Message:

Themes: Allow remote pattern registration in theme.json when core patterns are disabled.

In 6.0 there is now a functionality that allows to register selected remote patterns (from the Pattern Directory) via theme.json. However, it requires to fully enable all core and remote patterns. This can be a blocker for user adoption.

Many theme authors want to have all core and remote patterns disabled by default using remove_theme_support( 'core-block-patterns' ). This changeset ensures they are serving only patterns relevant to their theme.

This changeset removes theme support check from the function that registers remote patterns specified in theme.json. This allows theme authors to disable core patterns but then selectively register the ones they want from the Pattern Directory. If a theme author intentionally specifies patterns in theme.json, they probably intend for them to be present in the pattern inserter and the check is not required.

This change will make the Pattern Directory more appealing/usable from the theme author's perspective.

Props ndiego, ryelle.
Fixes #56112.
