 REST API: Require the reassign parameter when deleting users.

 When deleting a user through the WordPress admin, a specific decision is
 presented - whether to assign all of the user's posts to another user, or
 to delete all of the posts.

 This change requires `reassign` as a parameter in the corresponding REST
 API endpoint, so that content isn't accidentally lost.

 Merges [39426] to the 4.7 branch.

 Props jeremyfelt.
 Fixes #39000.
