`str_starts_with()` was introduced in PHP 8.0 to perform a case-sensitive check indicating if the string to search in (haystack) begins with the given substring (needle).
WordPress core includes a polyfill for `str_starts_with()` on PHP < 8.0 as of WordPress 5.9.
This commit replaces `0 === strpos( ... )` with `str_starts_with()` in core files, making the code more readable and consistent, as well as improving performance.
While `strpos()` is slightly faster than the polyfill on PHP < 8.0, `str_starts_with()` is noticeably faster on PHP 8.0+, as it is optimized to avoid unnecessarily searching along the whole haystack if it does not find the needle.
Follow-up to [52039], [52040], [52326].

This changeset improves admin forms accessibility by adding labels to the following read-only form fields:
- Network setup screen: new visible label to the four textareas for code users need to paste into their wp-config file and the server configuration file (web.config or .htaccess).
- `setup-config.php`: new visible label to one textarea for code to include in the `wp-config` file manually.
- Admin toolbar: adds an `arial-label` attribute to the old "shortlink" feature (not used anymore but still activable by plugins).

This changes some admin-area, user-facing text, to better match the guidelines and recommendations set forth in the make/core handbook, specifically:
> the word “we” should be avoided (...) unless its made very clear which group is speaking

For a number of years, most of the WordPress error messages have been prefixed with "Error:". However, these messages appear in a context where it's already clear an error occurred. Whether it's an error, a warning, or any other classification, that's not so relevant for users. The content of the message is the relevant part. The "Error:" prefix doesn't add great value while it does add unnecessary complexity for the message readability.
Also, revises some of these messages to improve clarity and removes HTML from translatable strings.

This avoids the performance overhead of the function call every time `dirname( __FILE__ )` was used instead of `__DIR__`.
This commit also includes:
* Removing unnecessary parentheses from `include`/`require` statements. These are language constructs, not function calls.
* Replacing `include` statements for several files with `require_once`, for consistency:
* `wp-admin/admin-header.php`
* `wp-admin/admin-footer.php`
* `wp-includes/version.php`

* Add missing translator comments.
* Fix placement of some translator comments. Translator comments should be on the line directly above the line containing the translation function call for optimal compatibility with various `.pot` file generation tools. The CS auto-fixing, which changed some inconsistent function calls to multi-line function calls, is part of the reason why this was no longer the case for a select group of translator comments.
Includes minor code layout fixes.
Polyglots, rejoice! All WordPress core files now have translator comments for all strings with placeholders!

- adds `role="presentation"` to the edit comment table
- removes a few pointless `<fieldset>` elements
- adds a few missing `<label>` elements
- adds the CSS class `class="td-full"` to table rows spanning to multiple cells
- adds explicit `scope="row"` attribute to the table headers in `options-permalink.php`: this table is better communicated as data table
- uses consistent label association in the "Privacy Settings" page
- in the installation page "Set up your database connection": associates descriptions to their inout fields using `aria-describedby`
- improves the link to gravatar.com in the `user-edit.php` page

Adds `role="presentation"` to the `<table>` elements used for layout purposes.
Ideally, HTML tables should be used for tabular data. When tables are used for layout purposes, it's important to remove any native semantics so that assistive technologies can correctly announce the table content in a linearized fashion.

WPCS 1.0.0 includes a bunch of new auto-fixers, which drops the number of coding standards issues across WordPress significantly. Prior to running the auto-fixers, there were 15,312 issues detected. With this commit, we now drop to 4,769 issues.
This change includes three notable additions:
- Multiline function calls must now put each parameter on a new line.
- Auto-formatting files is now part of the `grunt precommit` script.
- Auto-fixable coding standards issues will now cause Travis failures.

"Install" is not a noun, and while it might be acceptable to use the verb as a noun, it is not correct. Using the correct
noun, "installation", increases clarity, especially for non-native English speakers.
