With all known unit test failures now addressed, WordPress 6.1 aims to support PHP 8.1 and 8.2 as much as possible.
While full compatibility with PHP 8.1 and 8.2 is still a work in progress, this commit aims to actively prevent new PHP issues from being introduced in WordPress core.
All remaining known issues are deprecation notices. Please note, a deprecation notice is not an error, but rather an indicator of where additional work is needed for compatibility before PHP 9 (i.e. when the notices become fatal errors). With a deprecation notice, the PHP code will continue to work and nothing is broken.

This affects the following parameters subsequently passed to `wp_new_comment()`:
* `comment_author`
* `comment_author_email`
* `comment_author_url`
* `comment_content`
The default values for these parameters were previously set to `null`, causing PHP 8.1 "null to non-nullable" deprecation notices when running sanitization filters on them via `wp_filter_comment()`.
While the deprecation notices were temporarily silenced in the unit test suite, that caused an unexpected issue in a test for [source:tags/6.0.2/tests/phpunit/tests/comment-submission.php#L202 submitting a comment to a password protected post], where the `$_COOKIE[ 'wp-postpass_' . COOKIEHASH ]` value was no longer unset, as the test stopped any further execution once the deprecation notice was triggered.
Due to how WordPress handles password protected posts, once that value is set, it affects all posts protected with the same password, so this resulted in unintentionally affecting [source:tags/6.0.2/tests/phpunit/tests/rest-api/rest-posts-controller.php#L1866 another test] which happened to use the same password.
These values are all documented to be a string in various related filters, and core also expects them to be a string, so there is no reason for these defaults to be set to `null`. Setting them to an empty string instead resolves the issues.
This commit includes:
* Setting the defaults in `wp_handle_comment_submission()` to an empty string.
* Adding a dedicated unit test to verify the type of these default values.
* Removing the deprecation notice silencing as no longer needed.

As of [35186] and [51568], there are two sets of methods used for setup/teardown in the test suite before and after a test class is run:
* `set_up_before_class()` / `tear_down_after_class()`
* `wpSetUpBeforeClass()` / `wpTearDownAfterClass()`. (Note the `wp` prefix, these are WordPress' own methods and are not the same as the native PHPUnit `setUpBeforeClass()` / `tearDownAfterClass()` methods.)
The main difference is that `wpSetUpBeforeClass()` receives the `$factory` argument for ease of use, and both `wpSetUpBeforeClass()` and `wpTearDownAfterClass()` don't need to call `self::commit_transaction()`.
Many tests use the `wpTearDownAfterClass()` method to clean up posts, users, roles, etc. created via `wpSetUpBeforeClass()`. However, due to [source:tags/6.0/tests/phpunit/includes/abstract-testcase.php?marks=88-95#L82 how the method was previously called], this cleanup happened after all data is **already deleted** from the database.
This could cause some confusion when refactoring tests. For example:
{{{
public static function wpTearDownAfterClass() {
$GLOBALS['_wp_additional_image_sizes'] = self::$_sizes;
}
public static function tear_down_after_class() {
wp_delete_attachment( self::$large_id, true );
parent::tear_down_after_class();
}
}}}
At a glance, it seems like these two methods can be combined:
{{{
public static function wpTearDownAfterClass() {
wp_delete_attachment( self::$large_id, true );
$GLOBALS['_wp_additional_image_sizes'] = self::$_sizes;
}
}}}
However, that would not work as expected: by the time `wp_delete_attachment()` runs, the attachment ID is no longer in the database, so it returns early, leaving some files in the `uploads` directory.
By calling `wpTearDownAfterClass()` in `WP_UnitTestCase_Base::tear_down_after_class()` before deleting all data, instead of after, we ensure that both of these methods have access to the same data and can be used interchangeably to perform cleanup as necessary.
Additionally, this commit moves the calls to parent methods in `WP_UnitTestCase_Base`:
* `parent::set_up_before_class()` to be the first thing called in `::set_up_before_class()`
* `parent::tear_down_after_class()` to be the last thing called in `::tear_down_after_class()`
This does not have any effect in practice, but brings consistency with how these methods are called in the test suite.

These three tests for `wp_dashboard_recent_drafts()` would run into a PHP 8.1 "passing null to non-nullable" deprecation for the call to `ltrim()` when the result of `get_edit_post_link()` is passed to `esc_url()`.
Setting a deprecation expectation would not solve this as the returned value would still not match the expected value(s).
The recent drafts list is only displayed on the Dashboard screen for users with the `edit_posts` capability. By setting the current user to Editor, the prerequisites for `wp_dashboard_recent_drafts()` are met, which means the deprecation notice is avoided and the assertions will succeed.
This commit addresses a few errors in the test suite along the lines of:

As per the PHP manual:
> If the `component` parameter is omitted, an associative array is returned.
> If the `component` parameter is specified, `parse_url()` returns a string (or an int, in the case of `PHP_URL_PORT`) instead of an array. If the requested component doesn't exist within the given URL, `null` will be returned.
Reference: [https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php#refsect1-function.parse-url-returnvalues PHP Manual: parse_url(): Return Values]
In this case, `parse_url()` is called with `PHP_URL_HOST` as `$component`, which returns `null` if the URL only has a path. The return value of `parse_url()` was then passed to `str_replace()`, leading to a notice on PHP 8.1:
{{{
str_replace(): Passing null to parameter #3 ($subject) of type array|string is deprecated
}}}
Adding validation for the return type value of `parse_url()` prevents that.
This commit addresses a few errors in the test suite along the lines of:

This commit aims to fix errors caused by incorrect usage of the `strncmp()` function inside the `WP_Theme_JSON::get_property_value()` method on PHP 8.1 and above.
Some history of the affected code:
* [50973] introduced the `WP_Theme_JSON::get_property_value()` method.
* [54162] removed the `$default` parameter from the `_wp_array_get()` call in the method.
With the latter change, the default value that is returned if the path does not exist within the array, or if `$array` or `$path` are not arrays, became `null` instead of an empty string. Since `null` would then be unintentionally passed to the `strncmp()` function further in the code, this caused ~35 errors in the test suite along the lines of:
{{{

This commit includes:

* Adding an early return if the value is an empty string or `null`.
* Adding a dedicated unit test to ensure that the method returns a string for invalid paths or `null` values.

The `$path` parameter of some script translation functions had a default value of `null`, even though the parameter is documented as a string.
This commit corrects the default value for `$path` in:
* `WP_Dependency::set_translations()`
* `WP_Scripts::set_translations()`
* `wp_set_script_translations()`
Additionally, this commit removes an `is_string()` check for `$path` in `load_script_textdomain()`. Now that the default value for `$path` in that function has also been corrected to an empty string instead of `null`, that check is no longer necessary, as it would ''hide'' an error which should be ''fixed'' (at the source of the problem) instead.

The `$path` parameter of `load_script_textdomain()` had a default value of `null`, but would be passed onto the `untrailingslashit()` function without any input validation, even though the latter explicitly only expects/supports a string input.
This commit changes the default value for `$path` to an empty string, and adds an `is_string()` check before passing the value to `untrailingslashit()` to fix the issue at the point where the invalid input is incorrectly (not) validated.
Note: Changing the `untrailingslashit()` function is outside the scope of this commit.
Includes:
* Adding a dedicated unit test for this issue.
* Correcting the default value for `$path` from `null` to an empty string in a few related methods and functions:
* `WP_Dependency::set_translations()`
* `WP_Scripts::set_translations()`
* `wp_set_script_translations()`
* `load_script_textdomain()`
This fix also allows to remove a couple of calls to `expectDeprecation()` in unrelated tests.

When calling `register_rest_route()`, the `args` parameter for a route should be an array of arrays. However, some plugins/themes have passed an array of strings or key-value pairs which produces a PHP warning when `array_intersect_key` is used to filter the array keys based on an allowed list of schema keywords.
This change adds a check of the `args` parameter to ensure it's an array of arrays, presenting a `_doing_it_wrong` if any element of `args` is not an array and restructuring to an array of arrays. This change also adds a unit test for the incorrect usage described above, expecting that a `_doing_it_wrong` is produced.

After discussions with the Editor Tech leads for 6.1(@bernhard-reiter, @cbravobernal, and @ndiego) and additional guidance from @hellofromtonya, the decision has been made to exclude [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/43862 Gutenberg PR #43862] from the pre-Beta 2 Gutenberg sync PR and revert [54280]. Why? [54280] added the feature's PHP code, but the JS package updates were not included before feature freeze(Beta 1), meaning the feature was incomplete. As the PHP code does not work without the JS package update, the feature is incomplete and missed the feature freeze deadline.
Leaving the PHP code was discussed. However, there is a risk of it needing to change which could complicate backwards compatibility in 6.2 when the feature is eventually introduced.

The `register_block_style_handle()` function runs ~200 times on each page load. Each time it runs, we call `get_theme_file_path()` and then run it through `wp_normalize_path()`.
`get_theme_file_path()` calls a few other functions: `get_stylesheet_directory()`, `get_stylesheet()`, `get_option()`, and there's a bunch of filters that run on each iteration of that, without ever changing.
By caching the value in a static variable, we can avoid ~200 calls on many functions and filters, improving performance.

[54155] broke loading of style.css files, namely it was enqueuing style.css files that don't exist on the frontend, which lead to 404 HTTO errors. All these style.css files don't exist for core blocks as they should be registered style handlers without a file path.
Follow-up to [54155].

Add strings for use in future maintenance/security releases to indicate the security support status of the version of WordPress.
Two strings are introduced:
* indicating the version of WordPress is not receiving security updates, and,
* indicating the version of WordPress will shortly stop receiving security updates.
This change does not make use of the strings, the purpose is to make them available to translators prior to dropping support of selected versions of WordPress.

The `wp_xmlrpc_server::_insert_post()` method creates a new post via `wp_insert_post()` or updates an existing one via `wp_update_post()`, which subsequently calls `wp_insert_post()`. However, the default/fallback values used in the function were not in line with the default/fallback values used in the `wp_insert_post()` function.
The `wp_insert_post()` function does a `wp_parse_args()` (array merge) of the received arguments with the defaults. If any of the received arguments are `null`, this would overwrite the default value, as seen in [https://3v4l.org/bfVlv array_merge() example], and lead to "passing null to non-nullable" deprecation notices on PHP 8.1 for certain arguments.
Unfortunately, the conditional logic within the `wp_xmlrpc_server::_insert_post()` function itself often uses an `isset()` to trigger certain code blocks, so syncing the defaults with those used in the `wp_insert_post()` function was not an option.
This commit:
* Updates the default/fallback values in the `$defaults` array only for those values where this would not lead to a change in the behavior of the function.
* Adds a safeguard function, filtering out all remaining `null` values from the `$post_data` array before it is passed on to the `wp_insert_post()` or `wp_update_post()` functions. Removing those values is safe as this means that these array keys will now:
* either be set to the default/fallback value as defined in `wp_insert_post()`.
* or not be set and for those values which don't have a default/fallback value in `wp_insert_post()`, the function does an `! empty()` or `isset()` check anyway and those array keys not being defined means that the result of those checks will remain the same.
Includes
* Removing a couple of conditions which are now redundant.
* Removing an `expectDeprecation()` in the `Tests_Date_XMLRPC` test class, which is now no longer needed.
