This change introduces a new Composer script, `compat` that will scan the codebase for (detectable) potential PHP compatibility issues using the `PHP_CodeSniffer` and a custom ruleset based off of the `PHPCompayibilityWP` ruleset (`phpcompat.xml.dist`).
The command will be run as a separate job within each Travis build. While many compatibility issues and false positives have already been corrected in this commit and other Trac tickets, there are still some remaining. For that reason, the job is allowed to fail while the remainder of the potential compatibility issues are investigated and addressed. After those are resolved, the job should be set as required to pass to help prevent new compatibility issues from being introduced.
Props desrosj, jrf, all PHPCompatibilityWP and PHPCompatibility contributors.

Rather than relying `func_get_args()` to retrieve arbitrary function arguments, we can now use the spread operator to assign them directly to a variable.
While these functions are deprecated, they can still get a minor performance boost in case they are being called.

Noteable changes:
- The `magic_quotes_runtime` and `magic_quotes_sybase` settings were removed in PHP 5.4, so no longer need to be set.
- Some functions that use external libraries can generate errors that can't be tested for, so are globally allowed to silence errors.
- Quite a few functions would cause errors if `safe_mode` was set. This setting was removed in PHP 5.4.
- Only a handful of `header()` calls needed corresponding `headers_sent()` checks for unit tests to pass, but more may need to be added as the nightlies builds are tested.

Use of `date()` in core depends on PHP timezone set to UTC and not changed by third party code (which cannot be guaranteed).
`gmdate()` is functionally equivalent, but is not affected by PHP timezone setting: it's always UTC, which is the exact behavior the core needs.

"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.

In addition to `wp_list_filter()` for filtering a list of objects, and `wp_list_pluck()` for plucking a certain field out of each object in a list, this new function can be used for sorting a list of objects by specific fields. These functions are now all contained within the new `WP_List_Util()` class and `wp_list_sort()` is used in various parts of core for sorting lists.
This was previously committed in [38859] but got reverted in [38862] and [38863]. To fix the previous issues, `wp_list_sort()` supports now an additional argument to preserve array keys via `uasort()`.

The position of this template within the hierarchy is of so little use that zero themes in the WordPress.org theme directory make use of it. It's second only to `index.php` in the hierarchy, meaning that any archive template such as `category.php` or `archive.php` will be chosen before it.

* Don't lower memory limit if the current limit is greater than `WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT`.
* Set `WP_MEMORY_LIMIT` and `WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT` to current limit if the `memory_limit` setting can't be changed at runtime.
* Use `wp_convert_hr_to_bytes()` when parsing the value of the `memory_limit` setting because it can be a shorthand or an integer value.
* Introduce `wp_raise_memory_limit( $context )` to raise the PHP memory limit for memory intensive processes. This DRYs up some logic and includes the existing `admin_memory_limit` and `image_memory_limit` filters. The function can also be used for custom contexts, the `{$context}_memory_limit` filter allows to customize the limit.
* Introduce `wp_is_ini_value_changeable( $setting )` to determine whether a PHP ini value is changeable at runtime.
* Remove a `function_exists( 'memory_get_usage' )` check. Since PHP 5.2.1 support for memory limit is always enabled.

`_wp_upload_dir_baseurl()` is a private function introduced in 4.4
as part of the "responsive images" feature. It was for runtime
caching of the URL to the uploads directory. It is deprecated in
4.5 with the introduction of `wp_get_upload_dir()`.
Outside core, it's only used as part of a back-compat shim in the
original feature plugin for responsive images (ricg-responsive-images),
which includes its own version of the function definition, so it's
safe to remove from core.

In PHP 5.3.0, `is_a()` is no longer deprecated, and will therefore no longer throw `E_STRICT` warnings.
To avoid warnings in PHP < 5.3.0, convert all `is_a()` calls to `$var instanceof WP_Class` calls.
`instanceof` does not throw any error if the variable being tested is not an object, it simply returns `false`.

The exceptions to this are update_post_meta() and add_post_meta() which are often used by plugins in POST handlers and will continue accepting slashed data for now.
Introduce wp_upate_post_meta() and wp_add_post_meta() as unslashed alternatives to update_post_meta() and add_post_meta(). These functions could become methods in WP_Post so don't use them too heavily yet.
Remove all escape() calls from wp_xmlrpc_server. Now that core expects unslashed data this is no longer needed.
Remove addslashes(), addslashes_gpc(), add_magic_quotes() calls on data being prepared for handoff to core functions that until now expected slashed data. Adding slashes in no longer necessary.
Introduce wp_unslash() and use to it remove slashes from GPCS data before using it in core API. Almost every instance of stripslashes() in core should now be wp_unslash(). In the future (a release or three) when GPCS is no longer slashed, wp_unslash() will stop stripping slashes and simply return what is passed. At this point wp_unslash() calls can be removed from core.
Introduce wp_slash() for slashing GPCS data. This will also turn into a noop once GPCS is no longer slashed. wp_slash() should almost never be used. It is mainly of use in unit tests.
Plugins should use wp_unslash() on data being passed to core API.
Plugins should no longer slash data being passed to core. So when you get_post() and then wp_insert_post() the post data from get_post() no longer needs addslashes(). Most plugins were not bothering with this. They will magically start doing the right thing. Unfortunately, those few souls who did it properly will now have to avoid calling addslashes() for 3.6 and newer.
Use wp_kses_post() and wp_kses_data(), which expect unslashed data, instead of wp_filter_post_kses() and wp_filter_kses(), which expect slashed data. Filters are no longer passed slashed data.
Remove many no longer necessary calls to $wpdb->escape() and esc_sql().
In wp_get_referer() and wp_get_original_referer(), return unslashed data.
Remove old stripslashes() calls from WP_Widget::update() handlers. These haven't been necessary since WP_Widget.
Switch several queries over to prepare().
