John Blackbourn 9990abec14 Plugins: Introduce singular capabilities for activating and deactivating individual plugins.
This introduces the following meta capabilities:

* `activate_plugin`
* `deactivate_plugin`
* `deactivate_plugins`

The singular `activate_plugin` and `deactivate_plugin` capabilities are used along with the corresponding plugin name when
determining whether or not a user can activate or deactivate an individual plugin.

The plural `deactivate_plugins` capability is used in place of the existing `activate_plugins` capability when determining
whether a user can deactivate plugins.

Each of these new meta capabilities map to the existing `activate_plugins` primitive capability, which means there is no
change in existing behaviour, but plugins can now filter the capabilities required to activate and deactivate individual
plugins.

Fixes #38652

The short version:

1. Create a clean MySQL database and user.  DO NOT USE AN EXISTING DATABASE or you will lose data, guaranteed.

2. Copy wp-tests-config-sample.php to wp-tests-config.php, edit it and include your database name/user/password.

3. $ svn up

4. Run the tests from the "trunk" directory:
   To execute a particular test:
      $ phpunit tests/phpunit/tests/test_case.php
   To execute all tests:
      $ phpunit

Notes:

Test cases live in the 'tests' subdirectory.  All files in that directory will be included by default.  Extend the WP_UnitTestCase class to ensure your test is run.

phpunit will initialize and install a (more or less) complete running copy of WordPress each time it is run.  This makes it possible to run functional interface and module tests against a fully working database and codebase, as opposed to pure unit tests with mock objects and stubs.  Pure unit tests may be used also, of course.

Changes to the test database will be rolled back as tests are finished, to ensure a clean start next time the tests are run.

phpunit is intended to run at the command line, not via a web server.
