Shortcode "self-awareness" about shortcode HOT 2 CLOSED

Shortcode shouldn't know anything about the context it's being used in, there should be a class called (proposition) ContextAwareShortcode that extends it, provides the same interface (ShortcodeInterface could be helpful for reusable shortcode implementations) and could be typehinted for shortcodes needing that concrete implementation. So far it looks like another BC-breaking idea. 😢

Shortcode handler should control processing of shortcode content (possible nested shortcodes), so ContextAwareShortcode should provide ProcessorInterface instance through getProcessor() method. For now shortcode content is processed before shortcode itself and it's done inside processor so outside control of handler. This is a necessary BC-break, I'm not sure when should it happen.
