Prior to about 2013, many class methods lacked even access modifiers which made the `@access` notations that much more useful. Now that we've gotten to a point where the codebase is more mature from a maintenance perspective and we can finally remove these notations. Notable exceptions to this change include standalone functions notated as private as well as some classes still considered to represent "private" APIs.

* Improves parity between partials and controls. A partial or control can be settingless if instantiated with `settings` param as empty array (otherwise, if null, then the partial/control ID is used).
* Eliminate need to create dummy settings that serve no purpose except to place a control in the UI.
* Removes dummy settings for `create_new_menu` and `new_menu_name`.
* Introduces `WP_Customize_Control::$capability` and `WP_Customize_Partial::$capability`, and if set checks them in the respective `check_capabilities()` methods.
* Prevents PHP fatal error from happening when non-existing settings are provided to control: "Call to a member function `check_capabilities()` on a non-object".
* Fixes issue where nav menu items and widgets were no longer working with selective refresh because cap check was failing.
