Jonny Harris 0c7ddbd67a Options, Meta APIs: Optimize get_option by relocating notoptions cache lookup.
In the get_option function, a cache lookup for the notoptions key is performed, which stores an array of keys for options known not to exist. This optimization prevents repeated database queries when certain options are requested. However, the cache lookup for notoptions was conducted before checking if the requested option exists in the cache. Given that it's more likely that the option does exist, this commit reorders the checks to first verify the option's existence in the cache before confirming its absence. This adjustment reduces redundant queries and also eliminates an unnecessary cache lookup, improving overall performance.

Fixes #58277.

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.
