 REST API: Allow setting post formats even if they are not supported by the
 theme.

 A `post_format` not used by the current theme, but supported by core is
 not a wrong/broken piece of information.  It's just not used at this point
 in time.  Therefore we should allow setting and retrieving any of the
 standard post formats supported in core, even if the current theme doesn't
 use them.

 After this commit, a post's `format` value can survive a round trip
 through the API, which is a good general design principle for an API.

 Props JPry, iseulde, davidakennedy, Drivingralle.
 Fixes #39232.
