In 31531:

Fix line endings after [31522].

fixes #31430.

[SergeyBiryukov]

Apparently patching unit test files with grunt patch on Windows changes line endings.

We should probably set svn:eol-style to native for test files, like we did for core, but that breaks some tests that use the heredoc syntax (<<<), like Tests_Post_Template::test_wp_dropdown_pages() here.

[31531] fixes the issue at hand for now.

Could we safely update the tests to use a different syntax?

Created #31432 to see what we can do.
