Tests: Correct a number of malformed `@covers` tags.

As per the documentation of the `@covers` tag, global functions being covered should be prefixed with `::`. Also, the `()` after the function name is redundant.

Follow-up to [39918].

Props jrf.
See #50267.

Build/Test Tools: Update code coverage setup in the `phpunit.xml.dist` file to point to the `build` directory.

This makes the configuration consistent with the `WP_RUN_CORE_TESTS` constant being set to `1` in the same config file.

Additionally, update the list to be in line with the current codebase, excluding the plugins and themes bundled with WordPress core from being considered for code coverage.

Note: If you have a local `phpunit.xml` file that changes the `WP_RUN_CORE_TESTS` constant to `0`, you should also - in the same file - change the code coverage setup to use the `src` directory.

General: Ensure `svn:eol-style` is consistently set for all recently added files.

Fixes #51113.

Tests: Clear any previous term IDs from the metadata lazyloader queue in term meta lazy-loading test.

This fixes random test failures when one of the term IDs from previous tests coincides with the orphan term ID from this test that should not be lazy-loaded.

REST API: In `WP_REST_Block_Directory_Controller::get_items()`, make sure the blocks data for a plugin is not empty before proceeding.

This avoids a PHP notice if the API returns a plugin with empty data for `blocks` key.

Props khag7, TwentyZeroTwo, justinahinon, TimothyBlynJacobs, dd32, SergeyBiryukov.
Fixes #51018.

Editor: Use `wp_add_inline_script()` instead of `wp_localize_script()` to pass the `_wpMetaBoxUrl` value to the `wp-editor` script.

This fixes a PHP 8 "Only the first byte will be assigned to the string offset" warning on Edit Post screen.

The correct usage of `wp_localize_script()` is to pass an array of data, not a string.

Fixes #51108.

Taxonomy: Allow for `wp_count_terms( $args )` signature, making passing a taxonomy optional.

This brings `wp_count_terms()` in line with other taxonomy functions such as `get_terms()` which technically no longer require a taxonomy. Similar to the previously modified functions, no deprecation warning is triggered when using the legacy signature.

Fixes #36399.

Code Modernization: Fix PHP 8 "ArgumentCountError: array_merge() does not accept unknown named parameters" fatal error in `retrieve_widgets()`.

As per the documentation of `call_user_func_array()`, the `$param_arr` should be a (numerically) indexed array, not a string-keyed array.

As we can use the spread operator in PHP 5.6+, there isn't really any need to use `call_user_func_array()` anyhow, we can call the `array_merge()` function directly.

The caveat to this is that the spread operator only works on numerically indexed arrays, so we need to wrap the `$sidebars_widgets` variable in a call to `array_values()` when using the spread operator.

Using `array_values()` in the existing `call_user_func_array()` call would also have solved this, but the solution now proposed, has the added benefit of getting rid of the overhead of `call_user_func_array()`.

Props jrf.
See #50913.

Code Modernization: Fix PHP 8 "argument must be passed by reference, value given" error in `WP_Comment_Query::get_comments()`.

The WP native `get_comment()` function expects the first argument `$comment` to be passed by reference.

The PHP `array_map()` function, however, passes by value, not by reference, resulting in an "arguments must be passed by reference, value given" error.

The PHP native `array_walk()` function does pass by reference. Using this prevents the error on PHP 8 and maintains the existing behaviour on PHP < 8.

Props jrf.
See #50913.

Twenty Nineteen: Remove trailing commas after selectors in `style-editor.scss`.

Remove one empty CSS block.

Props justinahinon.
Fixes #51095.

Privacy: Avoid a PHP 7.4 notice in `WP_Privacy_Policy_Content::text_change_check()`.

Editor: Update the post type labels for the reusable blocks post type.

Previously, the labels for the reusable block post type were just “block”. The document settings tab in the block editor has been changed to use the post type label specified instead to be more specific. Changing the reusable block post type labels to “reusable block” prevents two “Block” tabs from showing in the editor.

Build/Test Tools: Update several NPM dependencies.

These updates were applied by running `npm audit fix`.

Formatting: Make the check for empty text in `wp_trim_excerpt()` more resilient.

This addresses a regression in [47808], which caused excerpts to be generated from post content if an empty string is passed, but not for other values considered empty, e.g. `null` or `false`.

Accessibility: Toolbar: Don't output the "Skip to toolbar" link in modern themes that support the `wp_body_open` action.

The links is unnecessary there, as the toolbar is the first thing in the DOM within the `<body>` element.

For themes that don't implement the `wp_body_open` action yet and render the admin bar in the footer, the "Skip to toolbar" link with `tabindex="1"` is still necessary, to ensure it's the first focusable element in the page.

Follow-up to [48535], [48538], [48539], [48544], [48800].

See #50945.

Site Health: Only display the warning about the `post_max_size` PHP value when it's lower than `upload_max_filesize`.

Previously, the warning was displayed even if the value was higher than `upload_max_filesize`, which made the report inaccurate, as these values don't necessarily have to match.

Code Modernization: Introduce `is_gd_image()` to check for PHP 8 `GdImage` object instances.

In PHP 8, the GD extension uses `GdImage` objects instead of resources for its underlying data structures.

This updates the existing `is_resource()` calls for image resources in core to accomodate for `GdImage` instances as well.

Filesystem API: Use correct variable when closing the file handle in `WP_Filesystem_FTPext::get_contents()`.

Props [email protected]

REST API: Add uniqueItems as a permitted endpoint argument JSON Schema keyword.

Support for the `uniqueItems` keyword was added in [48357], but wasn't included in the list of permitted keywords for `WP_REST_Controller::get_endpoint_args_for_item_schema()`. This prevented the keyword from being automatically supported if specified in a controller's item schema.

Fixes #51021.

Menus: Make the `$object_id` parameter of `_wp_delete_post_menu_item()` required, for consistency with `_wp_delete_tax_menu_item()`.

The function is private (only intended for core usage) and is hooked to the `delete_post` action, which always passes a non-zero post ID.

Follow-up to [14295], [48794].

See #50343.

Code Modernization: Fix PHP 8 deprecation notices for optional function parameters declared before required parameters.

As it already was not possible to pass the required parameters without also passing the optional one anyway, removing the default value for the (not so) optional parameters should not affect backward compatibility.

This change affects three functions in core:

* `get_comment_delimited_block_content()`
* `do_enclose()`
* `_wp_delete_tax_menu_item()`

Code Modernization: Only call `libxml_disable_entity_loader()` in PHP < 8.

See #37110.

Script Loader: Add a temporary `jquery-migrate-compat-5.5` script handle.

This is intended as an easy way for plugins and themes to still be able to load jQuery with jQuery Migrate in WordPress 5.5.

Once jQuery is updated to 3.x, this temporary script handle will be removed. This means plugins and themes still using it at that point will fail to load their scripts (as a dependency will be missing), but will not cause "fatal errors" breaking the rest of JS.

Bootstrap/Load: Remove the `wp_environment_type` and `wp_get_environment_type` filters.

Since `wp_get_environment_type()` runs too early for plugins to hook these filters, and the result is then cached in a static variable and cannot be changed later, the filters are not that useful.

The `WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPES` and `WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE` constants and environment variables should be enough for now.

Post WordPress 5.5 Beta 4 version bump.

WordPress 5.5 Beta 4.

Mail: PHPMailer swap to use is_email for the default validator.

Prior to the PHPMailer update in 5.5, old version of the PHPMailer was setting the validator to 'auto' resulting in a sophisticated logic for determining what email address validation should be used. But the new version defaults to 'php', possibly leading to rejection of email addresses which were fine prior to the upgrade. Let's use the WordPress core function `is_email()` so that it can be fully pluggable.

REST API: Fix warning when using `set_param()` on a JSON request with no body.

In [47559] the `WP_REST_Request::set_param()` method was adjusted to try and overwrite an existing parameter definition before forcing the value in the first parameter slot. If `set_param()` was called on a request with an `application/json` content type and an empty body, a PHP warning would be issued. This was due to the JSON parameter type not being set to an array when the body is empty.

This commit avoids the warning by adding an `is_array()` check before calling `array_key_exists`. Ideally, `WP_REST_Reuest::parse_json_params()` would set the JSON parameter type to an empty array in this case, but that is too large of a change at this point in the cycle.

Props manooweb.
Fixes #50786.

REST API: Install plugin translations after the plugin install. This only installs for the plugin in question, not all plugins.

Support for retrieving the langauge pack alongside the install API request was added in https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/10091 to avoid having to make a plugin update check during the REST API check.

See #50038.

Sitemaps: Replace `wp_sitemaps_register_providers` filter with more suitable `wp_sitemaps_add_provider` filter.

The previous filter failed the goal of allowing developers to filter all providers before they are registered, since it only filtered the built-in ones.

The more specific `wp_sitemaps_add_provider` filter enables exactly that, as it filters every sitemap provider right before it is added to the sitemaps registry.

Fixes #50712.

REST API: Issue a _doing_it_wrong when registering a route without a permission callback.

The REST API treats routes without a permission_callback as public. Because this happens without any warning to the user, if the permission callback is unintentionally omitted or misspelled, the endpoint can end up being available to the public. Such a scenario has happened multiple times in the wild, and the results can be catostrophic when it occurs.

For REST API routes that are intended to be public, it is recommended to set the permission callback to the `__return_true` built in function.

Fixes #50075.
Props rmccue, sorenbronsted, whyisjake, SergeyBiryukov, TimothyBlynJacobs.

REST API, Media: Add `X-WP-Upload-Attachment-ID` HTTP header to enable retrying of post-processing of edited images if the server runs out of resources. This is the same as after uploading a new image, will do up to five additional requests to let the server create all image sub-sizes.

Fixes #50711.

REST API: Make plugin installation tests more robust on alternate test environments.

The REST API plugin installation tests use the `upgrader_pre_download` filter to avoid downloading the test plugin from WordPress.org. Previously, this would apply to any upgrader, which caused issues if the testing environment required a language update.

Now, the filter only overwrites the file if the `Plugin_Upgrader` is being used which should hopefully prevent the issue.

Props pfefferle, TimothyBlynJacobs.
Fixes #50671.

Sitemaps: Ensure correct HTTP status when sitemaps are disabled

If sitemaps are disabled, previously there would be a rewrite rule for the sitemap endpoint. This endpoint would display the homepage since there was a rewrite rule. Now, Sitemaps are loaded, and the proper HTTP headers are returned.
