Change Details

To allow T17294 to be implemented, the existing database table `globalblocks` (and potentially `global_block_whitelist` too) need to be able to store the central ID associated with the target of the block. This will be `0` when the target of the block is an IP and will be set to a value other than `0` when the target of the block is a user. This is split from T17294 to make it easier to review the changes needed for T17294 and allow the database migration to occur on WMF wikis ahead of the review for the rest of the code.
