Change 265201 merged by jenkins-bot:
API changes for AuthManager

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/265201

This is resolved now with the merge of the core AuthManager patches.

There's no timeframe for when this will be available on WMF wikis, though, beyond "soon". The next step will be to resolve T110282, then a gradual deploy while watching for things to break.
