Comment (by Clorith):

 Having looked at how the test is set up, I actually will re-evaluate my
 previous suggestion, since the test sets headers to run at all, this will
 lead to more confusing logic than just outright skipping that test if not
 applicable.

 With that knowledge in hand, we should instead do the same as with the
 REST API availability check, and only conditionally add it if
 `wp_is_site_protected_by_basic_auth` returns `false`
