 WordPress no longer supports installing plugins from the repository that
 have not been tested with the respective core version. However, site
 health doesn't report such plugins when core has been updated beyond what
 the plugins have been tested for.

 I think this should be added and reported with low severity.

 When a plugin has not been tested with the 3 releases prior to the
 respective core version, the severity should be higher to match the
 current standard on the plugin repository.

 The severity should be higher again when the plugin has been discontinued.

 This is relevant for wp.org plugins, but can be extended to plugins from
 other sources using standards for compatibility statements and/or
 programming hooks.

 Themes should be checked and reported in a similar manner.
