Changeset 63012 for trunk/src/wp-includes/default-filters.php

Message:

Comments: Notify users mentioned in a note.

Introduce wp_notify_note_mentions() on rest_insert_comment, alongside the existing post author notification, which parses those IDs out of the saved note and emails each mentioned user in their own locale with a link back to the post editor.

Recipients are limited to users who can edit_comment the note, matching WP_REST_Comments_Controller::check_read_permission(), so an email cannot carry note content to someone who cannot see the note in the editor. The note's own author is skipped, as is the post author, who wp_new_comment_via_rest_notify_postauthor() already notifies about every note. Only note creation notifies, and the existing wp_notes_notify option turns the whole path off.

See related Gutenberg pull request: ​https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79606.

Follow-up to [62832].
