Adding a brand new anonymous comment method is a potential conduit for spam. Since it's still useful functionality, we're now hiding it behind a filter to allow plugins and themes to turn it on if they do want it.

Users without the moderate_comments capability can no longer set the `author_ip` property directly, and instead receive a `WP_Error` if they attempt to do so. Otherwise, the `author_ip property` is populated from `$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']` if present and a valid IP value. Finally, fallback to 127.0.0.1 as a last resort.

WordPress has not used the `karma` property internally for the past 8 years. There is no need to expose it in the REST API endpoints. Sites that use `karma` can include it using the `register_rest_field()` function.

Of the default comment_types, only comments are expected to be created via the REST API endpoint. Comments do not have registered types the way that Posts do, so we do not have a method to accurately check permissions for arbitrary comment types.

For developers wanting to add their own registered collection parameters, they can now use the `rest_$type_collection_params` filter. This brings consistency with the already existing `rest_$post_type_collection_params`.

Additionally, use these meta-caps in the REST API endpoints.
Previously, register_meta()'s auth_callback had no effect for non-post meta. This introduces `{add,edit,delete}_{comment,term,user}_meta` meta-caps to match the existing post meta capabilities. These are currently only used in the REST API.

Add the `deleted` property to the root of the Response object to communicate if the delete action was successful. Move the state of the resource prior to the delete request under a new `previous` property. As a result DELETE responses are now structured like so:
`{ deleted: true, previous: { ... } }`
Also includes helpful information to DELETE requests for resources that are not trashable.

Introduces `wp_check_comment_data_max_lengths()` which allows both the REST API comments endpoints and `wp_handle_comment_submission()` to check the length of the comment content, author name, author url, and author email fields against their respective database columns.

Some parameters (`title`, `content`, etc) are objects in the output, but allow objects or strings to be sent in updates for a more ergonomic interface. This is pretty weird behaviour, so the default sanitisation doesn't handle this. We instead handle this ourselves in the preparation.

As of WordPress 4.3 the `wp_new_comment()` function has been updated to allow the comment_agent value to be set when a comment is created. The comments API endpoint now allows the comment author's user agent to be set when creating a comment.
Also, the `readonly` property on the `author_user_agent` parameter in the schema was removed.

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!"
