-----------------------------+---------------------------
 There are reports of older versions of Gutenberg plugin, i.e. <= 16.3.0,
 being incompatible with WP 6.4 which may cause broken sites or a fatal
 error.

 Investigation / testing is needed to determine the minimum Gutenberg
 plugin version that is compatible with 6.4. If that minimum version is
 different than 14.1 (set in 6.1.1), then
 `_upgrade_core_deactivate_incompatible_plugins()` needs to be updated.

 How to test:

 1. Use Core's `trunk` or the latest 6.4 Beta release.
 2. Install and activate an older version of the Gutenberg plugin, i.e.
 between versions 14.1 and 16.3 (possibly newer). How? Go to the plugin's
 [https://wordpress.org/plugins/gutenberg/advanced/ Advanced View page],
 select the version to download in the Previous Versions section, and then
 select "Download" button. This version will need to be uploaded from your
 local testing Plugins UI.
