Comment (by dingo_bastard):

 > This is read-only, as the locations are defined in code, not stored in
 the database.

 A `POST` request could be made on the same endpoint where you provide
 location name, then a check could be made in the callback function that
 will check if the location name is taken using
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_registered_nav_menus/
 get_registered_nav_menus()], and if the check passes one could register
 new nav menu using
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_nav_menus/
 register_nav_menus()].

 I can try to make a patch for this.
