New description:

 The `addslashes_gpc()` function is just a wrapper for `wp_slash()`. It
 should be moved to deprecated.php and deprecated to help reduce confusion
 about magic quoting, which is where this function originated.

 There are some uses of `addslashes_gpc()` that need to be switched to
 `wp_slash()` too.
