Comment:

 In [changeset:"59677" 59677]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="59677"
 Formatting: Preserve `target="_blank"` in Biographical Info and Category
 Description.

 This changeset ensures the `target="_blank"` attribute is preserved when
 adding links in the Biographical Info and Category Description fields.
 Previously, this attribute was being stripped by the KSES sanitization
 process.

 Additionally, new unit tests have been added to verify the preservation of
 the `target="_blank"` attribute in these specific contexts.

 Fixes #12056.
