The new meta capabilities are called `install_languages` and `update_languages`. Prior to this change, there were no proper capability checks applied. Instead only the filesystem and related constants were checked, and for actual permissions a rather vague fallback was used where a user needed to have at least one of the other updating capabilities. In addition to being generally more verbose, the new capabilities make it possible for example to allow a user to update languages, but nothing else. By default they fall back to the original way of how they were handled.

`setup_network` is a new meta capability that brings more granular control over the permissions to setup a multisite environment. In a non-multisite environment it falls back to `manage_options` while in a multisite it falls back to `manage_network_options`. The introduction of this capability furthermore allows replacing an `is_super_admin()` check.

Also use 'back-compat' in some inline comments where backward compatibility is the subject and shorthand feels more natural.
Note: 'backwards compatibility/compatibile' can also be considered correct, though it's primary seen in regular use in British English.

Using the same `$post_new_file` global variable name in `wp-admin/menu.php` in [33723] was unintentional, but we're already unsetting other variables that are in global scope so we can just unset this one as well. Someday the admin menu won't be a big pile of sad and cryptic globals. Maybe.

If you want to use a Dashicon before an element you can use the class because it will not change the elements content styling. With that you don't need to copy the entire `.dashicons` styling to your :before styling anymore.
To demonstrate this change, Admin Menu now uses Dashicons classes directly.
And it fixes a glitch in IE.

Both of these icons can be colored to match the color scheme, including hover states.
Both are accepted for register_post_type()'s menu_icon argument, and also add_menu_page()'s $icon_url argument.
To use a Dashicon, pass the name of the helper class, e.g. 'dashicons-piechart'.
To use an SVG, pass a valid data URI string starting with 'data:image/svg+xml;base64,'.

* Attachments now go through post.php, edit_post(), the like, and have show_ui set to true.
* Taxonomies attached to the media library now appear in the admin menu (if show_ui).
* Editing, cropping, uploading, etc. is still very rough, but mostly functional.
API-wise:
* New function: get_taxonomies_for_attachments(). Like get_taxonomies(), for taxonomies specifically registered against attachments.
* Brings taxonomy support from the posts list table to the media list table. Expect them to converge soon.
* wp_insert_attachment() now handles taxonomies like wp_insert_post(). Also expect them to converge soon.
* New edit_form_after_title hook.

When blog_public only has two values (as judged by whether the blog_privacy_selector action is used), convert from radio buttons to a checkbox, and rename from 'Site Visibility' to a more specific 'Search Engine Visibility'.
The text and implementation may change a bit. see #16416.
