Comment (by schlessera):

 I think it should probably be something shipped with Core, to properly
 version the schema in accordance with the Core version in use. Otherwise,
 you'd need to have an argument to version the API endpoint requests with,
 and you'd need to always update the API endpoint during the development
 cycle of Core if changes are needed.

 The important bit is that it shouldn't be logic you need to execute within
 the runtime context of WordPress, but rather static information you can
 just read even if WordPress is not running, like a static JSON file.

 It could be something like `wp-includes/blocks/schema.json`, for example.
 I know that `wp-includes` would generally be considered PHP includes, but
 there are already JSON files in the `wp-includes/blocks` subfolders that
 set a precedent.
