Sergey Biryukov 28716eb8a6 Code Modernization: Remove dynamic properties in WP_UnitTestCase_Base.
Dynamic (non-explicitly declared) properties are deprecated as of PHP 8.2 and are expected to become a fatal error in PHP 9.0.

In this particular case, the `scandir()` method sets a dynamic `$matched_dirs` property, which is subsequently used in the `delete_folders()` method.

This commit removes the need for the property. Effectively, this changes the `scandir()` method to return an array of the matched directories instead of setting the property by using recursion in the method itself in an optimized manner.

Note the `array_merge()` not being in the loop itself, but at the very end of the function. This is for performance reasons, see [https://github.com/dseguy/clearPHP/blob/master/rules/no-array_merge-in-loop.md clearPHP: No array_merge() In Loops] for a more detailed explanation of this.

It has been verified in detail that the actual results of the previous version of the method and this version match, even when the paths passed are more complex and have deeper nested subdirectories.

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.
