Gary Pendergast b665b5c7d8 Roles/Capabilities: Add a new `wp_roles_init` filter.
Historically, it's been difficult to extend user roles, but reasonable to work around by waiting until after `init` has fired, to add custom roles and capabilities. With the addition of Locale Switching, Core now potentially loads roles before `init` has fired, leaving a window where custom roles and capabilities are not handled.

The new filter allows plugins to add their own custom roles whenever they're initialised (on page load, or when switching sites, for example), so that they can always be obeyed.

`WP_Roles` has also been tidied up a little bit, to remove duplicate code.

Props johnjamesjacoby, pento.
Fixes #23016.

README.txt

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.
