This changeset introduces a `WP_Shutdown_Handler` class that detects fatal errors and which extension (plugin or theme) causes them. Such an error is then recorded, and an error message is displayed. Subsequently, in certain protected areas, for example the admin, the broken extension will be paused, ensuring that the website is still usable in the respective area. The major benefit is that this mechanism allows site owners to still log in to their website, to fix the problem by either disabling the extension or solving the bug and then resuming the extension.
Extensions are only paused in certain designated areas. The frontend for example stays unaffected, as it is impossible to know what pausing the extension would cause to be missing, so it might be preferrable to clearly see that the website is temporarily not accessible instead.
The fatal error recovery is especially important in scope of encouraging the switch to a maintained PHP version, as not necessarily every WordPress extension is compatible with all PHP versions. If problems occur now, non-technical site owners that do not have immediate access to the codebase are not locked out of their site and can at least temporarily solve the problem quickly.
Websites that have custom requirements in that regard can implement their own shutdown handler by adding a `shutdown-handler.php` drop-in that returns the handler instance to use, which must be based on a class that inherits `WP_Shutdown_Handler`. That handler will then be used in place of the default one.
Websites that would like to modify specifically the error template displayed in the frontend can add a `php-error.php` drop-in that works similarly to the existing `db-error.php` drop-in.

On small screens, list table actions were cramped. This makes it easy to press the wrong action by mistake. The items are now arranged into a grid and given extra room to create a larger tap-target.
The plugins list table was excluded because it's current layout doesn't match the others, and we should add more space to this in a future commit.

For screens wider than 2300px, show 4 colums of search results, as 3 columns looked quite stretched out.
This change also increases the default number of search results from 30 to 36, so that the columns have an even number of results, regardless of whether there are 2, 3, or 4 of them.

In many a strange and curious file of forgotten lore—
While I pondered, blaming Nacin, my notifications suddenly awakened,
As of someone quietly DMing;—DMing me, I can’t ignore.
“’Tis some contributor,” I muttered, “DMing me an idea or four—
Only this and nothing more.”
Ah, distinctly I remember, at WordCamp US, last December;
A mad proposal nearly laid me—down out cold—upon the floor.
Curious, I listened closely;—to a plan I agreed with, mostly—
A way to make our JavaScript—JavaScript which was a chore—
Maintainable, extendable, for the future, is what I saw.
Guten-ready for evermore.
Open here I switch to Slack, when, with many a patch and hack,
In there stepped Omar, a JavaScript developer hardcore;
Pronouncing all the changes fit; ready now to be commit;
“There’s nothing else for us to do,” DMing me, “It’s done!” he swore—
“No longer random guessing at which file need next be explored—
Let’s move on, we’re all aboard.”
Moved all together, grouped and managed, in folders all is packaged,
The code had all been cleaned and tidied, important parts moved to the fore,
“Though this change be useful here,” I said, “it is too large, I fear,
We couldn’t manage such a patch, we’ve done nothing like this before—
Tell me where doth go this change, change to make our codebase soar!”
Quoth Omar, “In WordPress Core.”

- Remove plugins icons from the plugin list table, as there were performance issues loading the icons when the site had lots of plugins.
- Depending on which icons the plugin has uploaded, prefer them in this order: `svg`, `128x128`, `256x256`.
- Improve the style of the fallback icon for plugins that don't have an icon defined.

Unify the theme-browsing and theme-customization experiences by introducing a comprehensive theme browser and installer directly accessible in the customizer. Replaces the customizer theme switcher with a full-screen panel for discovering/browsing and installing themes available on WordPress.org. Themes can now be installed and previewed directly in the customizer without entering the wp-admin context. Also includes an extensible framework for browsing and installing themes from other sources.
Also includes CSS auto-prefixing added via `grunt precommit:css`.

Given the new WordPress browsers support policy, the `screen-reader-text` css
class used in the admin can be updated to use modern CSS and correct syntax. See
https://github.com/wpaccessibility/a11ythemepatterns/blob/master/read-more-links/style.css
Worth noting the `clip` property is deprecated and kept for IE11 and Edge.
- uses `clip-path` for modern browsers
- keeps `clip` for old browsers and update its value to a correct syntax
- resets `clip-path` to `none` where the class is used to dynamically reveal elements
- removes an old rule that made `screen-reader-text` completely invisible in the help tabs `#screen-meta`
- standardizes the rule across CSS files

WordPress no longer supports many old old browsers: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/04/23/target-browser-coverage/
This also removes alot of no longer necessary CSS. It served us well, but we are never getting back together with IE8,9,10.
So, in the (paraphrased) words of Taylor Swift:
I remember when we dropped support the first time
Saying, "This is it, I've had enough, " 'cause like
We hadn't seen many users in a month
When you said you needed flexbox. (What?)
Then you postMessage again and say
"IE8, I miss you and I swear I'm gonna change, trust me."
Remember how that lasted for a day?
I say, "I hate the box model, " we break up, you call me, "I love css-grids."
Ooh, we called it off again last night
But ooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you
We are never ever ever supporting IE 8,9,10,
We are never ever ever supporting IE 8,9,10,
You go talk to EDGE, talk to my FIREFOX, talk to CHROME
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Introduces some consistency in the usage of the button CSS classes, fixes the
focus style for accessibility and responsiveness of the buttons.
- Adds the `button` class to all primary buttons make them responsive
- Removes all `secondary-button` classes and replaces it with button when needed. `button-secondary` shouldn't be used and exists just for backward compatibility reasons
- Replaces classes inside `submit_button()` with a shorthand for some buttons, and use an empty string for the default `button` class. Passing `button` is unnecessary
- Adjusts `get_submit_button()` to remove empty items

When Open Sans was in use, the `300`, `400`, and `600` weights were loaded. `400` is the equivalent of `normal`; however, `bold` is equivalent to `700`, not `600`. With the move to system fonts, we need to be specific rather than relying on the lack of a `700` weight. Not all system fonts include a `600` weight; in those instances, they will use the `bold`/`700` weight.
The WordPress CSS Coding Standards have been updated accordingly.

Rejoice, for your admins will feel more native to your surrounding computing environment and likely load faster, especially when offline, as they no longer have to talk to The Google Overlord.
At the time of introduction in 3.8, there were not good system fonts common to all platforms at the time. In the years since, Windows, Android, OS X, iOS, Firefox OS, and various flavors of Linux have all gotten their own (good) system UI fonts.
There will definitely be visual bugs, mainly around alignment and spacing; these should be documented and reported on the ticket and fixed more atomically so that our current and future selves have a better understanding of what happened and why.
The style remains registered, as it is almost certainly in use by themes and plugins.

[34356] removed the table row specificity on rules for `.site-deleted`, `.site-spammed`, `.site-archived`, and `.site-matured` so that the styles would be properly applied to other elements. Now, the zebra striping rules override these styles on even rows.
We can account for `tr` specific and more generic applications of these classes.

These plugins are only shown to users with the `manage_network_plugins` capability, which is Super Admins by default. This new feature lowers the blood pressure of Super Admins who may browse or search the Plugins listing screen of an individual site, having forgotten that a particular plugin is network-active. Showing inactive network-only plugins here also reduces friction when searching the Plugins listing screen on individual sites.
This change introduces a `show_network_active_plugins` filter which controls whether the network-active plugins and inactive network-only plugins are shown. This can be used to enable this functionality for regular site admininstrators, or, indeed, to disable this functionality for Super Admins.
