    Remove the task list reminder bar from Woo admin (#64353)

    * Remove the task list reminder bar from Woo admin

    The reminder bar is a custom full-width banner shown across Woo admin
    pages (except Woo Home and active task pages) that nudges merchants
    to complete setup tasks. In practice, the bar underperforms as an
    engagement driver: merchants dismiss it more often than they click
    through, and the overwhelming majority of task list engagement
    happens on Woo Home — where the task list is the hero component.

    The Finish setup entry in the activity panel remains in place as a
    quieter, non-intrusive alternative that respects merchant attention
    while keeping setup progress discoverable.

    What's removed:
    - The TasksReminderBar component (`task-lists/reminder-bar/`)
    - The showReminderBar prop on BaseHeader and its two callsites
    - The `woocommerce_task_list_reminder_bar_hidden` option + PHP cleanup
      method (possibly_remove_reminder_bar) + the allow-list entry
    - Tracks events: tasklist_reminder_bar_view/close/continue stop
      firing (noted as deprecated for analytics consumers)
    - e2e test setup lines that set the (now dead) option

    Incidental cleanup:
    - The useUpdateBodyMargin hook no longer returns its callback
      (only the reminder bar imperatively invoked it). The hook still
      syncs #wpbody margin on header resize, preserving layout behavior.
    - Removed a PHPStan baseline entry for the deleted method.

    * Address CodeRabbit review feedback

    - Remove no-op page fixtures in two e2e tests (product-delete,
      create-product-attributes). After the reminder-bar setup was
      removed, these fixtures just forwarded the default page fixture,
      so the custom extension is unnecessary.
    - Strengthen the "debounce multiple rapid resizes" test in
      shared.test.js. The previous version only asserted the final
      margin value after advancing timers; now also asserts that the
      margin is NOT set during the rapid resize burst, so the test
      actually verifies debounce behavior rather than just post-debounce
      state.

    Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

    * Strengthen debounce test to assert coalescence

    CodeRabbit flagged that the "should debounce multiple rapid resizes"
    test could pass even if the debounced callback fired multiple times,
    since the final marginTop would still be '100px' regardless.

    Swap the static clientHeight value for a jest.fn getter so we can
    count reads. The test now asserts:

    - Before the debounce window elapses: clientHeight NOT read yet.
    - After advancing timers: clientHeight read exactly once.

    This actually proves the debounce coalesced three resize events into
    a single clientHeight read, instead of just verifying the end state.

    * Document the mount-time coupling in the debounce test

    CodeRabbit pointed out that the debounce test's pre-advance assertion
    relies on a specific implementation detail: useUpdateBodyMargin's
    initial mount measurement runs through the same 200ms debounce path,
    not synchronously. Add a NOTE comment so future maintainers know
    the test will need updating if the hook switches to a synchronous
    mount-time measurement.

    * Address review: restore PHP API stubs and add DB migration

    mordeth's review on PR #64353 flagged two public PHP symbols removed without
    a deprecation path, plus the orphaned option left in wp_options after the
    reminder bar removal. All three are addressed here:

    - TaskList::REMINDER_BAR_HIDDEN_OPTION is restored as a @deprecated constant
      to prevent fatal "Undefined class constant" errors in third-party code.
    - TaskList::possibly_remove_reminder_bar() is restored as a @deprecated stub
      that calls wc_deprecated_function(). Same rationale.
    - wc_update_1080_remove_task_list_reminder_bar_hidden_option() cleans up
      the orphan woocommerce_task_list_reminder_bar_hidden option from existing
      stores, following the established pattern used most recently for the
      order attribution banner in PR #55852.

    Changelog entry expanded to mention the REST options allowlist removal
    and the deprecation stubs.

    * Address dmallory42 review: move DB migration to 10.9.0, fix version annotations

    The DB cleanup callback was registered under the already-released 10.8.0 bucket,
    meaning stores already on 10.8.x would skip it. Moves to 10.9.0 per dmallory42's
    review on PR #64353.

    - Renamed wc_update_1080_remove_task_list_reminder_bar_hidden_option →
      wc_update_1090_remove_task_list_reminder_bar_hidden_option and added a
      10.9.0 update bucket in class-wc-install.php.
    - Updated @deprecated and @since annotations in TaskList.php and
      wc-update-functions.php from 10.8.0 → 10.9.0.
    - Removed stale "optional reminder bar" mention from BaseHeader's docblock.

    Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

    * Fix db_update_callbacks sort order and alignment for 10.9.0 entry

    The 10.9.0 bucket was inserted before 10.8.0-2, breaking the
    WC_Install_Test::test_db_update_callbacks_versions sort-order assertion.
    Also fixes the array double-arrow alignment to match surrounding entries.

+Type: update
+
+Remove the task list reminder bar from WooCommerce admin. The Finish setup entry in the activity panel remains as a quieter, non-obstructive alternative. The `woocommerce_task_list_reminder_bar_hidden` option is removed from the wc-admin REST options allowlist, and a one-time migration cleans it up from existing stores. `TaskList::possibly_remove_reminder_bar()` and `TaskList::REMINDER_BAR_HIDDEN_OPTION` are retained as deprecation stubs.
