Coding Standards: Replace include_once with require_once for required files.

Per ​WordPress PHP coding standards, it is strongly recommended to use require[_once] for unconditional includes. When using include[_once], PHP will throw a warning when the file is not found but will continue execution, which will almost certainly lead to other errors/warnings/notices being thrown if your application depends on the file loaded, potentially leading to security leaks. For that reason, require[_once] is generally the better choice as it will throw a Fatal Error if the file cannot be found.

Follow-up to [1674], [1812], [1964], [6779], [8540], [10521], [11005], [11911], [16065], [16149], [25421], [25466], [25823], [37714], [42981], [45448], [47198], [54276], [55633].
