 Audio and Video attachments can have a featured image. This data is not
 currently returned by the REST API `wp/v2/media` endpoint. Part of the
 problem is that the schema for attachments is generated by the Post
 controller, even though the Post controller does not return data for
 attachments. Because the schema is used by the `OPTIONS` endpoint, before
 knowing what mime-type the attachment is, `thumbnail` should be set for
 attachment's attributes so that `featured_media` is added to the responses
 from `wp/v2/media`.
