- Enable arranging only when the Screen Options tab is open.
- Prevent accidental/unintended dragging. Seen it happen mostly on laptops when using the mousepad/trackpad.
- Improve discoverability and usefulness by always showing the "drop zones" outline when postboxes are draggable/arrangeable.
- Add some (brief) explanation to the Screen Options tab helping the user understand what options are available and how to change them. This is especially helpful for screen reader users to give an idea how to use the screen options and what to expect.
- Fix/enhance some of the code in `postbox.js` and make it coding standards compliant.

So far, it has been possible to rearrange into a new order the post boxes (also known as "widgets" on the Dashboard and "meta boxes" on the Edit post page) only by using a pointing device, for example a mouse.
This change adds new controls and functionality to allow the boxes to be rearranged also with the keyboard. Additionally, audible messages are sent to the admin ARIA live region to notify screen reader users of the reorder action result.

Noteable changes:
- The `magic_quotes_runtime` and `magic_quotes_sybase` settings were removed in PHP 5.4, so no longer need to be set.
- Some functions that use external libraries can generate errors that can't be tested for, so are globally allowed to silence errors.
- Quite a few functions would cause errors if `safe_mode` was set. This setting was removed in PHP 5.4.
- Only a handful of `header()` calls needed corresponding `headers_sent()` checks for unit tests to pass, but more may need to be added as the nightlies builds are tested.

When meta boxes are registered, they can use the `__back_compat_meta_box` and `__block_editor_compatible_meta_box` flags, to show whether this registration just exists for if the classic editor is loaded, and whether this meta box is compatible with the block editor.
When a meta box marks itself as incompatible with the block editor, and `WP_DEBUG` is enabled, a warning will show inside that meta box in the classic editor.
As all core meta boxes have been recreated in the block editor, they can be marked with the `__back_compat_meta_box` flag.

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.

In order to get the best result when running `phpcbf` across the codebase, there are some manual tweaks we need to make.
These fall into three categories:
- Fixing incorrectly indented code which has flow-on effects when auto-fixing.
- Tweaking the layout of inline PHP inside HTML tags.
- Moving more complex inline PHP inside HTML tags, to execute earlier.

At the heart of the matter, the `$menu_slug` parameter in `add_menu_page()` and `add_submenu_page()` is not sanitized with `sanitize_key()`. When the screen object is later built for the admin page, the screen ID is derived from that `$menu_slug` value, though passed through `sanitize_key()`, which can produce unexpected results in comparison check.
Changing the sanitization code to provide actual parity is out of the question at this juncture, so updating the docs to describe how to avoid this edge case is the next best option.

WordPress has supported custom page templates for over 12 years, allowing developers to create various layouts for specific pages.
While this feature is very helpful, it has always been limited to the 'page' post type and not was not available to other post types.
By opening up the page template functionality to all post types, we continue to improve the template hierarchy's flexibility.
In addition to the `Template Name` file header, the post types supported by a template can be specified using `Template Post Type: post, foo, bar`.
When at least one template exists for a post type, the 'Post Attributes' meta box will be displayed in the back end, without the need to add post type support for `'page-attributes'`. 'Post Attributes' can be customized per post type using the `'attributes'` label when registering a post type.

By enabling the user to select their preferred locale when editing the profile, we allow for greater personalization of the WordPress admin and therefore a better user experience.
The back end will be displayed in the user's individual locale while the locale used on the front end equals the one set for the whole site. If the user didn't specify a locale, the site's locale will be used as a fallback. The new `locale` property of the `WP_User` class can be used to retrieve the user's locale setting.
