REST API endpoints for your WordPress content. These endpoints provide machine-readable external access to your WordPress site with a clear, standards-driven interface, allowing new and innovative apps for interacting with your site. These endpoints support all of the following:
- Posts: Read and write access to all post data, for all types of post-based data, including pages and media.
- Comments: Read and write access to all comment data. This includes pingbacks and trackbacks.
- Terms: Read and write access to all term data.
- Users: Read and write access to all user data. This includes public access to some data for post authors.
- Meta: Read and write access to metadata for posts, comments, terms, and users, on an opt-in basis from plugins.
- Settings: Read and write access to settings, on an opt-in basis from plugins and core. This enables API management of key site content values that are technically stored in options, such as site title and byline.
Love your REST API, WordPress! The infrastructure says, "Let's do lunch!" but the content API endpoints say, "You're paying!"

An OPTIONS request was incorrectly returning an "Accept" header which
was a typo of "Allow". This meant Accept was showing "GET, POST" for example,
however it was also not running the permission checks on the endpoints.
Instead, the correct route needs to be set on the request object, which means
the normal handling for the Allow header will kick in. This technically
breaks backwards compatibility, however given the value of Accept was also wrong
then this should not be an issue.

`rest_handle_deprecated_function`: you get better parameter descriptions.
`rest_handle_deprecated_argument`: you get a corrected parameter name ($replacement->$message), appropriate i18n translation hints, and better parameter descriptions.

Baby API was born at 2.8KLOC on October 8th at 2:30 UTC. API has lots
of growing to do, so wish it the best of luck.
Thanks to everyone who helped along the way:
