AFAIUI there cannot be such a list, as messages are only
"referred to" at run-time, and while a lot of code does this
by "wfMessage( 'welcome-to' )" and similar constructs, those
identifiers can also be determined dynamically, the process
can be handled by wrapper functions, etc.

Code reviewed for MediaWiki *should* always add the message
to languages/messages/MessagesEn.php, but that is a social
convention, not a technical requirement.
