Tonya Mork 400982add8 Build/Test Tools: Ignore "null to nullable" deprecations for select tests.
Adds an expectation for PHP 8.1 "passing null to non-nullable" deprecation notice to select tests where the deprecation is generated by one of the functions in the `wp-includes/formatting.php` file, either via a filter hook callback or by a direct call.

Instead of haphazardly fixing these issues exposed by the tests, a more structural and all-encompassing solution for input validation should be architected and implemented as otherwise, we'll keep running into similar issues time and again with each new PHP version.

To discourage people from "fixing" these issues now anyway, this commit "hides" nearly all of these issues from the test runs.

Once a more structural solution is designed, these tests and the underlying functions causing the deprecation notices should be revisited and the structural solution put in place.

Includes a few minor other tweaks to select tests:
* Removing a stray `return` (twice) from assertion statements.
* Removing calls to `ob_*()` functions in favour of letting PHPUnit manage the output catching. This prevents warnings along the lines of `Test code or tested code did not (only) close its own output buffers`.

Props jrf, hellofromTonya.

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.
