Comment (by desrosj):

 @avixansa `WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE` is used to configure the types of
 WordPress updates that you'd like to receive automatically. In your case,
 you were specifying `minor` updates (updates to the Z number in X.Y.Z).

 This is actually the default behavior of WordPress Core. So you can safely
 remove that constant and should not see any problems or changes in
 behavior.

 The new column that you are seeing on the plugin page is a feature added
 in 5.5, so it looks like your site updated correctly.

 However, sometimes it is desired to define `WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE` as
 `minor`, so the issue described here and expanded by @SergeyBiryukov above
 should still be fixed.
