Message:

Code Modernization: Fix PHP 8 "ArgumentCountError: array_merge() does not accept unknown named parameters" fatal error in retrieve_widgets().

As per the documentation of call_user_func_array(), the $param_arr should be a (numerically) indexed array, not a string-keyed array.

As we can use the spread operator in PHP 5.6+, there isn't really any need to use call_user_func_array() anyhow, we can call the array_merge() function directly.

The caveat to this is that the spread operator only works on numerically indexed arrays, so we need to wrap the $sidebars_widgets variable in a call to array_values() when using the spread operator.

Using array_values() in the existing call_user_func_array() call would also have solved this, but the solution now proposed, has the added benefit of getting rid of the overhead of call_user_func_array().

Props jrf.
See #50913.
