Message:

Build/Test Tools: Remove WP_UnitTestCase_Base::checkRequirements().

The method was hard-deprecated in WordPress 5.9 and retained only as a backward compatibility layer for external test suites that may have been still calling parent::checkRequirements() on PHPUnit 5/6.

As the method has not been functional since TestCase::checkRequirements() became private in PHPUnit 7.0, it should be safe to remove at this point.

Reference: ​PHPUnit Compatibility and WordPress Versions.

Developed in ​https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/13599.

Follow-up to r51605.

Props codesawmir, mukesh27.
Fixes #66135.
