Message:

General: Preserve back-compat for wp.sanitize.stripTags() to return empty string when passed null/undefined.

This also bumps the esversion to 11 in tests/qunit/.jshintrc to match the root .jshintrc, following [61544] for #64562.

Follow-up to [61347], [60907].

Props westonruter, jonsurrell, mukesh27, hugod.
See #64274.
Fixes #64574.
