David Baumwald ac64f38b66 Database: Add %i placeholder support to $wpdb->prepare to escape table and column names.
WordPress does not currently provide an explicit method for escaping SQL table and column names. This leads to potential security vulnerabilities, and makes reviewing code for security unnecessarily difficult.  Also, static analysis tools also flag the queries as having unescaped SQL input.

Tables and column names in queries are usually in-the-raw, since using the existing `%s` will straight quote the value, making the query invalid.

This change introduces a new `%i` placeholder in `$wpdb->prepare` to properly quote table and column names using backticks.

Fixes #52506.
