           Summary: Finish replacing old poweredbyico and copyrightico
                    with $wgFooterIcons
           Product: MediaWiki

          Hardware: All
                OS: All

$wgFooterIcons has been implemented. However we still have some old
getPoweredBy, poweredbyico, a SkinGetPoweredBy hook etc... which does not use
$wgFooterIcons.

As a result old skins don't display footer icons right.

To properly finish off bug 22463 we should properly eliminate the hook and
replace the stuff outputting poweredbyico and copyrightico.

There are a few options:
* Try and hack some deprecation code in that puts stuff from wgFooterIcons into
poweredbyico and copyrightico. (Note that due to wgFooterIcons supporting extra
areas, icons in other areas won't show up)
* Completely remove poweredbyico and copyrightico forcing old skins to just
upgrade and use footer icons. (ie: the old icon code will be deleted and
poweredbyico and copyrightico will be set to empty strings)
