Message:

Themes: Avoid unnecessary check whether parent template file exists when not using a child theme.

Prior to this change, the locate_template() function would unconditionally check whether the relevant template file exists in the parent theme, which for sites not using a child theme is an exact duplicate of the previous check. This is wasteful and has a small impact on performance since file_exists() checks have a cost.

Props nihar007, thekt12, spacedmonkey, mukesh27.
Fixes #58576.
