Adds a `canUpdateBlockBindings` editor setting that allows to decide if the user is able to create and modify bindings through the UI. By default, only admin users can do it, but it can be overridden with `block_editor_settings_all` filter.

After some further discussion, it is apparent that the added clarity was subjective, and the `_screen` suffix may not always be appropriate, e.g. in Ajax context. To address any confusion with the existing names, the documentation for these functions can be updated instead.
Additionally, the `is_super_admin_user()` alias for `is_super_admin()` is reverted as well, which may be reconsidered in the future.

Following the introduction of `is_login_screen()` in [53884], it is time to reconsider the `is_*_admin()` functions:
* `is_admin()`: Determines whether the current request is for an administrative interface page.
* `is_blog_admin()`: Whether the current request is for a site's administrative interface, e.g. `/wp-admin/`.
* `is_network_admin()`: Whether the current request is for the network administrative interface, e.g. `/wp-admin/network/`.
* `is_user_admin()`: Whether the current request is for a user admin screen, e.g. `/wp-admin/user/`.
For someone new to WordPress, these names can be quite confusing, especially the last one. When using these functions, one always needs to remember that they don't actually check if the current user is a site administrator.
To complicate things further, there is one more similarly named function that does exactly the latter:
* `is_super_admin()`: Determines whether user is a site admin.
With the above in mind, this commit introduces aliases that better match the functionality and allow for more descriptive code:
* `is_admin()` → `is_admin_screen()`
* `is_blog_admin()` → `is_site_admin_screen()`
* `is_network_admin()` → `is_network_admin_screen()`
* `is_user_admin()` → `is_user_admin_screen()`
Additionally, `is_super_admin_user()` is introduced as an alias for `is_super_admin()`:
* `is_super_admin()` → `is_super_admin_user()`
Plugins and themes are encouraged to start using the newer function names to make code self-descriptive and bring more clarity. The older names are not deprecated at this time, though it may be up for discussion in the future.

Until now, changing a user's role involved deleting a user's role then re-adding. This change creates a new `update_role` function and associated method in `WP_Roles` to consolidate this process.

On multisite, when checking if a user has a certain capability WordPress makes an additional check to see if the user is a super admin. The `is_super_admin()` function contained a call to `wp_get_current_user()` so as the global current user object could be used if it matched the queried user id.
This would cause an infinite loop if a hook attached to the `determine_current_user` filter was itself making a permission check. For example when limiting who can use the Application Passwords feature based on their capabilities.
Since [50790] the `WP_User` instance for the current user is shared between `wp_get_current_user()` and `get_userdata()`. This means we can remove the `wp_get_current_user` call from `is_super_admin()` while still retaining the same behavior.

Ensure `current_user_can()` and `user_can()` return the same results for logged out users. For core capabilities this changes `user_can( 0, 'exist' )` to return `true` rather than `false` in line with `current_user_can( 'exist' )` for logged out users.
Convert `current_user_can()` and `current_user_can_for_blog()` to wrapper functions ultimately calling `user_can()`.
Add anonymous user to primitive capability checks as appropriate. Convert `Tests_User_Capabilities::test_other_caps_for_all_roles()` to use a data provider and add tests to check whether user exists in the database (`WP_User::exists()`) as that intentionally differs from the `exist` capability.

Improves logic of `get_attachment_link()` to validate parent post and resolution of inherited post status. This is an incomplete fix of #52373 to prevent the function returning links resulting in a file not found error. Required to unblock this ticket.

Switching a WordPress site from HTTP to HTTPS has historically been a tedious task. While on the surface the Site Address and WordPress Address have to be updated, existing content still remains using HTTP URLs where hard-coded in the database. Furthermore, updating _two_ URLs to migrate to HTTPS is still a fairly unintuitive step which is not clearly explained.
This changeset simplifies migration from HTTP to HTTPS and, where possible, makes it a one-click interaction.
* Automatically replace insecure versions of the Site Address (`home_url()`) with its HTTPS counterpart on the fly if the site has been migrated from HTTP to HTTPS. This is accomplished by introducing a `https_migration_required` option and enabling it when the `home_url()` is accordingly changed.
* A new `wp_replace_insecure_home_url()` function is hooked into various pieces of content to replace URLs accordingly.
* The migration only kicks in when the Site Address (`home_url()`) and WordPress Address (`site_url()`) match, which is the widely common case. Configurations where these differ are often maintained by more advanced users, where this migration routine would be less essential - something to potentially iterate on in the future though.
* The migration does not actually update content in the database. More savvy users that prefer to do that can prevent the migration logic from running by either deleting the `https_migration_required` option or using the new `wp_should_replace_insecure_home_url` filter.
* For fresh sites that do not have any content yet at the point of changing the URLs to HTTPS, the migration will also be skipped since it would not be relevant.
* Expose a primary action in the Site Health recommendation, if HTTPS is already supported by the environment, built on top of the HTTPS detection mechanism from [49904]. When clicked, the default behavior is to update `home_url()` and `site_url()` in one go to their HTTPS counterpart.
* A new `wp_update_urls_to_https()` function takes care of the update routine.
* A new `update_https` meta capability is introduced to control access.
* If the site's URLs are controlled by constants, this update is not automatically possible, so in these scenarios the user is informed about that in the HTTPS status check in Site Health.
* Allow hosting providers to modify the URLs linked to in the HTTPS status check in Site Health, similar to how that is possible for the URLs around updating the PHP version.
* A `WP_UPDATE_HTTPS_URL` environment variable or `wp_update_https_url` filter can be used to provide a custom URL with guidance about updating the site to use HTTPS.
* A `WP_DIRECT_UPDATE_HTTPS_URL` environment variable or `wp_direct_update_https_url` filter can be used to provide a custom URL for the primary CTA to update the site to use HTTPS.

Previously, all permission checks for using app passwords were implemented using `edit_user`. This commit introduces a series of more fine grained meta capabilities that should be used instead: `create_app_password`, `list_app_passwords`, `read_app_password`, `edit_app_password`, `delete_app_password` and `delete_app_passwords`. These capabilities all map to `edit_user` by default, but may now be customized by developers.

With `map_meta_cap` enabled for a post type, the `read_post` capability for posts with a public status is supposed to be mapped to the post type's `read` capability.
When a post is left in the database after the post status is no longer present, and WP does a `read_post` check against it, a PHP notice was thrown, and the cap check always failed.
As a more graceful fallback, the cap is now mapped onto `edit_others_posts`, which allows highly privileged users to be able to access orphaned content.
A `_doing_it_wrong()` notice is also added, so that developers and site administrators are aware that the cap mapping is failing in the absence of the registered post status.

Using the new fatal handler introduced in [44962], an email is sent to the admin when a fatal error occurs. This email includes a secret link to enter recovery mode. When clicked, the link will be validated and on success a cookie will be placed on the client, enabling recovery mode for that user. This functionality is executed early before plugins and themes are loaded, in order to be unaffected by potential fatal errors these might be causing.
When in recovery mode, broken plugins and themes will be paused for that client, so that they are able to access the admin backend despite of these errors. They are notified about the broken extensions and the errors caused, and can then decide whether they would like to temporarily deactivate the extension or fix the problem and resume the extension.
A link in the admin bar allows the client to exit recovery mode.
