Changes (by swissspidy):

 * keywords:   => needs-patch good-first-bug
 * version:   => 5.8


Comment:

 The incorrect docs were added in [52795] / #55249

 It was added because the underlying `get_post_meta` and `get_metadata_raw`
 functions have the same note about negative values. Introduced in [50641]
 / #51797. Thus setting the version here to 5.8.

 So the problem is a bit more widespread and the docblock needs to be
 updated for more functions than just `get_post_custom`. There are about 8
 occurrences of "(non-numeric, zero, or negative value)" in core at the
 moment .
