 This tickets relates to https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/17493
 about showing examples of blocks in the Block Library Preview. These block
 previews contain images that need to be hosted somewhere.

 What we've tried:

 1. Base64 encoding the images was too large.
 2. Linking to external sources that were out of our control, like
 wikipedia, was a concern.

 Neither of those options worked, so it's opted to host these images on
 w.org. Included is a zip of some public domain images pulled from
 wikipedia. Can we get these added to the w.org CDN for this purpose before
 WP 5.3 RC1? Thanks!
