Global terms was a feature from the WordPress MU days where multisite and single site installs used different code bases.
In WordPress 3.0, WordPress MU was merged into one location and the UI [14854] and “on” switch [14880] for global terms were completely removed.
Even before this merge, global terms was bug infested and unreliable. After [14854]/[14880], the feature was no longer maintained and became increasingly broken as taxonomies progressed without it (term splitting and term meta do not work at all). At this point, the feature has not worked in 12+ years and there’s no hope for saving it.
This deprecates the remaining global terms related code and no-ops the functions.
Global terms, you don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.

This aims to improve performance by calling `sanitize_url()` directly, instead of the `esc_url_raw()` wrapper. As of WordPress 6.1, `sanitize_url()` is the recommended function for sanitizing a URL for database or redirect usage.

Partially reverts [48059] as there's no full consensus on the removal of the text prefix. Further actions should be taken to improve consistency and accessibility of the admin notices. Keeps some improvements to the translatable strings from [48059].

For a number of years, most of the WordPress error messages have been prefixed with "Error:". However, these messages appear in a context where it's already clear an error occurred. Whether it's an error, a warning, or any other classification, that's not so relevant for users. The content of the message is the relevant part. The "Error:" prefix doesn't add great value while it does add unnecessary complexity for the message readability.
Also, revises some of these messages to improve clarity and removes HTML from translatable strings.

This avoids the performance overhead of the function call every time `dirname( __FILE__ )` was used instead of `__DIR__`.
This commit also includes:
* Removing unnecessary parentheses from `include`/`require` statements. These are language constructs, not function calls.
* Replacing `include` statements for several files with `require_once`, for consistency:
* `wp-admin/admin-header.php`
* `wp-admin/admin-footer.php`
* `wp-includes/version.php`

This changeset makes the new CRUD API for sites introduced in [43548] usable for real-world sites. A new function `wp_initialize_site()`, which takes care of creating a site's database tables and populating them with initial values, is hooked into the site insertion process that is initiated when calling `wp_insert_site()`. Similarly, a new function `wp_uninitialize_site()`, which takes care of dropping a site's database tables, is hooked into the site deletion process that is initiated when calling `wp_delete_site()`.
A new function `wp_is_site_initialized()` completes the API, allowing to check whether a site is initialized. Since this function always makes a database request in its default behavior, it should be called with caution. Plugins that would like to use site initialization in special ways can leverage a `pre_wp_is_site_initialized` filter to alter that default behavior.
The separate handling of the site's row in the `wp_blogs` database table and the actual site setup allows for more flexibility in controlling whether or how a site's data is set up. For example, a unit test that only checks data from the site's database table row can unhook the site initialization process to improve performance. At the same time, developers consuming the new sites API only need to know about the CRUD functions, since the initialization and uninitialization processes happen internally.
With this changeset, the foundation for a sites REST API endpoint is fully available. The previously recommended functions `wpmu_create_blog()` and `wpmu_delete_blog()` now call the new respective function internally. Further follow-up work to this includes replacing calls to `wpmu_create_blog()` with `wp_insert_site()`, `update_blog_details()` with `wp_update_site()` and `wpmu_delete_blog()` with `wp_delete_blog()` throughout the codebase.
As a side-effect of this work, the `wpmu_new_blog`, `delete_blog`, and `deleted_blog` actions and the `install_blog()` function have been deprecated.

New functions `wp_insert_site( $data )`, `wp_update_site( $id, $data )` and `wp_delete_site( $id )` are introduced to manage site rows in the `wp_blogs` table, forming the new CRUD API together with the existing `get_site()` / `get_sites()`. The new API provides various benefits over the previously existing API, fixing several cache invalidation issues and being hook-driven so that normalization and validation of the passed data can be fully customized.
New hooks introduced as part of this are the actions `wp_insert_site`, `wp_update_site`, `wp_delete_site`, `wp_validate_site_data` and the filter `wp_normalize_site_data`.
At this point, `wp_insert_site()` does not handle setting up the site's database tables, and `wp_delete_site()` does not handle dropping the site's database tables, so the two can not yet be used directly as full replacements of `wpmu_create_blog()` and `wpmu_delete_blog()`. Managing the site's database tables will be added via hooks as part of the follow-up ticket #41333.
The existing functions `wpmu_create_blog()`, `update_blog_details()`, and `wpmu_delete_blog()` make use of the respective new counterpart and will be obsolete once #41333 has been completed.

"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.

`get_network()` falls back to the current network when called without any arguments. Between this and `get_current_network_id()`, we can replace almost all instances of the global `$current_site` and all instances of `get_current_site()`.
This effectively deprecates `get_current_site()`, something that we'll do in a future ticket.
