I'm expanding the scope here to also account for widget_text filters applying when plugins will expect $instance['filter'] to be a boolean, not a boolean with a possible string value of content.

    2222So in order to preserve backwards compatibility for plugins that look at the `$instance` param, the instance data needs to be transformed from the Custom HTML instance schema over to the Text widget instance schema.

     24This is also actually the case for existing `widget_text` filters for the Text widget itself. In 4.8 the `filter` param was set to a fixed `content` but if any filters do any checking of `$instance['filter'] === true` then these checks will fail. Now that there is a boolean `legacy` instance property, we can eliminate the `content` value for the `filter` property and just always set it to `true`.
