Hiding the `$wpdb` global behind a property decreases the readability of the code, as well as causing irrelevant output when dumping an object.

By enabling the user to select their preferred locale when editing the profile, we allow for greater personalization of the WordPress admin and therefore a better user experience.
The back end will be displayed in the user's individual locale while the locale used on the front end equals the one set for the whole site. If the user didn't specify a locale, the site's locale will be used as a fallback. The new `locale` property of the `WP_User` class can be used to retrieve the user's locale setting.

Also use 'back-compat' in some inline comments where backward compatibility is the subject and shorthand feels more natural.
Note: 'backwards compatibility/compatibile' can also be considered correct, though it's primary seen in regular use in British English.

Multisite functions use the term "blog" to refer to what we now call a "site," e.g. `get_current_blog_id()`. These functions are here to stay because of our commitment to backwards compatibility. What we can do is set the documentation straight.

This change introduces the vernacular of "meta" vs "primitive" capabilities to core docs, and providing examples for each inline and attempts to make it clear that `$object_id` is really only useful if the passed `$capability` is of the meta cap variety.
Props jliman for the initial patch.

We already accept 'id'. `ID` more closely matches the database and
`WP_User` schemas.

Creates:
`class-wp-roles.php`
`class-wp-role.php`
`class-wp-user.php`
`capbilities-functions.php`
`capbilities.php` contains only top-level code. Class files only contains classes. Functions file only contains functions.
