“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.

The tag was supported in phpDocumentor 1.x, but is no longer supported in 2.x and 3.x.
Usage of static variables is considered an internal implementation detail and has no information value for someone reading the docs.

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`

* Add missing translator comments.
* Fix placement of some translator comments. Translator comments should be on the line directly above the line containing the translation function call for optimal compatibility with various `.pot` file generation tools. The CS auto-fixing, which changed some inconsistent function calls to multi-line function calls, is part of the reason why this was no longer the case for a select group of translator comments.
Includes minor code layout fixes.
Polyglots, rejoice! All WordPress core files now have translator comments for all strings with placeholders!

* `wp-admin` and `wp-includes` are scanned for classes to autoload
* Several 3rd-party and Ryan McCue-shaped libraries are excluded when the classmap is generated, see `composer.json`: `autoload.exclude-from-classmap`
* `wp-vendor/autoload_52.php` is included at the top of `wp-settings.php` - no changes need to be made to unit tests to include the autoloader
* An avalanche of `require()` and `require_once()` calls that loaded class files have been removed from the codebase.
The following files have been added to `svn:ignore` - they are not 5.2-compatible and fail during pre-commit:
* src/wp-vendor/autoload.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_real.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_static.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/ClassLoader.php
We favor these files instead:
* src/wp-vendor/autoload_52.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_real_52.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/ClassLoader52.php
When new PHP classes are added to the codebase, simply run `composer install` or `composer update` from the project root to update the autoloader.
The future is now.

Multisite functions use the term "blog" to refer to what we now call a "site," e.g. `get_current_blog_id()`. These functions are here to stay because of our commitment to backwards compatibility. What we can do is set the documentation straight.

PHP7 is deprecating PHP4 style constructors, so we need to modify our code to have _construct methods that fire before the named PHP4 style constructors. The PHP4 style constructors will call the PHP5 style constructor in case it is being called directly (usually via parent::METHOD).
This modifies external libraries to add PHP5 style constructors, but doesn't add a notice for when they are used. In WordPress core code, PHP4 style constructors are being given a call to _deprecated_constructor. To the PHP4 style constructor I say "I know that I can't take no more | It ain't no lie | I wanna see you out that door | Baby, bye, bye, bye..."
