Description

Since we want to encourage theme authors to start experimenting with the full site editing feature and block patterns, we agreed to add new tags to the themes API that would accommodate that.

I've added two new tags: full-site-editing and block-patterns.

I'll create a core ticket for the get_theme_feature_list function as well (fallback).

The new tags should not be available until the features are in core, because themes cannot require a plugin (Gutenberg).

We need to prepare for them, that's why we added those. We are working on a make post, it will be published soon, with all the explanation.
