Commit summary for MediaWiki.r85244:

Drop connetion between Skin and Linker and turn Linker into a staticly usable 
class.

Cneubauer's comment:

I'm obviously a bit late on this, but what was the rationale for going from the 
skin based functions to the static Linker functions?

The FCKeditor extension used to modify parser output by creating a Skin 
subclass that handled links in an FCKeditor specific way. After this change, 
none of that code is called any more in the parser so links created in 
FCKeditor are messed up. See 
https://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/FCKeditor/FCKeditorSkin.body.php?view=markup.
  Is there a better way to manipulate the way the parser creates links?

Thanks.
