Mediawiki: disable editing of talk pages

Browse source 
We don't use talk pages, people often add notes to them and no one ever
sees them. We want discussion of things on our lists or matrix, not in a
talk page no one reads.

This disables editing talk pages by using the lockdown plugin and only
granting permissions to edit talk pages to 'noone'. Since that group
doesn't exist, no one can edit them.
