-- example "[[Category:Crap|tujuh]]" gives visible text
-- "Category:<br>Crap| (<small>tujuh</small>)" where the visible wall must
-- be encoded (there is one more wall before that is NOT encoded). Spaces
-- in the hint are converted to underscores "_". The brackets make              !!!FIXME!!! underscores and why this ??
-- hints with spaces (like "[[Category:Crap| tujuh]]") more visible.

-- The cat insertions are formatted here (empty result impossible), whereas
-- the remaining ie originally visible content is raw (empty result possible).
