We're not discussing composer in the way extensions use it.

We're only discussing the possibility that a *git* clone of core should
require either `composer install` or `git submodules update --init` to
run as new 3rd party libraries we use wouldn't be carelessly dumped into
the mediawiki/core repo anymore.
Tarballs will continue to be bundled with all 3rd party libraries we use
and will still work out of the box.
