 In [changeset:"48033" 48033]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="48033"
 External Libraries: Upgrade PHPMailer to version 6.1.6.

 Now that WordPress Core supports PHP >= 5.6, the PHPMailer library can be
 updated to the latest version.

 The PHPMailer files now reside in a new directory, `wp-
 includes/PHPMailer`. These files are copied verbatim from the library
 upstream and will make updating in the future easier. For backwards
 compatibility, the old files will remain and trigger deprecated file
 warnings.

 The PHPMailer class is also now under the `PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer`
 namespace. The `PHPMailer` class in the global namespace has been aliased
 for a seamless transition.

 This upgrade also clears up a handful of PHP compatibility issues detailed
 in #49922.

 For a full list of changes, see the PHPMailer GitHub:
 https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/compare/v5.2.27...v6.1.6.

 Props Synchro, SergeyBiryukov, desrosj, donmhico, ayeshrajans.
 Fixes #41750.
