Part of #82935.

What?

Matches Test_Widget::update() in the e2e test plugin (packages/e2e-tests/plugins/class-test-widget.php) to the parent signature, WP_Widget::update( $new_instance, $old_instance ). It also guards the $instance['title'] read in form() with isset(), as upstream does. Only the e2e test plugin changes.

Why?

On PHP 8 (which wp-env uses here, since .wp-env.json sets no phpVersion), the incompatible update( $new_instance ) signature is a fatal error. WordPress refuses to activate the gutenberg-test-widgets plugin, so specs/widgets/customizing-widgets.test.js times out in activatePlugin() on every run.

Upstream

A straight port of #34355 (b2c4a00), which applies cleanly. That fix reached wp/5.9 but never wp/5.8. wp/5.7 and older don't have this plugin.
