This change reduces the number of API calls which WordPress makes to api.wordpress.org during release windows.
Previously the background updates would run upon every core update transient refresh, however now they'll only run if there's an update available.
The change also increases the cache period for plugin & theme checks when running via the cron, from never-cache to 2 hours, which should hopefully reduce the number of needless API calls.
Fixes#43103 for trunk.

Calling the `count_users()` function is expensive, regardless of the counting strategy that's used, and it gets
slower the more users there are on a site. In order to speed up the Users screen in the admin area, calling
`count_users()` can be avoided entirely while still displaying the total count for users.
This introduces some new functions:
* `wp_is_large_user_count()`
* `wp_get_active_user_count()`
* `wp_update_active_user_count()`
A corresponding `wp_is_large_user_count` filter is also introduced.

* `wp-admin` and `wp-includes` are scanned for classes to autoload
* Several 3rd-party and Ryan McCue-shaped libraries are excluded when the classmap is generated, see `composer.json`: `autoload.exclude-from-classmap`
* `wp-vendor/autoload_52.php` is included at the top of `wp-settings.php` - no changes need to be made to unit tests to include the autoloader
* An avalanche of `require()` and `require_once()` calls that loaded class files have been removed from the codebase.
The following files have been added to `svn:ignore` - they are not 5.2-compatible and fail during pre-commit:
* src/wp-vendor/autoload.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_real.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_static.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/ClassLoader.php
We favor these files instead:
* src/wp-vendor/autoload_52.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/autoload_real_52.php
* src/wp-vendor/composer/ClassLoader52.php
When new PHP classes are added to the codebase, simply run `composer install` or `composer update` from the project root to update the autoloader.
The future is now.

The `WP_INSTALLING` constant is a flag that WordPress sets in a number of
places, telling the system that options should be fetched directly from the
database instead of from the cache, that WP should not ping wordpress.org for
updates, that the normal "not installed" checks should be bypassed, and so on.
A constant is generally necessary for this purpose, because the flag is
typically set before the WP bootstrap, meaning that WP functions are not yet
available. However, it is possible - notably, during `wpmu_create_blog()` -
for the "installing" flag to be set after WP has already loaded. In these
cases, `WP_INSTALLING` would be set for the remainder of the process, since
there's no way to change a constant once it's defined. This, in turn, polluted
later function calls that ought to have been outside the scope of site
creation, particularly the non-caching of option data. The problem was
particularly evident in the case of the automated tests, where `WP_INSTALLING`
was set the first time a site was created, and remained set for the rest of the
suite.
The new `wp_installing()` function allows developers to fetch the current
installation status (when called without any arguments) or to set the
installation status (when called with a boolean `true` or `false`). Use of
the `WP_INSTALLING` constant is still supported; `wp_installing()` will default
to `true` if the constant is defined during the bootstrap.

* `wp_version_check()`, `wp_update_plugins()`, and `wp_update_themes()` do not return meaningful responses, and their responses are never handled by core. As such, they shouldn't alternately return `void` or `false`. "Returning" in those functions is just "bailing"
* In the same functions, `version.php` doesn't need to load if `WP_INSTALLING` is defined - the function will immediately bail, the values will never be read, and the globals won't be reset. I have unified the approach in all 3 functions.
* When returning filtered `$locale`, there is no need to set the variable twice.
* In `_maybe_update_core()`, `isset()` can take multiple values to bail before the call to `time()`, if necessary. This is a micro-optimization to prevent PHP from hitting the OS unnecessarily.

This makes it match most cache-clearing functions, including the ones it wraps. Also no need for it to be prefixed as "private."
wp_clean_plugins_cache() doesn't always exist, so as a quick fix, clear the transient we care to clear.

The update screen has a re-install button which could show the wrong language locale after the site language was changed. That's because the update data is cached.
Introduce `_wp_clear_update_cache()` as a helper function to clean up the update cache.

This is only enabled when new files will not be installed during the update (as indicated by the WordPress.org API), and does not apply to Plugin/Theme/Translation Background Updates.
Additionally, the code to determine if the 'direct' filesystem transport should be used has been tweaked for wider support (where getmyuid() was unavailalbe) which fixes#10424
