[Story] record wikibase recent change entries attributed as non-anon

Description

right now, we don't have a good way to tie external edits (e.g. from wikidata) to a user on the client.

With single user accounts on wmf, that could provide way.

If central auth is not available (e.g. on third-party wikis), then it would be good to have another identifier for rc_id for "external" users, like -1. Or figure out another way to better handle these so they do not show up as "anon".

Issue shown via RC Filters (from T162628: 'Wikidata edits' filter does not recognize registered wikidata users ):

On wiki that has RC filters enabled, select 'Wikidata edits ' and 'Unregistered'
The above filters selection shows wikidata registered users ; 'Wikidata edits' and 'Registered' will return no results.

matej_suchanek merged a task: T104806: hideanons=1 on Special:recentchanges hides all wikidata changes including edits done by registered users on wikidata.

I started work on T162628: 'Wikidata edits' filter does not recognize registered wikidata users earlier, and saw that matej_suchanek linked it to here this morning. I think this is actually a duplicate.

I'm going to keep working on this, but I'll ping in the #wikidata IRC to make sure people are aware and we can discuss if needed.

I think the suggestion here of using -1 if CentralAuth is not available (it can also be if particular edge case accounts are not linked for some reason) is better than 0 which I said at T162628: 'Wikidata edits' filter does not recognize registered wikidata users .
