Comment (by TobiasBg):

 PHP 8.5 deprecates non-canonical scalar type casts
 (boolean|double|integer|binary) deprecated.

 In the Core codebase, I found these in 3 separate files, all from external
 libraries.

 For the getID3 library, I created a PR
 [https://github.com/JamesHeinrich/getID3/pull/469 upstream].

 Two more occurrences are in the IXR and JSON libraries, which are
 unmaintained and therefore can be updated directly in Core, for which I
 created this PR:
 https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/9592
