 While testing Block Bindings API, we realized that we don't have a robust
 mechanism for extending block context of supported block types. The
 approach to manually update every block type's `usesContext` in
 `block.json` file doesn’t scale at all. Hardocing the list of injected
 `useContext` entries is also limiting. We decided to formalize it in the
 registration of the block bindings source. This way, every author of the
 block bindings source can decide what entries from the block context they
 want to consume.
