06cddbd3b3 Privacy: Improve naming of user confimed action email filters.
The filters `user_confirmed_action_email_content`, `user_erasure_complete_email_subject`, and `user_erasure_complete_email_headers` have been deprecated.

They have been replaced with `user_erasure_fulfillment_email_content`, `user_erasure_fulfillment_email_subject`, and `user_erasure_fulfillment_email_headers`.

a07a6490ab Users: Pass on the user data received by wp_insert_user() to related hooks.
This adds a new parameter to the action and filter hooks found in `wp_insert_user()` to pass the raw user data received through `$userdata` to hooked functions.

This will allow hooked functions to perform more contextual adjustments to new users, and makes supplying custom user meta fields possible.

0d1e4e553c General: Avoid unnecessary calls to update_user_option().
The `update_user_option()` function is a way to update a user meta value after adding a blog’s prefix to the beginning of the meta key. But when the fourth parameter is `true`, the behavior is exactly the same as calling `update_user_meta()` directly.

This replaces all instances of `update_user_option()` when the fourth parameter is `true` in Core with a direct call to `update_user_meta()` to prevent an unnecessary call to `update_user_option()`.

de519f9dfe Users: Share current user instance across functions.
Share the `WP_User` instance for the current user between the functions `get_userdata()` and `wp_get_current_user()`. Both functions return the `$current_user` global for the current user.

Force refresh the `$current_user` global within `clean_user_cache()` by immediately re-calling `wp_set_current_user()` with the current user's ID. This ensures any changes to the current user's permissions or other settings are reflected in the global. As a side-effect this immediately rewarms the current user's cache.

aac98aae97 App Passwords: Prevent conflicts when Basic Auth is already used by the site.
Application Passwords uses Basic Authentication to transfer authentication details. If the site is already using Basic Auth, for instance to implement a private staging environment, then the REST API will treat this as an authentication attempt and would end up generating an error for any REST API request.

Now, Application Password authentication will only be attempted if Application Passwords is in use by a site. This is flagged by setting an option whenever an Application Password is created. An upgrade routine is added to set this option if any App Passwords already exist.

Lastly, creating an Application Password will be prevented if the site appears to already be using Basic Authentication.

d5ebe12f11 REST API: Introduce Application Passwords for API authentication.
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.

1651342d2b Privacy: Improve clarity of privacy error strings.
Primarily this adds "user privacy" to the strings for privacy requests, so they are more easily distinguished from other system actions within logs.

d4a319c453 Users: Check if the user ID passed as selected to wp_dropdown_users() corresponds to an existing user.
This avoids a few PHP notices if the `include_selected` parameter was specified and a non-existing user ID was passed.

40c389c95e Docs: Standardize on "Returning a value from the filter" vs. "Passing a value to the filter".
The filter is the callback function added with `add_filter()`, therefore the hook passes a value to the filter, and the filter returns a value to change its behaviour.

The documentation is referring to the latter.

4b60af1a6a General: Remove “whitelist” and “blacklist” in favor of more clear and inclusive language.
“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.
