 In [changeset:"41979"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="41979"
 REST API: Allow passing existing template value for posts even when
 template no longer exists.

 Also remove `enum` for validating allowed templates to allow plugins to
 dynamically supply their own templates for specific posts, even when they
 are not in the theme.

 Props TimothyBlynJacobs, jnylen0, swissspidy.
 Fixes #39996.
