If your HP drop to 0, you are knocked Unconscious. You would also drop out of Wild Shape (because you drop out of Wild Shape when Incapacitated, and Unconscious includes Incapacitated).
The reason this works differently now is that in the old version, if you took the form of something with very low HP, you would often get knocked out of Wild Shape by taking a single hit. Now, you can keep your Wild Shape active as long as you yourself are conscious, regardless of what form you take.

So you drop wild shape when:
The Duration ends
You are incapacitated (Stunned for example)
You die.
You leave the form early as a bonus action.
You gain THP so your using those up first then your regular HP.
In practice being incapacitated is the main way you will be forced out of Wild Shape in a fight.
If your HP drop to 0, you are knocked Unconscious. You would also drop out of Wild Shape (because you drop out of Wild Shape when Incapacitated, and Unconscious includes Incapacitated).
