Abstract SpecialCheckUser::addLogEntry()
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Problem
In T245662 we started using SpecialCheckUser::addLogEntry() from SpecialInvestigate::addLogEntries(). This was a quick way to get the log entries added, but added a bit of Technical-Debt that should be fixed at some point.

Proposed Solution
Move the method to a new service that can be used by both special pages.

@dbarratt alternative solution, since its also used in the checkuser api: move it to a trait. See the patch

Oh that's true. The trait works. I suppose even a static class would be fine.

Since T222388, API modules can have services injected into them. :)
