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.

Fixes bug where an invalid Last-Modified value would be returned in feed requests for sites that had 0 items to return. Comment or post feeds will now return the current timestamp as the Last-Modified header value. Example: a request for the comments feed for a site without any comments.
Replaced use of the local static variable `$cache_lastcommentmodified` to store the modified date in `get_lastcommentmodified()` with the Object Cache API. The `get_lastcommentmodified()` function returns early if there is a cached value and returns `false` if there where no comments found. Introduced `_clear_modified_cache_on_transition_comment_status()` to flush the `lastcommentmodified` cache key when a comment enters or leaves approval status. In `get_lastpostmodified()` return early if there is a cached value and return `false` if there are no posts found.

One thing fairly common to the cache groups is a block of code to look to see when the cache was last changed, and if there isn't one, to set it for the current microtime(). It appears in 8 different places in core. This adds a new helper `wp_cache_get_last_changed` to DRY things up a bit.
Since `wp-includes/cache.php` isn't guaranteed to be loaded, this new function is in `wp-includes/functions.php`

REST API endpoints for your WordPress content. These endpoints provide machine-readable external access to your WordPress site with a clear, standards-driven interface, allowing new and innovative apps for interacting with your site. These endpoints support all of the following:
- Posts: Read and write access to all post data, for all types of post-based data, including pages and media.
- Comments: Read and write access to all comment data. This includes pingbacks and trackbacks.
- Terms: Read and write access to all term data.
- Users: Read and write access to all user data. This includes public access to some data for post authors.
- Meta: Read and write access to metadata for posts, comments, terms, and users, on an opt-in basis from plugins.
- Settings: Read and write access to settings, on an opt-in basis from plugins and core. This enables API management of key site content values that are technically stored in options, such as site title and byline.
Love your REST API, WordPress! The infrastructure says, "Let's do lunch!" but the content API endpoints say, "You're paying!"

* Custom CSS is associated with a given theme and is displayed in an inline `style` element at the `wp_head` hook after the `wp_print_styles` is called so that it overrides any enqueued stylesheets.
* A `wp_get_custom_css()` function is used for accessing the CSS associated with the current theme (or another theme) and a `wp_get_custom_css` filter for manipulating it.
* CSS is managed in customizer via a new "Additional CSS" section with a single `textarea` control.
* `WP_Customize_Section::$description_hidden` is introduced for hiding extended descriptions in customizer sections behind a help toggle as done with panels.
* CSS is stored in a `custom_css` post type with the theme (stylesheet) slug as the `post_name`.
* `WP_Customize_Custom_CSS_Setting` is introduced to handle validation of CSS, previewing, and persisting the CSS to the `custom_css` post type.
* The `custom_css` setting is tied to a new `unfiltered_css` capability which maps to `unfiltered_html` by default.
* Escaping the message in the notification template is removed to allow markup (`code` tags) to be rendered.

Previously, changing the post thumbnail of a published post in the edit screen
would immediately apply the change, rather than waiting for the post to be
saved before applying the update. This could lead to someone unintentionally
editing the post thumbnail on a published post, and made it impossible to
preview changes to post thumbnails on published posts before saving the change.
This introduces a new Ajax handler, `wp_ajax_get_post_thumbnail_html()` to
retrieve the HTML for the post thumbnail meta box without updating the post
meta value for `_thumbnail_id`. It also allows post thumbnail changes to be
previewed by passing the `_thumbnail_id` as a query variable to the preview
screen and adding a new filter, `_wp_preview_post_thumbnail_filter()`, which
gets applied to `get_post_metadata` during the post preview process.
Props flixos90.

This adds three new functions for getting/displaying attachment captions:
* `wp_get_attachment_caption` - Retrieves a caption for a specific attachment.
* `get_the_post_thumbnail_caption()` - Returns the post thumbnail caption.
* `the_post_thumbnail_caption()` - Displays the post thumbnail caption.
These are helpful for displaying a caption associated with an image directly
in a template, rather than using the caption shortcode.
This also introduces two new filters:
* `wp_get_attachment_caption` - Filters the value of `wp_get_attachment_caption()`.
* `the_post_thumbnail_caption` - Filters the display of the post thumbnail caption.
`the_post_thumbnail_caption()` is automatically filtered by `wptexturize()`,
`convert_smilies()`, and `convert_chars()` in `wp-includes/default-filters.php`.

Known functions, classes, and methods are now auto-linked in Code Reference pages following #meta1483.
Note: Hook references are still linked via inline `@see` tags due to the unlikelihood of reliably matching for known hooks based on a RegEx pattern.

Percent signs are reserved characters in URIs. As such, it was impossible for
plugins to route requests to trashed posts, as happens in bbPress. The new
`__trashed` suffix should be sufficiently unique.
Also adds a test that demonstrates that the `__trashed` suffix can be
appended to slugs that contain the suffix somewhere other than the end of
the string.
