 When embedding a mobile variant of a Tweet URL, the Gutenberg Embed block
 considers the URL to be an invalid embed.

 == Steps to Reproduce

 1. Add an Embed block via the web or native mobile Gutenberg block editor.
 2. Set the Embed block URL to a mobile Twitter URL:
 https://mobile.twitter.com/rauchg/status/807626710350839808
 3. Save the Embed block settings, persisting the URL.

 == Expected Result

 The Embed block displays a preview of the Tweet as an embed.

 == Actual Result

 The Embed block marks the URL as invalid, resulting in a error message or
 a plain text URL.
