Brings consistency to the `rest_insert_*` actions. Also includes some shuffling and clean-up as well including:
- Ensure we are passing the most current `$post` and `$user` objects to the `update_additional_fields_for_object()` callbacks.
- Changes the function signature of `handle_status_param()` in the Comments controller to accept just the comment_id as the 2nd parameter, instead of a full WP_Comment object. Only the comment_id is needed in the method, this avoids having to include another `get_comment()` call.
- Renames a variable in the `create_item()` method of the Posts controller from `$post` -> `$prepared_post` to be more explicit.

Hiding WP_Query params under the filter key (instead of allowing them to be top-level params) was one of our biggest complaints from users of v1 of our REST API.

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!"

In [36533] CURIEs were added to the API responses for the link relation URIs, this makes
it a lot easier for clients to look up links by relation. That patch was functional, but
broke on edge cases such as embedded responses and collection items with links in the items.
This patch instead takes a less obtrusive approach by creating a new `get_compact_response_links`
to compliment `get_response_links` making both old and new functionality available.
Also the regex for curie relations has been relaxed to `.+` as rel names can have any uri-valid charector in it.
