Boone Gorges 81ecd4da98 Taxonomy: Use WP_Term_Query when querying for object terms.
The new 'object_ids' parameter for `WP_Term_Query` allows queries for
terms that "belong to" a given object. This change makes it possible
to use `WP_Term_Query` inside of `wp_get_object_terms()`, rather than
assembling a SQL query.

The refactor has a couple of benefits:
* Less redundancy.
* Better consistency in accepted arguments between the term query functions. See #31105.
* Less redundancy.
* Object term queries are now cached. The `get_object_term_cache()` cache remains, and will be a somewhat less fragile secondary cache in front of the query cache (which is subject to frequent invalidation).
* Less redundancy.

A small breaking change: Previously, if a non-hierarchical taxonomy had
terms that had a non-zero 'parent' (perhaps because of a direct SQL
query), `wp_get_object_terms()` would respect the 'parent' argument.
This is in contrast to `WP_Term_Query` and `get_terms()`, which have
always rejected 'parent' queries for non-hierarchical taxonomies. For
consistency, the behavior of `get_terms()` is being applied across the
board: passing 'parent' for a non-hierarchical taxonomy will result in
an empty result set (since the cached taxonomy hierarchy will be empty).

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.
