Comment:

 In [changeset:"49114" 49114]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="49114"
 Dashboard: Show `2` w.org news items to preserve clustered posts.

 These days there are often 2 posts published close to each other, like a
 release announcement and a Month In WordPress post. When that happens, the
 earlier post is often pushed out of the widget before many people have had
 a chance to see it.

 Ideally, the number of total items would remain at `4`, to reduce visual
 clutter. Implementing a conditional item would require a significant
 refactor, though. Increasing the total number of items to `5` is a
 practical compromise.

 Props hlashbrooke, tellyworth.
 Fixes #43441.
