This changesets adds a `word_count_type` property, so that it does not need to be translated separately across multiple projects.
List of changes:
- New property: `WP_Locale::word_count_type`.
- New method: `WP_Locale::get_word_count_type()`.
- New function: `wp_get_word_count_type()` as a wrapper for `WP_Locale::get_word_count_type()`.
- All `_x( 'words', 'Word count type. Do not translate!' )` strings have been replaced with a call to `wp_get_word_count_type()`.

Initializing the `WP_Locale` array properties to an empty array at the class definition point. Why?
* Ensure the properties initialize to an `array` data type at instantiation (rather than `null`).
This initialization is needed to ensure the properties are not `null` if another class inherits from `WP_Locale` but does not run `WP_Locale::init()` from the constructor. In this case, the initialization prevents
{{{
Warning: array_values() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given
}}}
when Core uses any of the properties.
* Good design practice.
The code and documentation are clearly expecting these properties to be an `array` data type. Setting each to a default `array()` state further helps to clearly communicate the code design.

Dynamic (non-explicitly declared) properties are deprecated as of PHP 8.2 and are expected to become a fatal error in PHP 9.0.
There are a number of ways to mitigate this:
* If it is an accidental typo for a declared property: fix the typo.
* For known properties: declare them on the class.
* For unknown properties: add the magic `__get()`, `__set()`, et al. methods to the class or let the class extend `stdClass` which has highly optimized versions of these magic methods built in.
* For unknown ''use'' of dynamic properties, the `#[AllowDynamicProperties]` attribute can be added to the class. The attribute will automatically be inherited by child classes.
Trac ticket #56034 is open to investigate and handle the third and fourth type of situations, however it has become clear this will need more time and will not be ready in time for WP 6.1.
To reduce “noise” in the meantime, both in the error logs of WP users moving onto PHP 8.2, in the test run logs of WP itself, in test runs of plugins and themes, as well as to prevent duplicate tickets from being opened for the same issue, this commit adds the `#[AllowDynamicProperties]` attribute to all “parent” classes in WP.
The logic used for this commit is as follows:
* If a class already has the attribute: no action needed.
* If a class does not `extend`: add the attribute.
* If a class does `extend`:
- If it extends `stdClass`: no action needed (as `stdClass` supports dynamic properties).
- If it extends a PHP native class: add the attribute.
- If it extends a class from one of WP's external dependencies: add the attribute.
* In all other cases: no action — the attribute should not be needed as child classes inherit from the parent.
Whether or not a class contains magic methods has not been taken into account, as a review of the currently existing magic methods has shown that those are generally not sturdy enough and often even set dynamic properties (which they should not). See the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDZWepDQQVE live stream from August 16, 2022] for more details.
This commit only affects classes in the `src` directory of WordPress core.
* Tests should not get this attribute, but should be fixed to not use dynamic properties instead. Patches for this are already being committed under ticket #56033.
* While a number bundled themes (2014, 2019, 2020, 2021) contain classes, they are not a part of this commit and may be updated separately.

The list item separator is a locale property, and it doesn't make much sense to translate it separately in multiple projects. This changeset implements the following modifications:
- Define list item separator as a new WP_Locale property
- Add `wp_get_list_item_separator()` as a wrapper for `WP_Locale::get_list_item_separator`
- Replace `$wp_locale->get_list_item_separator()` calls with `wp_get_list_item_separator()`
- Added a compatibility layer for bundled themes

Prior to about 2013, many class methods lacked even access modifiers which made the `@access` notations that much more useful. Now that we've gotten to a point where the codebase is more mature from a maintenance perspective and we can finally remove these notations. Notable exceptions to this change include standalone functions notated as private as well as some classes still considered to represent "private" APIs.
