Description

We should have a working implementation of the beacon endpoint in MediaWiki for third-party users who may not be using Varnish.

It should be pretty easy to do. I think this snippet should do the trick, but I'm not sure where to put it.

wfDebugLog( 'EventLogging', $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] );
while ( ob_get_level() ) {
    ob_end_clean();
}
header( 'HTTP/1.1 204 No Content' );

It seems like this could be done with a SpecialPage in EventLogging itself. The event payload could be emitted as a structured PSR3 log event to make further processing from the log sink easier.
