Comment:

 In [changeset:"58905" 58905]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="58905"
 Script Loader: Check if `error_reporting()` exists in
 `load-(scripts|styles).php`.

 This avoids a fatal error on PHP 8 if `error_reporting()` is disabled in
 `php.ini`.

 On systems with this function disabled, it's best to add a dummy function
 to the `wp-config.php` file, as there are multiple other calls in core or
 plugins.

 However, as this call to the function is run prior to `wp-config.php`
 loading, it is now wrapped in a `function_exists()` check.

 Follow-up to [50447].

 Fixes #61873.
