Comment:

 In [changeset:"50566" 50566]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="50566"
 Robots: Remove contradictory directive check in `wp_robots()`.

 Removes the mutually exclusive directives check in `wp_robots()`, ie allow
 both `follow` and `nofollow` to be specified and for `archive` and
 `noarchive` to be specified.

 This fixes a bug in which WordPress would defer to the most permissive
 over the least permissive. When contradictory instructions are included,
 WordPress will defer to the search engine's or archivist's resolution
 policy: generally this is to observe the least, not most permissive.

 Props Cybr, flixos90.
 Fixes #52713.
