Switching a WordPress site from HTTP to HTTPS has historically been a tedious task. While on the surface the Site Address and WordPress Address have to be updated, existing content still remains using HTTP URLs where hard-coded in the database. Furthermore, updating _two_ URLs to migrate to HTTPS is still a fairly unintuitive step which is not clearly explained.
This changeset simplifies migration from HTTP to HTTPS and, where possible, makes it a one-click interaction.
* Automatically replace insecure versions of the Site Address (`home_url()`) with its HTTPS counterpart on the fly if the site has been migrated from HTTP to HTTPS. This is accomplished by introducing a `https_migration_required` option and enabling it when the `home_url()` is accordingly changed.
* A new `wp_replace_insecure_home_url()` function is hooked into various pieces of content to replace URLs accordingly.
* The migration only kicks in when the Site Address (`home_url()`) and WordPress Address (`site_url()`) match, which is the widely common case. Configurations where these differ are often maintained by more advanced users, where this migration routine would be less essential - something to potentially iterate on in the future though.
* The migration does not actually update content in the database. More savvy users that prefer to do that can prevent the migration logic from running by either deleting the `https_migration_required` option or using the new `wp_should_replace_insecure_home_url` filter.
* For fresh sites that do not have any content yet at the point of changing the URLs to HTTPS, the migration will also be skipped since it would not be relevant.
* Expose a primary action in the Site Health recommendation, if HTTPS is already supported by the environment, built on top of the HTTPS detection mechanism from [49904]. When clicked, the default behavior is to update `home_url()` and `site_url()` in one go to their HTTPS counterpart.
* A new `wp_update_urls_to_https()` function takes care of the update routine.
* A new `update_https` meta capability is introduced to control access.
* If the site's URLs are controlled by constants, this update is not automatically possible, so in these scenarios the user is informed about that in the HTTPS status check in Site Health.
* Allow hosting providers to modify the URLs linked to in the HTTPS status check in Site Health, similar to how that is possible for the URLs around updating the PHP version.
* A `WP_UPDATE_HTTPS_URL` environment variable or `wp_update_https_url` filter can be used to provide a custom URL with guidance about updating the site to use HTTPS.
* A `WP_DIRECT_UPDATE_HTTPS_URL` environment variable or `wp_direct_update_https_url` filter can be used to provide a custom URL for the primary CTA to update the site to use HTTPS.

Following up on [49904], this changeset focuses mainly on improving the guidance about the current state of HTTPS in Site Health.
* Correct the existing copy to indicate that both the Site Address and the WordPress Address need to be changed to fully switch to HTTPS.
* Link to the respective input fields via anchor links rather than to the overall General Settings screen.
* Show different copy if the site is using HTTPS for the WordPress Address (for example to have only the administration panel in HTTPS), but not for the Site Address.
* Inform the user about potential problems even when the site is already using HTTPS, for example if the SSL certificate was no longer valid.
* Always rely on fresh information for determining HTTPS support issues in Site Health, and therefore change the `https_status` test to become asynchronous.
* Rename the new private `wp_is_owned_html_output()` function to a more appropriate `wp_is_local_html_output()`.

In [49154] the async Site Health tests were changed to use the REST API instead of admin-ajax. An unintended side effect of this change was that the loopback tests which tried to ping the site's `admin_url()` were no longer authenticated because admin-cookies aren't provided to the REST API.
This commit adjusts the loopback test to use the front-end `site_url` which checks that cron will function properly. A follow-up ticket will focus on tests that will cover the file editor checks.

This changeset modifies the Site Health panel for HTTPS to provide more accurate recommendations based on whether the environment is already set up for HTTPS.
* Introduces `wp_is_using_https()` to check whether the site is configured to use HTTPS (via its Site Address and WordPress Address).
* Introduces `wp_is_https_supported()` to check whether the environment supports HTTPS. This relies on a cron job which periodically checks support using a loopback request.

App Passwords rely on the Authorization header to transport the Basic Auth credentials. For Apache web servers, WordPress automatically includes a RewriteRule to populate the value for servers running in CGI or FastCGI that wouldn't ordinarily populate the value.
This tests if the header is being filled with the expected values. For Apache users, we direct the user to visit the Permalinks settings to flush their permalinks. For all other users, we direct them to a help document on developer.wordpress.org.

This allows Site Health tests to check if the current environment type is set to `development` or `local`.
Use the new method:
* In HTTPS tests, instead of a hardcoded check for `localhost`.
* In `WP_DEBUG` and `WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY` tests, to set the status to `recommended` instead of `critical`.

This change adds additional logic to catch HTTP failures that do not return a `WP_Error` object (for example, a wp-json REST API error error).
This also fixes instances where REST API callbacks performed from cron do not work due to a lack of authentication by introducing a direct callback route that asynchronous tests can register.

When `noopener noreferrer` was originally added in #37941 and related tickets, the `noreferrer` bit was specifically included due to Firefox not supporting `noopener` at the time.
Since `noopener` has been supported by all major browsers for a while, it should now be safe to remove the `noreferrer` attribute from core.

Using the canonical function name for PHP functions is strongly recommended, as aliases may be deprecated or removed without (much) warning.
This replaces all uses of the following:
* `join()` with `implode()`
* `sizeof()` with `count()`
* `is_writeable()` with `is_writable()`
* `doubleval()` with a `(float)` cast

This provides more flexibility when writing tests and benefits from running in a front-end context which is necessary for some tests like checking that updates are supported. Additionally, this provides a more robust interface for developers who want to integrate with Site Health tests.
Because the `wp/v2` endpoint is reserved for modeling core entities, site health is registered in its own `wp-site-health/v1` namespace.
The existing ajax actions have been maintained for backward compatibility.

“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.
