 In [changeset:"48947" 48947]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="48947"
 REST API: Refactor `WP_REST_Server::dispatch()` to make internal logic
 reusable.

 #50244 aims to introduce batch processing in the REST API. An important
 feature is the ability to enforce that all requests have valid data before
 executing the route callbacks in "pre-validate" mode.

 This necessitates splitting `WP_REST_Server::dispatch()` into two methods
 so the batch controller can determine the request handler to perform pre-
 validation and then respond to the requests.

 The two new methods, `match_request_to_handler` and `respond_to_request`,
 have a public visibility, but are marked as `@access private`. This is to
 allow for iteration on the batch controller to happen in the Gutenberg
 repository. Developers should not rely upon these methods, their
 visibility may change in the future.

 See #50244.
