 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="51872"
 Tests: Update the `Services_JSON` test for PHPUnit 9.5.10/8.5.21+.

 Since PHPUnit 9.5.10 and 8.5.21, PHP deprecations are no longer converted
 to exceptions by default (`convertDeprecationsToExceptions="true"` can be
 configured to enable this).

 Reference:
 [https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/commit/fac02620f6b38ae54d47fe840e0095e68226a56c
 Do not convert PHP deprecations to exceptions by default];
 [https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/blob/9.5.10/ChangeLog-9.5.md#9510
 ---2021-09-25 PHPUnit 9.5.10 changelog].

 With this change, the test for the `Services_JSON` compat class started
 failing:
 {{{
 There was 1 failure:

 1) Tests_Compat_jsonEncodeDecode::test_json_encode_decode
 Failed asserting that exception of type
 "PHPUnit\Framework\Error\Deprecated" is thrown.
 }}}

 This converts the native PHPUnit `::expectDeprecation()` method call in
 the test to a set of individual WP-specific `::setExpectedDeprecated()`
 method calls in order to not depend on PHPUnit behavior that is no longer
 the default.

 Additionally, this commit includes support for catching deprecation
 notices from `_deprecated_file()` function calls to the
 `WP_UnitTestCase_Base::expectDeprecated()` method.

 Follow-up to [46205], [46625], [48996], [51563], [51852], [51871].

 Props jrf, netweb, SergeyBiryukov.
 See #54183, #54029, #53363.
