Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"48979" 48979]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="48979"
 Tests: Revert [48973].

 These tests ensure that a `_doing_it_wrong()` notice is thrown when
 `wpdb::prepare()` is called incorrectly, but also that the function will
 still handle the provided input as correctly as possible.

 Disabling these tests on PHP 8 hides a problem, i.e. the function will no
 longer throw a notice and handle things correctly, it will now cause a
 white screen of death due to a fatal error.

 That is a backward compatibility break, and `wpdb::prepare()` should be
 updated instead to maintain the original behaviour on PHP 8.

 Props jrf, ayeshrajans.
 See #50913, #50639.
