#48213: The XML-RPC endpoint should return a more appropriate HTTP status code when
it's disabled

--------------------------+-----------------------------
 When the XML-RPC endpoint is disabled via a false return value on the
 `xmlrpc_enabled` filter, a POST request to `/xmlrpc.php` receives an HTTP
 200 response code along with the error message.

 A more appropriate response code would be either 403 or 405, the latter of
 which mirrors the `IXR_Error` code used internally.
