Test using WordPress Playground

The changes in this pull request can previewed and tested using a WordPress Playground instance.

WordPress Playground is an experimental project that creates a full WordPress instance entirely within the browser.

Some things to be aware of

• The Plugin and Theme Directories cannot be accessed within Playground.
• All changes will be lost when closing a tab with a Playground instance.
• All changes will be lost when refreshing the page.
• A fresh instance is created each time the link below is clicked.
• Every time this pull request is updated, a new ZIP file containing all changes is created. If changes are not reflected in the Playground instance,
  it's possible that the most recent build failed, or has not completed. Check the list of workflow runs to be sure.

For more details about these limitations and more, check out the Limitations page in the WordPress Playground documentation.

This has got conflicts following the change to path based site editor URLs.

As the query string parameter wasn't used and the wp_die() call removed, I am not sure this is needed anymore. But I am also not not sure.

This PR was never updated with the latest changes from the two Gutenberg PRs linked above. The intention is to replace the current "Patterns" submenu item under "Appearance" in classic themes with a "Design" item that leads to the site editor, where there are links to both Patterns and Style book.

Unfortunately I'm not able to update the PR with those changes at this point so would really appreciate if anyone could take this over!

The submenu item is added via a filter in Gutenberg, but I think in core we should be able to add it directly.

A commit was made that fixes the Trac ticket referenced in the description of this pull request.
