The Site Health tool serves two purposes:
- Provide site owners with information to improve the performance, reliability, and security of their site.
- Collect comprehensive debug information about the site.
By encouraging site owners to maintain their site and adhere to modern best practices, we ultimately improve the software hygeine of both the WordPress ecosystem, and the open internet as a whole.

The `change` event was previously required to ensure that the Customizer picked detected changes to the widget's content and synced them to the preview. In the current state, though, the `trigger( 'change' )` is no longer required and is causing issues with the widget's “Done” and “Save” buttons.

A direct URL to where a user can update PHP for their website can now be specified in one of two ways:
- Defining the `WP_DIRECT_UPDATE_PHP_URL` environment variable.
- Returning a URL to the `wp_direct_php_update_url` filter.
When a URL is specified, an additional “Update PHP” button will be displayed at the bottom of the Core dashboard widget informing administrators that their site is running an outdated version of PHP (see [42832]).

The filter is only run if the wordpress.org API considers the PHP version acceptable. This ensures that other plugins or hosting providers can only make this check stricter, but not loosen it.

The Gutenberg plugin will not be deactivated on sites upgrading to WordPress 5.1. This deprecates the `upgrade_500_was_gutenberg_active` option and the `upgrade_500()` function as they are no longer required.

Due to the high number of follow-up tickets and associated security concerns, it was decided to reschedule the fatal error recovery feature for WordPress 5.2, in order to address these issues properly. The feature will continue to be developed, with iterations being merged into trunk early in the 5.2 release cycle.

The `WP_Shutdown_Handler` name plus related function names were premature when originally committed, as there can be multiple shutdown handlers in PHP, and WordPress makes use of that feature. This changeset modifies the name to a more appropriate `WP_Fatal_Error_Handler`, and related to that changes the following names:
* The drop-in to override the handler is now called `fatal-error-handler.php`.
* The internal function `wp_register_premature_shutdown_handler` is now called `wp_register_fatal_error_handler()`.
In addition to these naming changes, a new constant `WP_DISABLE_FATAL_ERROR_HANDLER` is introduced that can be set in `wp-config.php` to entirely disable the fatal error handler. That constant's value is and should be accessed indirectly via a new `wp_is_fatal_error_handler_enabled()` function and is filterable via a new `wp_fatal_error_handler_enabled` hook. Note that disabling the fatal error handler will skip the new functionality entirely, including the potentially used `fatal-error-handler.php` drop-in.
The new set of constant, filter and function provide for an easier-to-use mechanism to disable the fatal error handler altogether, rather than requiring developers to implement a drop-in for purely that purpose.

When merging, [44244] and [44260] were committed to trunk the opposite way that they were committed to the 5.0 branch. They were originally committed in [43885] and [43861], respectively.
Due to this switch, a change in how the Custom Fields meta box was registered wasn't merged from the 5.0 branch, causing it to not be registered correctly in trunk.
