Partially reverts [48059] as there's no full consensus on the removal of the text prefix. Further actions should be taken to improve consistency and accessibility of the admin notices. Keeps some improvements to the translatable strings from [48059].

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`

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.

While intended as a playful error message, `Cheatin’ uh?` can be interpreted as insulting or accusatory in an already stressful situation. This replaces Cheatin’ with more meaningful error messages, depending on the error that occurs.

"Install" is not a noun, and while it might be acceptable to use the verb as a noun, it is not correct. Using the correct
noun, "installation", increases clarity, especially for non-native English speakers.

The new meta capabilities are called `install_languages` and `update_languages`. Prior to this change, there were no proper capability checks applied. Instead only the filesystem and related constants were checked, and for actual permissions a rather vague fallback was used where a user needed to have at least one of the other updating capabilities. In addition to being generally more verbose, the new capabilities make it possible for example to allow a user to update languages, but nothing else. By default they fall back to the original way of how they were handled.

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.

The `medium_large_size_w` and `medium_large_size_h` options were added to the
$whitelist_options['media'] in options.php in [35479], which causes both options
to be set to `0` when the media settings are changed. When this occurs, the
medium_large image size will no longer be created when an image is uploaded.
Since these options aren't meant to be updated via the settings UI, they can be
safely removed from the whitelist.

[34561] instituted the policy of forcing pagination for comments. This strategy
was intended to avert problems when 'page_comments' is set to 0 - as it is by
default - and the number of comments on a given post rises into the hundreds or
thousands. By forcing pagination in all cases, we ensured that WordPress would
not time out by processing unwieldy numbers of comments on a given pageload.
The strategy proves problematic, however, because comment permalinks are
generated using the page of the comment. Forcing pagination for posts that
were not previously paginated would change the URL of all comments that do not
appear on the default comment page.
This changeset reintroduces the 'page_comments' setting and its corresponding
checkbox on Settings > Discussion. A number of tests, which were written after
[34561], are modified to work now that 'page_comments' will, once again, be
disabled by default.
