Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"54332" 54332]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="54332"
 Bootstrap/Load: Revert the `is_*_admin_screen()` aliases for
 `is_*_admin()` function family.

 After some further discussion, it is apparent that the added clarity was
 subjective, and the `_screen` suffix may not always be appropriate, e.g.
 in Ajax context. To address any confusion with the existing names, the
 documentation for these functions can be updated instead.

 Additionally, the `is_super_admin_user()` alias for `is_super_admin()` is
 reverted as well, which may be reconsidered in the future.

 Follow-up to [54259].
