 Running PHP 8.1 I get the following error:

 `[09-May-2023 10:23:57 UTC] PHP Deprecated:  preg_split(): Passing null to
 parameter #2 ($subject) of type string is deprecated in /wp-
 includes/formatting.php on line 3442`

 A solution might be to test on the `$text` argument not being empty? But
 when I do that I get a followup error:

 `[09-May-2023 10:30:55 UTC] PHP Deprecated:  str_replace(): Passing null
 to parameter #3 ($subject) of type array|string is deprecated in /wp-
 includes/formatting.php on line 3906`

 (in wp_trim_excerpt).
