 There is an existing schema for block type definition embedded in the new
 REST API endpoint:

 https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/c3993eb19dee52dfd6ca9f9ef7cec785538e361d/src/wp-includes
 /rest-api/endpoints/class-wp-rest-block-types-controller.php#L363-L569

 There is also another schema being developed for Block Directory that will
 take part in `block.json` file validation:

 https://github.com/tellyworth/plugin-
 directory/blob/25388b9c12193194a16db5264ed84f2f3965552e/block-json/class-
 validator.php#L36-L182

 It would be great to consolidate efforts and make such schema publicly
 accessible as it would benefit other projects in the WordPress ecosystem
 like WP-CLI. There is a related discussion related to translatable strings
 extraction, see https://github.com/wp-cli/i18n-
 command/pull/210#issuecomment-634107470

 > This kind of schema would need to live somewhere outside of WordPress
 context, where WP-CLI and other tools can easily assess which fields in
 `block.json` are translatable and which aren't.
