Comment (by afragen):
Is it really necessary to have `Tested up to` defined in the main
plugin/theme file? For the purposes of this patch the only utilized
headers, `Requires at least` and `Requires PHP` are already resolved to be
required in the main plugin file. https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins
/plugin-basics/header-requirements/
While I understand the desire for consistency, the `Tested up to` header
only has relevance to the plugin directory and the plugin directory
doesn't parse the main plugin file.
