While using reserved PHP keywords as parameter name labels is allowed, in the context of function calls using named parameters in PHP 8.0+, this will easily lead to confusion. To avoid that, it is recommended not to use reserved keywords as function parameter names.
This commit renames the `$string` parameter to `$input_string` in:
* `POMO_Reader::substr()`
* `POMO_Reader::strlen()`
* `POMO_Reader::str_split()`

Dynamic (non-explicitly declared) properties are deprecated as of PHP 8.2 and are expected to become a fatal error in PHP 9.0.
There are a number of ways to mitigate this:
* If it is an accidental typo for a declared property: fix the typo.
* For known properties: declare them on the class.
* For unknown properties: add the magic `__get()`, `__set()`, et al. methods to the class or let the class extend `stdClass` which has highly optimized versions of these magic methods built in.
* For unknown ''use'' of dynamic properties, the `#[AllowDynamicProperties]` attribute can be added to the class. The attribute will automatically be inherited by child classes.
Trac ticket #56034 is open to investigate and handle the third and fourth type of situations, however it has become clear this will need more time and will not be ready in time for WP 6.1.
To reduce “noise” in the meantime, both in the error logs of WP users moving onto PHP 8.2, in the test run logs of WP itself, in test runs of plugins and themes, as well as to prevent duplicate tickets from being opened for the same issue, this commit adds the `#[AllowDynamicProperties]` attribute to all “parent” classes in WP.
The logic used for this commit is as follows:
* If a class already has the attribute: no action needed.
* If a class does not `extend`: add the attribute.
* If a class does `extend`:
- If it extends `stdClass`: no action needed (as `stdClass` supports dynamic properties).
- If it extends a PHP native class: add the attribute.
- If it extends a class from one of WP's external dependencies: add the attribute.
* In all other cases: no action — the attribute should not be needed as child classes inherit from the parent.
Whether or not a class contains magic methods has not been taken into account, as a review of the currently existing magic methods has shown that those are generally not sturdy enough and often even set dynamic properties (which they should not). See the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDZWepDQQVE live stream from August 16, 2022] for more details.
This commit only affects classes in the `src` directory of WordPress core.
* Tests should not get this attribute, but should be fixed to not use dynamic properties instead. Patches for this are already being committed under ticket #56033.
* While a number bundled themes (2014, 2019, 2020, 2021) contain classes, they are not a part of this commit and may be updated separately.

In this case, the `$is_overloaded` property and the `$_f` property fall in the “known property” category. In both cases, these are being set in the `__construct()` method of the class they apply to.
The `$_post` property appears to be a typo however. The `$_post` property looks to be unused, while there is an undeclared integer `$_pos` (“position”) property, which is used throughout the class and used by the child classes.

`stream_get_contents()` is faster than `fread()`, because the PHP core can decide how to best read the remaining file; it could decide to issue just one `read()` call or `mmap()` the file first.
Per the PHP manual, `file_get_contents()` or `stream_get_contents()` is the preferred way to read the contents of a file into a string. It will use memory mapping techniques if supported by the OS to enhance performance.

This commit adds the `public` visibility keyword to each method which did not have an explicit visibility keyword.
Why `public`?
With no visibility previously declared, these methods are implicitly `public` and available for use. Changing them to anything else would be a backwards-compatibility break.

This is a final pass to fix PHP compatibiilty issues in the codebase with code changes or adding `phpcs:ignore` comments.
With this change, all PHP compatibility warnings and errors without specific tickets have been addressed (see #49810 and #41750).

PHP7 is deprecating PHP4 style constructors, so we need to modify our code to have _construct methods that fire before the named PHP4 style constructors. The PHP4 style constructors will call the PHP5 style constructor in case it is being called directly (usually via parent::METHOD).
This modifies external libraries to add PHP5 style constructors, but doesn't add a notice for when they are used. In WordPress core code, PHP4 style constructors are being given a call to _deprecated_constructor. To the PHP4 style constructor I say "I know that I can't take no more | It ain't no lie | I wanna see you out that door | Baby, bye, bye, bye..."
