Comment:

 In [attachment:"51292.2.diff"]:

 * Adds default terms for taxonomies if required in `wp_publish_post()`
 * Unit tests to ensure default terms are added
 * Unit tests to ensure default terms do not override existing terms
 * Tests to ensure term counts are modified accordingly. It could be argued
 that these tests do not belong on this ticket. Writing these tests for
 another ticket led me to discover this bug so that's why they are
 included.

 **Props due to @TimothyBlynJacobs** for review on pull request.
