Comment:

 In [changeset:"39179"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="39179"
 Roles/Capabilities: Add meta-caps for comment, term, and user meta.

 Additionally, use these meta-caps in the REST API endpoints.

 Previously, register_meta()'s auth_callback had no effect for non-post
 meta. This introduces `{add,edit,delete}_{comment,term,user}_meta` meta-
 caps to match the existing post meta capabilities. These are currently
 only used in the REST API.

 Props tharsheblows, boonebgorges.
 Fixes #38303, fixes #38412.
