Comment (by ryelle):

 The `block.json` is the easiest way to get this info (since it's already
 in a format we can parse and get the value from directly). The next best
 way to get block titles is from the JS `registerBlockType` call (which is
 working for OER Curriculum's "Curriculum Thumbnail Block" block), but this
 is done with a regex, so it expects very specific formatting - the `title`
 must be the first value in the config object, with no comments/etc before
 it.

 The script also checks PHP files for `register_block_type`, but it doesn't
 even try to find a title.

 ([https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/wordpress.org/public_html
 /wp-content/plugins/plugin-directory/cli/class-import.php#L747 code source
 for finding blocks.])

 Aside from improving that JS regex, what would be a better fallback? Maybe
 human-ify the block name, so it would go from `ryelle/recipe` to "Ryelle
 Recipe", `opinion-stage/block-os-poll` to "Opinion Stage Block Os Poll"?
