Description:
This PR adds unit tests for the wp_reset_vars() function in wp-admin/includes/misc.php. These tests ensure that the function correctly resets global variables based on the values in $_POST and $_GET, or defaults them to an empty string.

The tests cover:

  • Resetting variables from $_POST when they are not empty.
  • Resetting variables from $_GET when they are empty in $_POST (including cases like '0' or '').
  • Defaulting variables to an empty string when they are missing from both $_POST and $_GET.
  • Handling multiple variables simultaneously.
