An upgrader class is used in conjunction with an upgrader skin class. A skin class handles the logging for an upgrade and informs a user about the progress and failures.
The current Ajax install/update handlers are using the `Automatic_Upgrader_Skin` class because during an Ajax request no output is intended. The difference between Ajax updates and automatic updates is that you will see the full log (usually by email) while Ajax updates focus only on success or failure. For that `Automatic_Upgrader_Skin` has one disadvantage: It doesn't provide a way to retrieve failure messages which were passed through `WP_Upgrader_Skin::error()` by the upgrader.
To solve this issue a new skin `WP_Ajax_Upgrader_Skin` has been introduced. The skin extends `Automatic_Upgrader_Skin` and overrides the `error()` and `feedback()` methods to intercept all errors, which can be a `WP_Error` object or a string.
This updates all four Ajax handler for installing/updating themes/plugins to use the new skin. They now also check the skin for any intercepted errors and pass them on to the user.
Merge of [38199] to the 4.6 branch.

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.

Both list tables provide different actions based on where they are loaded, regular admin or network admin. Since there is only one Ajax handler for both screens we have to set the current screen before using the list tables.

`Pragma` is supposed to be a request header, but we've been including it in responses since the beginning of time.
This is a relic dating all the way back to b2, probably originally added because Internet Explorer version 5 and earlier didn't understand the `Cache-Control` header in responses, but they did (incorrectly) obey the `Pragma` header.
Internet Explorer 6 and 7 will obey the `Pragma` response header only if no other cache-related response headers are present (in our case, they are always present), and all other browsers ignore the `Pragma` response header.

The new format looks like "Sorry, you are not allowed to <action>.". This provides a consistent experience for all error messages related to missing permissions. It also reduces the number of similar strings and allows translators to provide a consistent style in their language.

Gone are the days of isolation and feelings of "meh", brought on by The Bleak Screen of Sadness. For a shiny knight has arrived to usher our plugins and themes along their arduous journey of installation, updates, and the inevitable fate of ultimate deletion.

Also use 'back-compat' in some inline comments where backward compatibility is the subject and shorthand feels more natural.
Note: 'backwards compatibility/compatibile' can also be considered correct, though it's primary seen in regular use in British English.

User dropdowns in wp-admin have traditionally shown the users' display names.
However, this causes ambiguity when users share display names. To correct this,
we now show the unique user_login in parentheses after the display name.
The new `display_name_with_login` value for the `show` parameter of
`wp_dropdown_users()` enables this functionality. The default value of `show`
has not been changed, for backward compatibility, but all instances of
`wp_dropdown_users()` in core wp-admin have been switched.
This changeset also reduces some duplicated logic when assembling a user list
when `include_selected` is true.
