In WordPress 4.4 the REST API was first introduced. A few releases later in WordPress 4.7, the Content API endpoints were added, paving the way for Gutenberg and countless in-site experiences. In the intervening years, numerous plugins have built on top of the REST API. Many developers shared a common frustration, the lack of external authentication to the REST API.
This commit introduces Application Passwords to allow users to connect to external applications to their WordPress website. Users can generate individual passwords for each application, allowing for easy revocation and activity monitoring. An authorization flow is introduced to make the connection flow simple for users and application developers.
Application Passwords uses Basic Authentication, and by default is only available over an SSL connection.

Currently themes can declare support for a given feature by using add_theme_support(). This commit adds a register_theme_feature() API that allows plugins and WordPress Core to declare a list of available features that themes can support.
The REST API uses this to expose a theme's supported features if the feature has been registered with "show_in_rest" set to true.

“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.

While web crawlers are able to discover pages from links within the site and from other sites, XML sitemaps supplement this approach by allowing crawlers to quickly and comprehensively identify all URLs included in the sitemap and learn other signals about those URLs using the associated metadata.
See https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/06/10/merge-announcement-extensible-core-sitemaps/ for more details.
This feature exposes the sitemap index via `/wp-sitemap.xml` and exposes a variety of new filters and hooks for developers to modify the behavior. Users can disable sitemaps completely by turning off search engine visibility in WordPress admin.
This change also introduces a new `esc_xml()` function to escape strings for output in XML, as well as XML support to `wp_kses_normalize_entities()`.

Previously, `wp_favicon_request()` was introduced in [13205] to avoid a performance hit of serving a full 404 page on every favicon request.
While working as intended, that implementation did not provide a way for theme or plugin authors to manage the behavior of favicon requests.
This changeset implements the following logic (only applied if WordPress is installed in the root directory):
* If there is a Site Icon set in Customizer, redirect `/favicon.ico` requests to that icon.
* Otherwise, use the WordPress logo as a default icon.
* If a physical `/favicon.ico` file exists, do nothing, let the server handle the request.
Handling `/favicon.ico` is now more consistent with handling `/robots.txt` requests.
New functions and hooks:
* Introduce `is_favicon()` conditional tag to complement `is_robots()`.
* Introduce `do_favicon` action to complement `do_robots` and use it in template loader.
* Introduce `do_favicon()` function, hooked to the above action by default, to complement `do_robots()`.
* Introduce `do_faviconico` action to complement `do_robotstxt`, for plugins to override the default behavior.
* Mark `wp_favicon_request()` as deprecated in favor of `do_favicon()`.

Using the new fatal handler introduced in [44962], an email is sent to the admin when a fatal error occurs. This email includes a secret link to enter recovery mode. When clicked, the link will be validated and on success a cookie will be placed on the client, enabling recovery mode for that user. This functionality is executed early before plugins and themes are loaded, in order to be unaffected by potential fatal errors these might be causing.
When in recovery mode, broken plugins and themes will be paused for that client, so that they are able to access the admin backend despite of these errors. They are notified about the broken extensions and the errors caused, and can then decide whether they would like to temporarily deactivate the extension or fix the problem and resume the extension.
A link in the admin bar allows the client to exit recovery mode.

This changeset introduces `$post` parameters to `get_the_content()` and
`wp_trim_excerpt()`. When a `$post` object is passed to one of these functions,
the functions will operate on the data from that object, rather than from the
post globals (`$authordata`, `$page`, etc). This ensures that the functions work
in a predictable manner when used outside of the regular post loop.
The global-mismatch problem is surfaced in cases where `get_the_excerpt()` is
called outside of the post loop, on posts that don't have a defined excerpt. In
these cases, the post globals - used to generate a fallback excerpt - may refer
to the incorrect object, resulting in PHP notices or other unpredictable
behavior. See #36934 for a related issue.

Adjusts the packages registration after [43723]:
Combine the different registration functions into one `wp_default_packages` function. To reach this goal move the prefix logic into a function so it can be called from different locations. Use a static variable there to prevent duplicate inclusion of `version.php`.
Call this function from the `wp_default_scripts` action by registering it as a default filter.
Combine some of the logic in `_WP_Editors::print_tinymce_scripts` into `wp_register_tinymce_scripts`. The logic to force an uncompressed TinyMCE script file stays in `_WP_Editors::force_uncompressed_tinymce` because that logic is very specific to the classic editor.
The script handle `wp-tinymce` is now a dependency of the editor script handle. In combination with the previous item, this makes the classic editor work.
Adjust the syntax of the script paths to be more consistent with other WordPress code.
Always use "production" mode for the media files to prevent people from inadvertently committing development files.

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.

Previously, when a plugin updated its suggested privacy policy text, an admin notice was shown on all screens in the Administration Panels. That was done in order to make sure that administrators were aware of it, so that they could update their policy if needed. That was a very heavy-handed and intrusive approach, though, which leads to a poor user experience, and notice fatigue.
An alternative approach is to use bubble notifications in the menu, similar to when plugins have updates that need to be installed. That still makes it obvious that something needs the administrator's attention, but is not as distracting as a notice.
The notice will still appear on the Privacy page, though, since it is relevant to that screen, and provides an explanation of why the bubble is appearing.

The primary means of protecting the files is the CSPRN appended to the filename, but there is no reason to keep the files after the data subject has downloaded them, so deleting them provides an additional layer of protection. Previously this was done from `wp_privacy_generate_personal_data_export_file()`, but that does not guarantee that it will be run regularly, and on smaller sites that could result in export files being exposed for much longer than necessary.
`wp_privacy_delete_old_export_files()` was moved to a front end file, so that it can be called from `cron.php`.
This introduces the `wp_privacy_export_expiration` filter, which allows plugins to customize how long the exports are kept before being deleted.
`index.html` was added to the `$exclusions` parameter of `list_files()` to make sure that it isn't deleted. If it were, then poorly-configured servers would allow the directory to be traversed, exposing all of the exported files.
