 In the Customizer, once you save a draft or schedule changes, you are not
 able to switch themes. A notice is displayed:

 > Sorry, you can’t preview new themes when you have changes scheduled or
 saved as a draft. Please publish your changes, or wait until they publish
 to preview new themes.

 The install and preview buttons in the Themes sections are then disabled
 to prevent a user from switching themes while changes are drafted.
 However, if you go to the Themes admin screen the preview buttons are
 still enabled there, resulting in a situation where a user could open the
 Customizer for a theme switch when there are already drafted/scheduled
 changes.

 See #42126 for the reasons for why are Customizer theme switches disabled
 when there are drafted/scheduled changes.

 Two things I think we can do here:

 * Disable the live preview buttons.
 * Short-circuit `customize.php` if attempting to load a non-active theme
 with a drafted/scheduled changeset.
