Comment:

 In [changeset:"38944"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="38944"
 General: Add a `sanitize_textarea_field()` function.

 Like its predecessor (`sanitize_text_field()`),
 `sanitize_textarea_field()` is a helper function to sanitise user input.
 As the name suggests, this function is for sanitising input from
 `textarea` fields - it strips tags and invalid UTF-8 characters, like
 `sanitize_text_field()`, but retains newlines and extra inline whitespace.

 Props ottok, nbachiyski, chriscct7, pento.
 Fixes #32257.
