 Code Modernization: Rename parameters that use reserved keywords in `wp-
 includes/deprecated.php`.

 While using reserved PHP keywords as parameter name labels is allowed, in
 the context of function calls using named parameters in PHP 8.0+, this
 will easily lead to confusion. To avoid that, it is recommended not to use
 reserved keywords as function parameter names.

 This commit:
 * Renames the `$echo` parameter to `$display` in:
  * `the_category_ID()`
  * `get_author_link()`
  * `get_links()`
  * `get_category_rss_link()`
  * `get_author_rss_link()`
 * Renames the `$string` parameter to `$text` in `wp_specialchars()`.
 * Renames the `$string` parameter to `$message` in `debug_fwrite()`.
 * Renames the `$string` parameter to `$content` in
 `wp_kses_js_entities()`.
