-------------------------+-------------------------
 Controls are currently assumed to be always contained within sections in
 the customizer. This makes it difficult to reuse the controls in other
 contexts, such as embedding multiple controls inside another control or
 embedding a control outside the context of the customizer entirely.

 Some of the hacks required to get controls to appear outside of the
 customizer can be seen in https://github.com/xwp/standalone-customizer-
 controls

 The Media control in particular needs to be updated to remove the logic
 resize the player controls when the section is expanded. The `embed`
 method (used by widgets) also needs to not wait generally for a contained
 section to expand.

 Key dependency for #29071 (Make it easier to include an instance of the
 Customizer outside of customize.php)

 Depends on or is closely related to #37964 (Allow customizer controls to
 be encapsulated by accepting pre-instantiated settings)
