WordPress has supported custom page templates for over 12 years, allowing developers to create various layouts for specific pages.
While this feature is very helpful, it has always been limited to the 'page' post type and not was not available to other post types.
By opening up the page template functionality to all post types, we continue to improve the template hierarchy's flexibility.
In addition to the `Template Name` file header, the post types supported by a template can be specified using `Template Post Type: post, foo, bar`.
When at least one template exists for a post type, the 'Post Attributes' meta box will be displayed in the back end, without the need to add post type support for `'page-attributes'`. 'Post Attributes' can be customized per post type using the `'attributes'` label when registering a post type.

By enabling the user to select their preferred locale when editing the profile, we allow for greater personalization of the WordPress admin and therefore a better user experience.
The back end will be displayed in the user's individual locale while the locale used on the front end equals the one set for the whole site. If the user didn't specify a locale, the site's locale will be used as a fallback. The new `locale` property of the `WP_User` class can be used to retrieve the user's locale setting.

Themes which are not yet updated can still have the old tags. This makes sure that these tags are still translated.

Applying these specially-crafted `@see` tags allows the Code Reference parser to recognize and link these elements as actions and filters.
See #36921.

Also use 'back-compat' in some inline comments where backward compatibility is the subject and shorthand feels more natural.
Note: 'backwards compatibility/compatibile' can also be considered correct, though it's primary seen in regular use in British English.
Props ocean90.

* `WP_Theme::network_enable_theme()` can be used to enable a theme or array of themes on a network.
* `WP_Theme::network_disable_theme()` can be used to disable a theme or array of themes on a network.
* Use these new methods in the network admin vs direct `update_site_option()` calls.
* Add tests.

Multisite functions use the term "blog" to refer to what we now call a "site," e.g. `get_current_blog_id()`. These functions are here to stay because of our commitment to backwards compatibility. What we can do is set the documentation straight.

* Move the legacy `allowed_themes` filter to `WP_Theme::get_allowed_on_network()`, where it will continue to filter themes allowed on the network.
* Add `network_allowed_themes` filter to `WP_Theme::get_allowed()` and pass `$blog_id` to provide context.
* Add `site_allowed_themes` filter to `WP_Theme::get_allowed_on_site()` and pass `$blog_id` to provide context.

In `populate_options()`, if the theme specified by `WP_DEFAULT_THEME` doesn't exist, fall back to the latest core default theme. If we can't find a core default theme, `WP_DEFAULT_THEME` is the best we can do.

The `theme_page_templates` hook was originally added in [27297] as `page_templates`, and later renamed in [27470]. Previously, it was only possible to remove or rename page templates via this hook.

The `_network_option()` parameter order will be changing to accept `$network_id` first. The `_site_option()` functions will remain in use throughout core as our way of retrieving a network option for the current network.

Replaces all uses of `*_site_option()` with the corresponding "network" function.
This excludes one usage in `wp-admin/admin-footer.php` that needs more investigation.

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`.

Per our inline documentation standards, no further use of the `@uses` tag is recommended as used and used-by relationships can be derived through other means. This removes most uses of the tag in core documentation, with remaining tags to be converted to `@global` or `@see` as they apply.

* New task runner (Grunt), configured to copy a built WordPress to build/.
* svn:ignore and .gitignore for Gruntfile.js, wp-config.php, and node.js.
* Remove Akismet external from develop.svn. Still exists in core.svn.
* Drop minified files from src/. The build process will now generate these.
