@const is not a valid phpdoc tag and @var should be used to
document both classes properties and constants (no matter how
weird that may sound, heh).
Link to (draft right now) PHP-FIG:
https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/proposed/phpdoc-tags.md#518-var
So, with this commit we are just replacing all uses by the correct
@var one. Note that the type is entirely optional, in fact I think
that there isn't much need of it for constants because it's obvious
for both humans and machines which the type is. But, as far as it's
also correct to specify it, we haven't modified that detail.
The only detail modified are the cases where the constant name was
specified in the phpdoc, that's not needed, hence, the names have
been removed from there when present (a couple of cases).
Four core library classes renamed for autoloading with deprecated stubs
have been converted to the new scheme for autoloading.
They are:
* textlib
* collatorlib
* plugin_manager
* plugininfo_base
These will be removed in 2.9 by MDL-46124
To fully describe why the debugging warning was displayed, it is important to
display all three values - required locale, actual locale and the valid locale.
