The `get_core_checksums()` and `wp_version_check()` functions call the PHP native `http_build_query()` function, the second parameter of which is the ''optional'' `$numeric_prefix` parameter which expects a non-nullable `string`.
A parameter being optional, however, does not automatically make it nullable.
As of PHP 8.1, passing `null` to a non-nullable PHP native function will generate a deprecation notice.
In this case, this function call yielded a `http_build_query(): Passing null to parameter #2 ($numeric_prefix) of type string is deprecated` notice.
Changing the `null` to an empty string fixes this without a backward compatibility break.

This allows third-party plugins to avoid accidentally being overwritten with an update of a plugin of a similar name from the WordPress.org Plugin Directory.
Additionally, introduce the `update_plugins_{$hostname}` filter, which third-party plugins can use to offer updates for a given hostname.
If set, the `Update URI` header field should be a URI and have a unique hostname.
Some examples include:
* `https://wordpress.org/plugins/example-plugin/`
* `https://example.com/my-plugin/`
* `my-custom-plugin-name`
`Update URI: false` also works, and unless there is code handling the `false` hostname, the plugin will never get an update notification.
If the header is present, the WordPress.org API will currently only return updates for the plugin if it matches the following format:
* `https://wordpress.org/plugins/{$slug}/`
* `w.org/plugin/{$slug}`
If the header has any other value, the API will not return a result and will ignore the plugin for update purposes.

The `WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE` constant now supports `development` and `branch-development` values.
This makes it possible for sites to opt-in to updating to nightly builds without having to install a plugin.

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`

WPCS 1.0.0 includes a bunch of new auto-fixers, which drops the number of coding standards issues across WordPress significantly. Prior to running the auto-fixers, there were 15,312 issues detected. With this commit, we now drop to 4,769 issues.
This change includes three notable additions:
- Multiline function calls must now put each parameter on a new line.
- Auto-formatting files is now part of the `grunt precommit` script.
- Auto-fixable coding standards issues will now cause Travis failures.
Fixes#44600.

This code branch is responsible for running all autoupdates, including plugins and themes - which should run regardless of if there's a core autoupdate available.
This revert does not revert the `$timeout` changes, as these should still use cached data if it's available.
Ideally this should be decoupled from the core update check to allow background updates to operate even when the core update check is disabled or running more often than twice daily.
See #43103.

This change reduces the number of API calls which WordPress makes to api.wordpress.org during release windows.
Previously the background updates would run upon every core update transient refresh, however now they'll only run if there's an update available.
The change also increases the cache period for plugin & theme checks when running via the cron, from never-cache to 2 hours, which should hopefully reduce the number of needless API calls.
Fixes#43103 for trunk.

Calling the `count_users()` function is expensive, regardless of the counting strategy that's used, and it gets
slower the more users there are on a site. In order to speed up the Users screen in the admin area, calling
`count_users()` can be avoided entirely while still displaying the total count for users.
This introduces some new functions:
* `wp_is_large_user_count()`
* `wp_get_active_user_count()`
* `wp_update_active_user_count()`
A corresponding `wp_is_large_user_count` filter is also introduced.

* `wp-admin` and `wp-includes` are scanned for classes to autoload
* Several 3rd-party and Ryan McCue-shaped libraries are excluded when the classmap is generated, see `composer.json`: `autoload.exclude-from-classmap`
* `wp-vendor/autoload_52.php` is included at the top of `wp-settings.php` - no changes need to be made to unit tests to include the autoloader
* An avalanche of `require()` and `require_once()` calls that loaded class files have been removed from the codebase.
The following files have been added to `svn:ignore` - they are not 5.2-compatible and fail during pre-commit:
* src/wp-vendor/autoload.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_real.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_static.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/ClassLoader.php
We favor these files instead:
* src/wp-vendor/autoload_52.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_real_52.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/ClassLoader52.php
When new PHP classes are added to the codebase, simply run `composer install` or `composer update` from the project root to update the autoloader.
The future is now.
