In PHP 8.4, declaring function or method parameters with a default value of `null` is deprecated if the type is not nullable.
PHP applications are recommended to ''explicitly'' declare the type as nullable. All type declarations that have a default value of `null`, but without declaring `null` in the type declaration, will emit a deprecation notice:
{{{
function test( array $value = null ) {}
}}}
`Deprecated: Implicitly marking parameter $value as nullable is deprecated, the explicit nullable type must be used instead`
**Recommended Changes**
Change the implicit nullable type declaration to a nullable type declaration, available since PHP 7.1:
{{{#!diff
- function test( string $test = null ) {}
+ function test( ?string $test = null ) {}
}}}
This commit updates the affected instances in core to use a nullable type declaration.

This bugfix resolves an issue in `export_wp()` with featured images.
When using Tools > Export and selecting either Posts or Pages (with or without a specific author), the resulting XML file now includes a XML item for each post|page's featured image attachment and its metadata.
Uses same chunking (for performance) and code patterns from existing code in the same file.
Adds a new test class for `export_wp()` with code coverage specific to this bugfix.

This aims to improve performance by calling `sanitize_url()` directly, instead of the `esc_url_raw()` wrapper. As of WordPress 6.1, `sanitize_url()` is the recommended function for sanitizing a URL for database or redirect usage.

Since WordPress 2.5 and 2.6, `post_content` and `post_excerpt` have both had export-specific filters: `the_content_export`, and `the_excerpt_export`, respectively. `post_title`, however, has used `the_title_rss`, which behaves differently in two important ways:
- It strips HTML tags from the string.
- It HTML-encodes the title string.
These behaviours are not ideal for exports, since it changes the post title, resulting in data loss in export files, and incorrect post duplicate matching on import. This changes replaces the usage of `the_title_rss` with a new filter, `the_title_export`. The new filter is intended to be used in the same as `the_content_export` and `the_excerpt_export`.

This allows for more flexibility when determining which version of a post is the latest one, and makes it possible to implement import logic involving updating and adding revisions to existing posts or pages.

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
In part, this is a follow-up to #47746.

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.

Use of `date()` in core depends on PHP timezone set to UTC and not changed by third party code (which cannot be guaranteed).
`gmdate()` is functionally equivalent, but is not affected by PHP timezone setting: it's always UTC, which is the exact behavior the core needs.

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.

* Takes inspiration from `WP_Post` and adds sanity to comment caching.
* Clarifies when the current global value for `$comment` is returned. The current implementation in `get_comment()` introduces side effects and an occasion stale global value for `$comment` when comment caches are cleaned.
* Strongly-types `@param` docs
* This class is marked `final` for now
