Docs: Standardize on 'backward compatibility/compatible' nomenclature in core inline docs.

Also use 'back-compat' in some inline comments where backward compatibility is the subject and shorthand feels more natural.

Note: 'backwards compatibility/compatibile' can also be considered correct, though it's primary seen in regular use in British English.

Props ocean90.
Fixes #36835.

Security: Update bundled Root Certificates.

The Root Certificate bundle maintained by Mozilla ships in WordPress to allow SSL certificates to be verified on hosts with incomplete, outdated, or invalid local SSL configurations.

This updates the ca-bundle.crt file to the latest version, which applies upstream changes from the bundle maintained by Mozilla and keeps all unexpired legacy 1024bit certificates which are kept for backward compatibility purposes (see [35919]).

Partially merges [37431], [46094], [58707], [59740] and [59969] to the 4.5 branch.
