Comment (by ocean90):

 In [changeset:"38236"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="38236"
 Media: In `_wp_handle_upload()` use `call_user_func_array()` to call the
 upload error handler.

 The default error handler `wp_handle_upload_error()` expects a reference
 for the first parameter but `call_user_func()` doesn't pass parameters by
 reference. The current code didn't produce any issues until now. PHP 7.0.9
 (and PHP 7.1) is now stricter and prevents calling the error handler with
 a warning:
 > PHP Warning:  Parameter 1 to wp_handle_upload_error() expected to be a
 reference, value given.

 To restore the error handler `_wp_handle_upload()` now uses
 `call_user_func_array()`.

 Merge of [38235] to the 4.6 branch.

 Props jbrinley.
 Props jorbin for review.
 See #37570.
