 If we try to run the next code
 `<scri<script></script>pt>alert("krya");</script>` via the
 `wp_strip_all_tags` function it remove the script content only once. So,
 the next hack allows passing the script content throw the function.

 ## In details.

 First iteration:
 - input: `<scri<script></script>pt>alert("krya");</script>
 - output: `<script>alert("krya");</script>`

 Thankfully the `strip_tags` removes scripts tags later, but the content is
 still present.
