Sergey Biryukov 85106c694d Code Modernization: Fix null to non-nullable deprecations in wp_xmlrpc_server::_insert_post().
The `wp_xmlrpc_server::_insert_post()` method creates a new post via `wp_insert_post()` or updates an existing one via `wp_update_post()`, which subsequently calls `wp_insert_post()`. However, the default/fallback values used in the function were not in line with the default/fallback values used in the `wp_insert_post()` function.

The `wp_insert_post()` function does a `wp_parse_args()` (array merge) of the received arguments with the defaults. If any of the received arguments are `null`, this would overwrite the default value, as seen in [https://3v4l.org/bfVlv array_merge() example], and lead to "passing null to non-nullable" deprecation notices on PHP 8.1 for certain arguments.

Unfortunately, the conditional logic within the `wp_xmlrpc_server::_insert_post()` function itself often uses an `isset()` to trigger certain code blocks, so syncing the defaults with those used in the `wp_insert_post()` function was not an option.

This commit:
* Updates the default/fallback values in the `$defaults` array only for those values where this would not lead to a change in the behavior of the function.
* Adds a safeguard function, filtering out all remaining `null` values from the `$post_data` array before it is passed on to the `wp_insert_post()` or `wp_update_post()` functions. Removing those values is safe as this means that these array keys will now:
 * either be set to the default/fallback value as defined in `wp_insert_post()`.
 * or not be set and for those values which don't have a default/fallback value in `wp_insert_post()`, the function does an `! empty()` or `isset()` check anyway and those array keys not being defined means that the result of those checks will remain the same.

Includes
* Removing a couple of conditions which are now redundant.
* Removing an `expectDeprecation()` in the `Tests_Date_XMLRPC` test class, which is now no longer needed.

Fixes various errors along the lines of:
