Comment:

 I would like to see some unit tests to support this change.  Here is a
 draft for the make post for when that is ready.

 ## Persistent count caching in 4.8

 The `counts` cache group has historically been excluded since [7986] fixed
 #6740. In the last 8 years, changes have made this no longer necessary.
 As such, `counts` is no longer a non-persistent group as of #XXXX. This
 should enable sites using a persistent cache to reduce the number of
 queries on certain page loads.

 If you are are using the `counts` cache group in your code or are running
 a site with a persistant cache, you are highly encouraged to test this
 change.
