`phpversion()` return value and `PHP_VERSION` constant value are identical, but the latter is several times faster because it is a direct constant value lookup compared to a function call.

Trigger a notice (via `_doing_it_wrong()`) for developers incorrectly setting the position when calling `add_menu_page()`.
Modify a similar message in `add_submenu_page()` to combine near identical strings and match the error description to the conditions in which it is called.

While using reserved PHP keywords as parameter name labels is allowed, in the context of function calls using named parameters in PHP 8.0+, this will easily lead to confusion. To avoid that, it is recommended not to use reserved keywords as function parameter names.
This commit:
* Renames the `$function` parameter to `$callback` in:
* `add_menu_page()`
* `add_submenu_page()`
* `add_management_page()`
* `add_options_page()`
* `add_theme_page()`
* `add_plugins_page()`
* `add_users_page()`
* `add_dashboard_page()`
* `add_posts_page()`
* `add_media_page()`
* `add_links_page()`
* `add_pages_page()`
* `add_comments_page()`
* Renames the `$echo` parameter to `$display` in `menu_page_url()`.
* Renames the `$parent` parameter to `$parent_page` in `get_admin_page_parent()`.

Permit plugin authors to pass the menu position as a float in `add_menu_page()` and `add_submenu_page()`. This allows for a common practice within major plugins to avoid menu collisions by passing a float.

This change adds a verification of the `$position` parameter in `add_menu_page()` to ensure an integer is used. If not, the function informs developers of the wrong parameter type via a `_doing_it_wrong` message. This brings consistency with a similar check used in `add_submenu_page()`.
This change also typecasts any floating number to string to ensure that in case a float value was passed, at least it doesn't override existing menus.

This adds a one-off notice to the dashboard in the event WordPress has automatically deactivated a plugin due to incompatibility with the new version of WordPress.
Introduces the new private function `deactivated_plugins_notice()` to display the notice in the dashboard. Introduces the new auto-loaded option `wp_force_deactivated_plugins` to store a list of automatically deactivated plugins; the option is used on both a site and network level.

This affects:
* `validate_plugin_requirements()`
* `validate_theme_requirements()`
Historically, the `Requires PHP` header was introduced in #meta2952 for the Plugin Directory first, so at the time it made sense to have it defined in the same place as `Requires at least`, which only existed in `readme.txt`.
Since parsing of PHP and WordPress requirements was later added to WordPress core, the core should retrieve all the necessary data from the main plugin or theme file and not from `readme.txt`, which only contains the data meant for the Plugin or Theme Directory.
The recommended place for `Requires PHP` and `Requires at least` headers is as follows:
* The plugin's main PHP file
* The theme's `style.css` file
The place for the `Tested up to` header remains in `readme.txt` for the time being, as it's not used by WordPress core.

This allows third-party plugins to avoid accidentally being overwritten with an update of a plugin of a similar name from the WordPress.org Plugin Directory.
Additionally, introduce the `update_plugins_{$hostname}` filter, which third-party plugins can use to offer updates for a given hostname.
If set, the `Update URI` header field should be a URI and have a unique hostname.
Some examples include:
* `https://wordpress.org/plugins/example-plugin/`
* `https://example.com/my-plugin/`
* `my-custom-plugin-name`
`Update URI: false` also works, and unless there is code handling the `false` hostname, the plugin will never get an update notification.
If the header is present, the WordPress.org API will currently only return updates for the plugin if it matches the following format:
* `https://wordpress.org/plugins/{$slug}/`
* `w.org/plugin/{$slug}`
If the header has any other value, the API will not return a result and will ignore the plugin for update purposes.

This avoids accidentally overriding some variables in the scope of `activate_plugin()`, e.g. `$silent` or `$network_wide`.
Plugins expecting to have access to `$network_wide` directly on inclusion should receive it as an argument of the activation hook callback instead, on any of these actions:
* `activate_plugin`
* `activate_{$plugin}`
* `activated_plugin`

“The WordPress open source community cares about diversity. We strive to maintain a welcoming environment where everyone can feel included.”
With this commit, all occurrences of “whitelist” and “blacklist” (with the single exception of the `$new_whitelist_options` global variable) are removed. A new ticket has been opened to explore renaming the `$new_whitelist_options` variable (#50434).
Changing to more specific names or rewording sentences containing these terms not only makes the code more inclusive, but also helps provide clarity. These terms are often ambiguous. What is being blocked or allowed is not always immediately clear. This can make it more difficult for non-native English speakers to read through the codebase.
Words matter. If one contributor feels more welcome because these terms are removed, this was worth the effort.

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.
