Since WordPress 6.5, the minimum supported version of MySQL and MariaDB is 5.5.5. This means all supported database servers now support the `utf8mb4` character set and therefore the conditional logic for this is no longer necessary.

`str_starts_with()` and `str_ends_with()` were introduced in PHP 8.0 to perform a case-sensitive check indicating if the string to search in (haystack) begins or ends with the given substring (needle).
WordPress core includes a polyfill for these functions on PHP < 8.0 as of WordPress 5.9.
This commit uses `str_starts_with()` and `str_ends_with()` in core files where appropriate:
* `$needle === substr( $string, 0, $length )`, where `$length` is the length of `$needle`, is replaced with `str_starts_with( $haystack, $needle )`.
* `$needle === substr( $string, $offset )`, where `$offset` is negative and the absolute value of `$offset` is the length of `$needle`, is replaced with `str_ends_with( $haystack, $needle )`.
This aims to make the code more readable and consistent, as well as better aligned with modern development practices.

During install, the user is prompted for database connection settings. Inputs for the database name, username, and password will most likely be changed from the examples given, but these example values are presented as the input's `value` property. This required the user to clear the current value before entering their own.
This change moves the example values for these fields to the `placeholder` property.

There are some table prefixes (for example, `7e1_`), which the database will try and parse as values unless they are quoted in backticks. Because not everyone remembers to quote their table names, WordPress discourages use of such prefixes during setup.
To test if the table prefix is valid, WordPress executes a query deliberately trying to generate an error:
> `Unknown column 'wp_' in 'field list'`
which means the prefix is safe to use, as the database was not able to parse it as a value.
Previously, this error would not be displayed to the user in a typical configuration, but would be logged on the server via `wpdb::print_error()`, and in some cases could block the installation.
This commit makes sure the error is still checked to display a proper message in case the prefix needs to be edited, but otherwise is silently discarded instead of being logged.

This changeset improves admin forms accessibility by adding labels to the following read-only form fields:
- Network setup screen: new visible label to the four textareas for code users need to paste into their wp-config file and the server configuration file (web.config or .htaccess).
- `setup-config.php`: new visible label to one textarea for code to include in the `wp-config` file manually.
- Admin toolbar: adds an `arial-label` attribute to the old "shortlink" feature (not used anymore but still activable by plugins).

Prevent a `TypeError` from occurring during installation if `wp-config.php` is not writable. In PHP 8.0 this can cause a fatal error, in earlier versions of PHP a warning would be thrown.

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`

* Add missing translator comments.
* Fix placement of some translator comments. Translator comments should be on the line directly above the line containing the translation function call for optimal compatibility with various `.pot` file generation tools. The CS auto-fixing, which changed some inconsistent function calls to multi-line function calls, is part of the reason why this was no longer the case for a select group of translator comments.
Includes minor code layout fixes.
Polyglots, rejoice! All WordPress core files now have translator comments for all strings with placeholders!

- adds the CSS class `class="td-full"` to table rows spanning to multiple cells
- adds explicit `scope="row"` attribute to the table headers in `options-permalink.php`: this table is better communicated as data table
- uses consistent label association in the "Privacy Settings" page
- in the installation page "Set up your database connection": associates descriptions to their inout fields using `aria-describedby`

Adds `role="presentation"` to the `<table>` elements used for layout purposes.
Ideally, HTML tables should be used for tabular data. When tables are used for layout purposes, it's important to remove any native semantics so that assistive technologies can correctly announce the table content in a linearized fashion.

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.
