The Gutenberg plugin will not be deactivated on sites upgrading to WordPress 5.1. This deprecates the `upgrade_500_was_gutenberg_active` option and the `upgrade_500()` function as they are no longer required.

Due to the high number of follow-up tickets and associated security concerns, it was decided to reschedule the fatal error recovery feature for WordPress 5.2, in order to address these issues properly. The feature will continue to be developed, with iterations being merged into trunk early in the 5.2 release cycle.

The `WP_Shutdown_Handler` name plus related function names were premature when originally committed, as there can be multiple shutdown handlers in PHP, and WordPress makes use of that feature. This changeset modifies the name to a more appropriate `WP_Fatal_Error_Handler`, and related to that changes the following names:
* The drop-in to override the handler is now called `fatal-error-handler.php`.
* The internal function `wp_register_premature_shutdown_handler` is now called `wp_register_fatal_error_handler()`.
In addition to these naming changes, a new constant `WP_DISABLE_FATAL_ERROR_HANDLER` is introduced that can be set in `wp-config.php` to entirely disable the fatal error handler. That constant's value is and should be accessed indirectly via a new `wp_is_fatal_error_handler_enabled()` function and is filterable via a new `wp_fatal_error_handler_enabled` hook. Note that disabling the fatal error handler will skip the new functionality entirely, including the potentially used `fatal-error-handler.php` drop-in.
The new set of constant, filter and function provide for an easier-to-use mechanism to disable the fatal error handler altogether, rather than requiring developers to implement a drop-in for purely that purpose.

When merging, [44244] and [44260] were committed to trunk the opposite way that they were committed to the 5.0 branch. They were originally committed in [43885] and [43861], respectively.
Due to this switch, a change in how the Custom Fields meta box was registered wasn't merged from the 5.0 branch, causing it to not be registered correctly in trunk.

On the Privacy Policy Guide, there is currently a ‘Copy’ button below each section of suggested text. It is unclear what copy means without more context. It could be assumed, for instance, that the suggested text is copied to a new page.
This changes the button text to read `Copy this section to clipboard` to more clearly inform the user what is copied and how.

This changeset uses the API functions introduced in [44476] to link to the resource about updating PHP when highlighting a plugin's required PHP version is not met. It furthermore expands them, introducing a new `wp_update_php_annotation()` function that prints the markup to indicate that the default URL has been altered by the web host, allowing it to be reused universally.
Furthermore, this changeset adds missing `update_php` capability checks before displaying the information about updating PHP.

In [41746], `wp_get_media_creation_timestamp()` was introduced to read the created timestamp for videos from `getID3` in meta whenever possible. This information is useful separately from the dates on the file itself.
This adds the same support audio files by utilizing `wp_get_media_creation_timestamp()` in `wp_read_audio_metadata()`.

This changeset introduces a `WP_Shutdown_Handler` class that detects fatal errors and which extension (plugin or theme) causes them. Such an error is then recorded, and an error message is displayed. Subsequently, in certain protected areas, for example the admin, the broken extension will be paused, ensuring that the website is still usable in the respective area. The major benefit is that this mechanism allows site owners to still log in to their website, to fix the problem by either disabling the extension or solving the bug and then resuming the extension.
Extensions are only paused in certain designated areas. The frontend for example stays unaffected, as it is impossible to know what pausing the extension would cause to be missing, so it might be preferrable to clearly see that the website is temporarily not accessible instead.
The fatal error recovery is especially important in scope of encouraging the switch to a maintained PHP version, as not necessarily every WordPress extension is compatible with all PHP versions. If problems occur now, non-technical site owners that do not have immediate access to the codebase are not locked out of their site and can at least temporarily solve the problem quickly.
Websites that have custom requirements in that regard can implement their own shutdown handler by adding a `shutdown-handler.php` drop-in that returns the handler instance to use, which must be based on a class that inherits `WP_Shutdown_Handler`. That handler will then be used in place of the default one.
Websites that would like to modify specifically the error template displayed in the frontend can add a `php-error.php` drop-in that works similarly to the existing `db-error.php` drop-in.

After [42832], [42891] and [43006], this changeset refines the core notice informing about an outdated PHP version:
* The link to the Update PHP information page can now be adjusted using either a `WP_UPDATE_PHP_URL` environment variable, or a new `wp_update_php_url` filter.
* If that URL is different from the default one that points to https://wordpress.org/support/update-php/ or its localized equivalent, a note indicates that the linked resource has not been provided by WordPress itself, and the default URL is still linked to as an additional resource.
* The URL for the default information page has been updated to use the slug `update-php` instead of `upgrade-php`.
* `@since` annotations have been updated.
Going forward, admin areas that display information related to the PHP version should use the new function `wp_get_update_php_url()`.
