Pascal Birchler 0ad0726617 Sitemaps: add lastmod for individual posts and the homepage.
When the XML sitemaps feature was originally introduced, the `lastmod` field was omitted because guidance at the time indicated it was less important for search engines, plus for some entities it was computationally expensive to add. Now that the guidance has slightly changed, we are revisiting this and adding `lastmod` where easily possible.

- Adds `lastmod` to all individual post objects (of any post type) in the sitemap
- Adds `lastmod` to the homepage sitemap entry if the homepage is set to display the latest posts.

No `lastmod` is added for the individual sitemap pages in the sitemap index, nor for term archives or user archives. Those enhancements require additional changes, such as storing the modified date for a taxonomy term when something is added to that term. They can be revisited in separate follow-up tickets.

Props swissspidy, joemcgill.

The short version:

1. Create a clean MySQL database and user. DO NOT USE AN EXISTING DATABASE or you will lose data, guaranteed.

2. Copy wp-tests-config-sample.php to wp-tests-config.php, edit it and include your database name/user/password.

3. $ svn up

4. Run the tests from the "trunk" directory:
   To execute a particular test:
      $ phpunit tests/phpunit/tests/test_case.php
   To execute all tests:
      $ phpunit

Notes:

Test cases live in the 'tests' subdirectory. All files in that directory will be included by default. Extend the WP_UnitTestCase class to ensure your test is run.

phpunit will initialize and install a (more or less) complete running copy of WordPress each time it is run. This makes it possible to run functional interface and module tests against a fully working database and codebase, as opposed to pure unit tests with mock objects and stubs. Pure unit tests may be used also, of course.

Changes to the test database will be rolled back as tests are finished, to ensure a clean start next time the tests are run.

phpunit is intended to run at the command line, not via a web server.
