Comment (by audrasjb):

 In [changeset:"59703" 59703]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="59703"
 Posts, Post Types: Remove `title` attribute from `the_shortlink()`.

 Since [13683], `the_shortlink()` has included a `title` attribute. By
 default, that gives the sanitized post title, and it does not sanitize
 custom text. Given the low value of this attribute, this changeset removes
 it.

 Props sabernhardt, audrasjb, joedolson.
 Fixes #62838.
 See #24766.
