hellofromTonya 71977c215d Widgets: Rename and soft deprecate `retrieve_widgets()`.
The original name `retrieve_widgets()` was unclear as it suggested it was a getter, i.e. getting the widgets. This function does more than get: finds orphaned widgets, assigns them to the inactive sidebar, and updates the database.

The new name is `sync_registered_widgets()` which better represents what happens when this function is invoked.

The original `retrieve_widgets()` function is soft deprecated to avoid unnecessary code churn downstream for developers that support more than the latest version of WordPress.

Follow-up to [18630].
