Allow users to access Special:NewProperty when federation is enabled
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Refer to T255576

In the MVP of federated properties, only remote properties can be used when federation is enabled. Local properties are not supported and will cause issues [See T255404]. To prevent Wikibase editors from creating local properties and unintentionally breaking their instance, we prevented access to Special:NewProperty. In the v2 of this feature, users should be able to create local properties when federation is enabled.

BDD (Scenario: viewing SpecialPages)
Given My Wikibase has federated properties enabled
When I load the page Special:SpecialPages
Then Special:New Property IS displayed in the list of Wikibase special pages

BDD (Scenario: directly navigating to NewProperty)
Given My Wikibase has federated properties enabled
When I try to access wiki/Special:NewProperty
Then the page loads as expected
