Comment (by rachelbaker):

 In [changeset:"42422"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="42422"
 REST API: Return the proper status code for failed permission callbacks in
 WP_REST_Server->dispatch().

 Use the rest_authorization_required_code() function to return a 401 status
 code when a permission callback fails due to a user not being logged in.

 Merges [42421] to the 4.9 branch.

 Props jaswrks.
 Fixes #42828.
