Keeping myhacks support is a small price to pay for not breaking people's sites. Even if it is very very very few sites, breaking sites isn't something that should be encouraged. Even with 10 years of deprecation notices.
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/33741#comment:18 outlines all the ways that the hack_file and my-hacks options can be setup and thus all the ways that the removal of those options could break sites.
Fixes#33741.

The `WP_INSTALLING` constant is a flag that WordPress sets in a number of
places, telling the system that options should be fetched directly from the
database instead of from the cache, that WP should not ping wordpress.org for
updates, that the normal "not installed" checks should be bypassed, and so on.
A constant is generally necessary for this purpose, because the flag is
typically set before the WP bootstrap, meaning that WP functions are not yet
available. However, it is possible - notably, during `wpmu_create_blog()` -
for the "installing" flag to be set after WP has already loaded. In these
cases, `WP_INSTALLING` would be set for the remainder of the process, since
there's no way to change a constant once it's defined. This, in turn, polluted
later function calls that ought to have been outside the scope of site
creation, particularly the non-caching of option data. The problem was
particularly evident in the case of the automated tests, where `WP_INSTALLING`
was set the first time a site was created, and remained set for the rest of the
suite.
The new `wp_installing()` function allows developers to fetch the current
installation status (when called without any arguments) or to set the
installation status (when called with a boolean `true` or `false`). Use of
the `WP_INSTALLING` constant is still supported; `wp_installing()` will default
to `true` if the constant is defined during the bootstrap.

For the last 10 years, my-hacks has been deprecated and has been throwing a deprecation notice. For the last six years, you haven't been able to enable my-hacks.php in the admin UI. That should be enough time to give developers notice. Plugins and themes seem like they might have staying power.

This is a restoration of [31749] which was reverted in [31755].
It includes a number of enhancements from the original version. Namely:
* Not doing a credential check in src/wp-includes/script-loader.php
* Add new function `wp_print_request_filesystem_credentials_modal`
* update the version number in the list table when a plugin is updated
UI still needs further work, but this basic version should enable more testing

This is only enabled when new files will not be installed during the update (as indicated by the WordPress.org API), and does not apply to Plugin/Theme/Translation Background Updates.
Additionally, the code to determine if the 'direct' filesystem transport should be used has been tweaked for wider support (where getmyuid() was unavailalbe) which fixes#10424

Per our inline documentation standards, no further use of the `@uses` tag is recommended as used and used-by relationships can be derived through other means. This removes most uses of the tag in core documentation, with remaining tags to be converted to `@global` or `@see` as they apply.
