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.

Previously, when using `switch_to_locale()` all current loaded text domains were unloaded and added to the `$l10n_unloaded` global. This prevented the just-in-time loading for text domains after a switch. The just-in-time loading was also only possible if the translations were stored in `WP_LANG_DIR`. Both issues have been fixed.
* Adds `WP_Textdomain_Registry` to keep track of the language directory paths for all plugins and themes.
* Updates all `load_*_textdomain()` functions to store the path in `WP_Textdomain_Registry`.
* Adds `$locale` parameter to `load_textdomain()` to specify the locale the translation file is for.
* Adds `$reloadable` parameter to `unload_textdomain()` to define whether a text domain can be loaded just-in-time again. This is used by `WP_Locale_Switcher::load_translations()`.
* Extends `_load_textdomain_just_in_time()` to also support text domains of plugins and themes with custom language directories.
* Fixes the incorrect `test_plugin_translation_after_switching_locale_twice()` test which should have caught this issue earlier.
* Adds a new test plugin and theme to test the loading of translations with a custom language directory.
* Deprecates the now unused and private `_get_path_to_translation()` and `_get_path_to_translation_from_lang_dir()` functions.

Introduces new `determine_locale()` function for deciding the proper locale to use for a response. Default value is `get_user_locale()` in the admin, and `get_locale()` on the frontend. Because REST API requests are considered frontend requests, `?_locale=user` can be used to render the response in the user's locale.
Also updates `wp-login.php?wp_lang` implementation to benefit from this abstraction.

"Install" is not a noun, and while it might be acceptable to use the verb as a noun, it is not correct. Using the correct
noun, "installation", increases clarity, especially for non-native English speakers.
This change fixes the usage in user-facing text and in developer documentation.

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.

Previously, if no translation files exist for a text domain, `_load_textdomain_just_in_time()` went through the entire process each time it was called. This results in an increased call to `get_locale()` and its `locale` filter.
This change splits the logic into `_get_path_to_translation()` and `_get_path_to_translation_from_lang_dir()`. The former, which is used by `_load_textdomain_just_in_time()`, caches the result of the latter. It also removes some non-working code from `WP_Locale_Switcher::load_translations()`.

With the introduction of user-specific languages in [38705] it's necessary to be able to switch translations on the fly. For example emails should be sent in the language of the recipient and not the one of the current user.
This introduces a new `WP_Locale_Switcher` class which is used for switching locales and translations. It holds the stack of locales whenever `switch_to_locale( $locale )` is called. With `restore_previous_locale()` you can restore the previous locale. `restore_current_locale()` empties the stack and sets the locale back to the initial value.
`switch_to_locale()` is added to most of core's email functions, either with the value of `get_locale()` (site language) or `get_user_locale()` (user language with fallback to site language).
