The GettingStarted task order randomization
(https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/49975/) is ready for testing on toro.

When you refresh http://toro.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:GettingStarted,
the order of the three task categories will be randomized.

LGTM after trying it out on Toro.

This works by using three MediaWiki messages, which currently delegate
to templates.

MediaWiki:gettingstarted-task-1 - Template:Gettingstarted copyediting
MediaWiki:gettingstarted-task-2 - Template:Gettingstarted clarification
MediaWiki:gettingstarted-task-3 - Template:Gettingstarted adding links

I assume this means we can simply have the backend Ori is building feed in to these MediaWiki messages, instead of the templates, but that if a local project wants to use templates or any other custom content, they can?

Note, it is a known issue that the clarification message shows the
message keys when you click that question mark.

Speaking of: btw it seems after this change to the randomization version, the 'on hover' action is not working, though they appear on click. I figure we're just waiting for review/merge/update?
