This change adds a new way for users to quickly identify what version of WordPress they are looking at, directly from the "Help" sidebar on the main "Dashboard" page.
* Stable versions will link to their respective support documents.
* Development versions (alpha/beta/RC) will not link anywhere.

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`

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.

Reverting this for 4.9. It will be added back in a future version of WordPress. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't be trying Gutenberg, just that it isn't ready for a call out to a larger audience. But if you are the type to read commit messages, https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg could use your pull requests and comments on issues.

* Open the door for future browser history feature in #28536, which is currently not feasible when customize-loader is used.
* Remove customizer-loader from being used on admin screens for Dashboard, Themes, non-shiny theme install/update.
* Keep the customize-loader functionality available for plugins, for the time being. It may become deprecated.
* Ensure `return` param in customizer links in Themes screen update to reflect `search` updated by `pushState`.
* Persist `return` when reloading Customizer due to theme switch, autosave restoration, or changeset trashing.
* Use `location.replace()` instead of changing `location.href` when trashing.
* Hide theme browser while Themes screen is loading when there is a `search` to prevent flash of unfiltered themes.
* Use throttling instead of debouncing when searching themes to ensure that screen is updated immediately on page load.
* Fix encoding and decoding of `search` param between URL and search field.
* Add support for dismissing autosaves when closing customize-loader, when it is used by plugins.
* Skip sending changeset UUID to customize-loader for population in browser location if changeset branching is not enabled.

Previously we ensured that the entry points to WordPress were parsable by PHP4 in order to display a friendly not-supported-php error message.
However, for the last two years the main entry points have not actually parsed, and we've only added extra parse errors since it last worked in 3.9, so it's time we just remove this 'feature'.
The PHP version checks are still there for PHP 5.0/5.1, and so it's inplace when we eventually drop PHP 5.2 support.

The plugin details modal has been greatly improved in [37714]. However, Shiny Updates aren't yet implemented on the Dashboard. Therefore, we need to fall back to The Bleak Screen of Sadness. Otherwise nothing happens when trying to install an update from inside the modal.

Avoid references to "visual" positions in favour of positions in the document
structure. The help text shouldn't assume users can see.
Also, in the Posts screen don't mention specific types of posts and use a more
generic text instead.

Known functions, classes, and methods are now auto-linked in Code Reference pages following #meta1483.
Note: Hook references are still linked via inline `@see` tags due to the unlikelihood of reliably matching for known hooks based on a RegEx pattern.

First step towards restoring a good heading structure in wp-admin.
The previous `<h1>` contained the site title and a link to the front page and was removed with the toolbar refactoring in 3.2.

These commits were accidentally re-synced commits from develop.svn.wordpress.org due to a race condition. Thankfully, the history of this repository matters fairly little. It also happened only for trunk.
