Peter Wilson 4d2abda74a Roles/Caps: Return same result from current_user_can and user_can(). ...

Ensure `current_user_can()` and `user_can()` return the same results for logged out users. For core capabilities this changes `user_can( 0, 'exist' )` to return `true` rather than `false` in line with `current_user_can( 'exist' )` for logged out users.

Convert `current_user_can()` and `current_user_can_for_blog()` to wrapper functions ultimately calling `user_can()`.

Add anonymous user to primitive capability checks as appropriate. Convert `Tests_User_Capabilities::test_other_caps_for_all_roles()` to use a data provider and add tests to check whether user exists in the database (`WP_User::exists()`) as that intentionally differs from the `exist` capability.

Fixes #52076.
