Sections can be nested. Using rendering/skin as the parent
means that Vector's skin preference will always come straight
after the skin preference and before Popups.
A change in core is needed to update the selector for the element which
shows/hides the subsection as well as provide a generic message key to
replace the one inside this repository.
Note: If the "Vector" specific heading is needed, we can achieve this
with a little more work but that is a conversation for another time.

Moving all the templateParser calls to one function
so its easier to see how the template is composed.
The diff of changes to the stories folder highlight
the internal changes which are:
* html-portals replaced with html-sidebar in main template
* new Sidebar template added which outputs to html-sidebar
* Mention of "MainMenu" replaced with better understood "Sidebar"
This is precursory work to adopt templatePartials

Add a Vector-specific user preference to Special:Preferences for
toggling skin version, either Legacy Vector or the latest Vector.
The presentation of the new preference section and the default values
for anonymous, new, and existing accounts are configurable via
$wgVectorShowSkinPreferences, $wgVectorDefaultSkinVersion (to be used by
the feature manager in T244481),
$wgVectorDefaultSkinVersionForExistingAccounts, and
$wgVectorDefaultSkinVersionForNewAccounts. These configurations default
to the fullest experience so that third-party configuration is minimal.
See skin.json for details. The configurations are each tested in
VectorHooksTest.php.
When presentation is enabled, the new preference appears as a checkbox;
enabled is Legacy mode and disable is latest. There are a number of
unfortunate details:
- Showing and hiding a checkbox is supported by OOUI. Showing and hiding
a whole section (Vector skin preferences, in this case) is not so this
additional client JavaScript functionality is added in Core (see
Iaf68b238a8ac7a4fb22b9ef5d6c5a3394ee2e377).
- Stylization as a checkbox is wanted. However, the implied storage type
for OOUI checkboxes is a boolean. This is not wanted in the event that
another skin version is added (e.g., '3' or 'alpha'). As a workaround,
the preference is converted from a boolean to a version string ('1' or
'2') on save in Hooks::onPreferencesFormPreSave() and from a version
string to a checkbox enable / disable string ('1' or '0') in
onGetPreferences(). There a number of test cases to help cover these
concerning details.
Documentation for overriding the skin version as a URL query parameter
is provided in anticipation of T244481.
