Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"53853" 53853]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="53853"
 Code Modernization: Remove dynamic properties in `Tests_Post_Revisions`.

 Dynamic (non-explicitly declared) properties are deprecated as of PHP 8.2
 and are expected to become a fatal error in PHP 9.0.

 In this particular case, the test class contains a `set_up()` method that
 sets the `$post_type` property, which is ''used'' by the tests, but never
 ''changed'' by the tests.

 In other words, setting this property in the `set_up()` is an unnecessary
 overhead and the property should be changed to a class constant.

 Follow-up to [1212/tests], [52389], [53557], [53558], [53850], [53851],
 [53852].

 Props jrf.
 See #56033.
