#41463: Improve REST API tests that don't perform any assertions

-------------------------+------------------------------
 There are a bunch of REST API tests that don't perform any assertions.
 This creates noise in the test results as they get marked as risky tests.

 These tests are present because their test class extends the abstract
 `WP_Test_REST_Controller_Testcase` class, which requires several methods
 to be implemented which don't make sense for all REST API routes.

 These tests can be improved so they do actually perform assertions related
 to their behaviour.
