Boone Gorges 571e14f897 More performance improvements to metadata lazyloading.
Comment and term meta lazyloading for `WP_Query` loops, introduced in 4.4,
depended on filter callback methods belonging to `WP_Query` objects. This meant
storing `WP_Query` objects in the `$wp_filter` global (via `add_filter()`),
requiring that PHP retain the objects in memory, even when the local variables
would typically be expunged during normal garbage collection. In cases where a
large number of `WP_Query` objects were instantiated on a single pageload,
and/or where the contents of the `WP_Query` objects were quite large, serious
performance issues could result.

We skirt this problem by moving metadata lazyloading out of `WP_Query`. The
new `WP_Metadata_Lazyloader` class acts as a lazyload queue. Query instances
register items whose metadata should be lazyloaded - such as post terms, or
comments - and a `WP_Metadata_Lazyloader` method will intercept comment and
term meta requests to perform the cache priming. Since `WP_Metadata_Lazyloader`
instances are far smaller than `WP_Query` (containing only object IDs), and
clean up after themselves far better than the previous `WP_Query` methods (bp
only running their callbacks a single time for a given set of queued objects),
the resource use is decreased dramatically.

See [36525] for an earlier step in this direction.

/**
* Lazyloader for object metadata.
*
* When loading many objects of a given type, such as posts in a WP_Query loop, it often makes
* sense to prime various metadata caches at the beginning of the loop. This means fetching all
* relevant metadata with a single database query, a technique that has the potential to improve
* performance dramatically in some cases.
*
* In cases where the given metadata may not even be used in the loop, we can improve performance
* even more by only priming the metadata cache for affected items the first time a piece of metadata
* is requested - ie, by lazyloading it. So, for example, comment meta may not be loaded into the
* cache in the comments section of a post until the first time get_comment_meta() is called in the
* context of the comment loop.
*
* WP uses the WP_Metadata_Lazyloader class to queue objects for metadata cache priming. The class
* then detects the relevant get_*_meta() function call, and queries the metadata of all queued objects.
*
* Do not access this class directly. Use the wp_metadata_lazyloader() function.
