New description:

 As of r6068, the navigation.js file has been commented out of the `wporg`
 parent theme, which means the child themes need to re-enqueue it from
 scratch (and if it's changed, the versions need to be bumped across all
 instances).

 Instead, we could use `wp_register_script` in the parent theme to set up
 the file & information, and let child themes opt in to using it with
 `wp_enqueue_script( 'wporg-navigation' )`.

 Example of a child theme re-enqueuing the file:
