Comment:

 Don think this is ready for backporting too. The reason is that the main
 task of updating the WP tests to run on the latest PHPUnit version is not
 complete yet.

 Two of the "top" requirement haven't been implemented yet: to actually be
 able to run the WP tests in PHPUnit 9.5, and to be able to install the
 polyfills (actually they are shims) globally, not in the checkout dir
 (that would support installing them in the Docker image, see #53945.

 So, unless I'm missing something, what's being backported here seems to be
 "half-done" changes.
