Comment:

 In [changeset:"53825" 53825]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="53825"
 Posts, Post Types: Change variable name in `wp_set_post_terms()` for
 clarity.

 This changes the `$tags` variable used within `wp_set_post_terms()` to
 `$terms`.

 While the default for the `$taxonomy` argument is `post_tag`, the function
 can be used to assign terms to a post for any taxonomy. When a different
 taxonomy is passed, `$tags` is an inaccurate name and could be confusing.

 Props hilayt24, costdev, SergeyBiryukov, krishaweb, desrosj.
 Fixes #56331.
