Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"51529" 51529]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="51529"
 Code Modernization: Silence the deprecation warnings for missing return
 type in `WP_Theme`.

 This fixes the "Deprecated: Return type of
 `WP_Theme::[METHODNAME]($offset)` should be compatible with
 `ArrayAccess::[METHODNAME](): type`" warnings on PHP 8.1.

 PHP native interfaces now have declared return types and methods in
 classes implementing these interfaces need to either have the return type
 declared (in a covariant compatible manner with the PHP native interface
 method declaration), or need to silence the deprecation warning using the
 `#[ReturnTypeWillChange]` attribute.

 Follow-up to [51517].

 Props jrf.
 See #53635.
