cba2612b9e Options, Meta APIs: Introduce prime_options() to load multiple options with a single database request.
WordPress's `get_option()` function generally relies on making individual database requests for each option, however with the majority of options (in most cases) being autoloaded, i.e. fetched once with a single database request and then stored in (memory) cache.

As part of a greater effort to reduce the amount of options that are unnecessarily autoloaded, this changeset introduces an alternative way to retrieve multiple options in a performant manner, with a single database request. This provides a reasonable alternative for e.g. plugins that use several options which only need to be loaded in a few specific screens.

Specifically, this changeset introduces the following functions:
* `prime_options( $options )` is the foundation to load multiple specific options with a single database request. Only options that aren't already cached (in `alloptions` or an individual cache) are retrieved from the database.
* `prime_options_by_group( $option_group )` is a convenience wrapper function for the above which allows to prime all options of a specific option group (as configured via `register_setting()`).
* `get_options( $options )` is another wrapper function which first primes the requested options and then returns them in an associative array, calling `get_option()` for each of them.

65a442fbcd Options, Meta APIs: Expand $autoload parameter documentation.
This changeset expands documentation of the `$autoload` parameter of the `add_option()` and `update_option()` functions, in order to provide more context on what autoloading is and which considerations should go into the decision whether to autoload an option.

Excessive autoloading of options can lead to severe performance problems on some sites, and lack of documentation is a partial cause for the issue.

131c378f6a Code Modernization: Rename parameters that use reserved keywords in wp-includes/option.php.
While using reserved PHP keywords as parameter name labels is allowed, in the context of function calls using named parameters in PHP 8.0+, this will easily lead to confusion. To avoid that, it is recommended not to use reserved keywords as function parameter names.

This commit renames the `$default` parameter to `$default_value` in:
* `get_option()`
* `get_user_setting()`
* `get_site_option()`
* `get_network_option()`
* `filter_default_option()`

1664e1a05f Networks and Sites: Revert the use of the metadata API for *_network_options functions.
[54080] refactored the logic in `get_network_option()`, `update_network_option()` and `delete_network_option()` to use the metadata API. However, this change resulted in issues with large multisite installs that utilize memcached having network options > 1MB in size.

6151fddb6c Code Modernization: Pass correct default value to setcookie() in wp_user_settings().
The `wp_user_settings()` function calls the PHP native `setcookie()` function, the fifth parameter of which is the ''optional'' `$domain` parameter which expects a `string`.

A parameter being optional, however, does not automatically make it nullable.

As of PHP 8.1, passing `null` to a non-nullable PHP native function will generate a deprecation notice.

In this case, this function call yielded a `setcookie(): Passing null to parameter #5 ($domain) of type string is deprecated` notice.

Changing the `null` to an empty string fixes this without a backward compatibility break.

4fe5f325ad Options, Meta APIs: Fix "passing null to non-nullable" deprecations to (get|add|update|delete)_option().
In all four of the `get_option()`, `add_option()`, `update_option()` and `delete_option()` functions, the `$option` parameter (i.e. the option name) is passed to the PHP native `trim()` function without prior input validation.

In PHP 8.1, this could lead to a `trim(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated` for each of these functions.

`trim()`:

- expects a text string and is only useful when ''passed'' a text string as no other variable type can contain whitespace.
- will always return a `string`, which means that in practice for any non-string values passed, it would effectively function as a type cast to string.

This commit:
- Adds a check to verify the `$option` name is a scalar before processing it with `trim()`.
- The "type cast" behavior is maintained.
- If the given `$option` name is not a scalar, such as `null`, the fix prevents the PHP 8.1 deprecation notice.
- Tests are added for valid but undesired option names to safeguard against regressions.

This issue is already covered by:
- the existing `Tests_Option_Option::test_bad_option_names()` test group.
- the new `test_valid_but_undesired_option_names()` tests.

6cab8cce22 General: Update code for readability and inclusion
There are two pieces in here:

1) The update to change blacklist to blocklist is moved to disallowed_list. "Block" has a meaning in our code, and there could be ambiguity between this code and code related to blocks.

2) This improves backwards compatibility for code that was accessing the now deprecated code.

Previously: [48477], [48405], [48400], [48121], [48122], [48124], [48142], [48566]

fdd88e24ed General: Rename the $new_whitelist_options global variable.
This change renames `$new_whitelist_options` to `$new_allowed_options`. This makes the variable’s purpose more clear, and promotes using more inclusive language.

For backwards compatibility, the new variable is passed by reference to the old one.

Follow up to [48121].

40c389c95e Docs: Standardize on "Returning a value from the filter" vs. "Passing a value to the filter".
The filter is the callback function added with `add_filter()`, therefore the hook passes a value to the filter, and the filter returns a value to change its behaviour.

The documentation is referring to the latter.

4b60af1a6a General: Remove “whitelist” and “blacklist” in favor of more clear and inclusive language.
“The WordPress open source community cares about diversity. We strive to maintain a welcoming environment where everyone can feel included.”

With this commit, all occurrences of “whitelist” and “blacklist” (with the single exception of the `$new_whitelist_options` global variable) are removed. A new ticket has been opened to explore renaming the `$new_whitelist_options` variable (#50434).

Changing to more specific names or rewording sentences containing these terms not only makes the code more inclusive, but also helps provide clarity. These terms are often ambiguous. What is being blocked or allowed is not always immediately clear. This can make it more difficult for non-native English speakers to read through the codebase.

Words matter. If one contributor feels more welcome because these terms are removed, this was worth the effort.
