Done. Note that automatic topic subscriptions are only included in MediaWiki version 1.38.0-wmf.9, which isn't deployed to Wikipedias yet (but it should be later today).

(If in doubt, check T293950: 1.38.0-wmf.9 deployment blockers and Special:Version on the wiki.)

I have doubts about it, given that it’s not even deployed to group1 wikis currently, see T293950#7514870 (but group0 wikis do have it, so this patch can be QAd on a group0 wiki, for example on mediawiki.org).

Indeed, it hasn't been deployed (althought it's due to a different blocking issue). So automatic topic subscriptions are not live.
