This is a major release and contains breaking changes.
Most important changes to be aware of for this release:
* All code is now namespaced. Though there is a full backward compatibility layer available and the old class names are still supported, using them will generate a deprecation notice (which can be silenced by plugins if they'd need to support multiple WP versions). See the [https://requests.ryanmccue.info/docs/upgrading.html upgrade guide] for more details.
* A lot of classes have been marked `final`. This should generally not affect userland code as care has been taken to not apply the `final` keyword to classes which are known to be extended in userland code.
* Extensive input validation has been added to Requests. When Requests is used as documented though, this will be unnoticable.
* A new `WpOrg\Requests\Requests::has_capabilities()` method has been introduced which can be used to address #37708.
* A new `WpOrg\Requests\Response::decode_body()` method has been introduced which may be usable to simplify some of the WP native wrapper code.
* Remaining PHP 8.0 compatibility fixed (support for named parameters).
* PHP 8.1 compatibility.

This commit also resolves 2 blocking issues which previously caused the revert of [52244]:
* New Requests files are loaded into `wp-includes/Requests/src/`, matching the location of the library. In doing so, filesystems that are case-insensitive are not impacted (see #54582).
* Preload: During a Core update, the old Requests files are preloaded into memory before the update deletes the files. Preloading avoids fatal errors noted in #54562.

When rendering a list of attachments in `WP_Media_List_Table` class, none image attachments, show a generic icon. However, attachment types like audio and video support adding a featured image. For attachments that have featured images, us this image instead of the icon. This featured image is a better preview than a generic icon.

Since `ABSPATH` is defined and documented to end with a forward slash `/`, this changeset removes the first `/` from strings appended to `ABSPATH` in various files, leading to `//` in the resulting path.

This commit adds inline comments instructing PHPCS to ignore some lines for database queries. An explanation is provided with each instruction.
This resolves a few WPCS warnings along the lines of:
{{{
Use placeholders and $wpdb->prepare(); found interpolated variable $table_name at "DESC $table_name"
}}}

While the `$type` and `$label` variables are set to values that do not currently require escaping, this may change in the future, so it is preferable to add the escaping as a defensive coding measure.

Because themes are updated independently of Core updates, any deleted files from bundled themes should not be included in the `$_old_files` list.
Any file included in this list is deleted on update, which could cause problems for sites with a given theme active if the removed files were required in earlier versions of that theme and that theme is not updated at the same time.

This properly deletes the now empty `src/wp-includes/blocks/comments-query-loop` directory and adds that directory to the `$_old_files` array.
The files in this directory were removed in [54257], but the directory was not marked as deleted in SVN.

Calling the `wp_get_theme` function creates a instance of the `WP_Theme` class. This can be a performance issue, if all you need is one property of the class instance. This change replaces the usage of `wp_get_theme()->get_stylesheet()` with `get_stylesheet()` to improve performance.

This partially reverts [53860] and [53862], which refactored the `exists()` method to rely on `ftp_rawlist()` instead of `ftp_nlist()`.
[53860] makes a similar attempt to the ones made in [33648] and [34733] (which were also reverted in [35944]). Being compliant with the specifications while continuing to work without issue for all FTP servers continues seem impossible. These little ghosts are the ones we’re scared of the most.

In [53874] the optional `$locale` parameter was added to `load_textdomain()`. While most `load_textdomain()` calls in core were were updated, some were missed. Passing the original locale avoids the need to call `determine_locale()` by `load_textdomain()` which is used as a fallback.

Resolves a fatal error due to `get_template_hierarchy()` due to incompatible older Gutenberg versions.
[54269] introduced this new function for 6.1. The function was introduced in Gutenberg 13.9.0. However, it was not guarded to protect the plugin from when the function was loaded in Core. Gutenberg 14.1.0 added the `function_exists()` guard to protect the plugin from the fatal error.
Minimum compatible version:
This commit changes the Gutenberg minimum compatible version number to 14.1. For versions older than 14.1, the plugin will deactivate when upgrading Core to 6.1 or newer.
Function rename:
Past commits renamed the upgrade function by changing Core's version number. This commit renames the function to be generic, i.e. `_upgrade_core_deactivate_incompatible_plugins()` and adopts the `@since [reason]` strategy to track historical changes to the function.

When used inline, the SVG needs the `aria-hidden`, `focusable`, and `viewBox` properties for accessibility. Additionally, this optimizes the SVG by using `cirlce` elements in place of `path`, and removing `clipPath`. There is no visible change, but the file is now one-third the size.
