d9b35c8e98 App Passwords: Unify availability language.
Previously App Passwords used a mix of "enabled" and "available". We've now standardized on using "available".

Additionally, we now use a 501 status code when indicating that App Passwords is not available.

Props SergeyBiryukov, ocean90, TimothyBlynJacobs.

ce34d0ab00 App Passwords: Support an app_id to uniquely identify instances of an app.
Apps may now optionally include an `app_id` parameter when directing the user to the Authorize Application screen. This allows for instances of an application to be identified and potentially revoked or blocked.

d5ebe12f11 REST API: Introduce Application Passwords for API authentication.
In WordPress 4.4 the REST API was first introduced. A few releases later in WordPress 4.7, the Content API endpoints were added, paving the way for Gutenberg and countless in-site experiences. In the intervening years, numerous plugins have built on top of the REST API. Many developers shared a common frustration, the lack of external authentication to the REST API.

This commit introduces Application Passwords to allow users to connect to external applications to their WordPress website. Users can generate individual passwords for each application, allowing for easy revocation and activity monitoring. An authorization flow is introduced to make the connection flow simple for users and application developers.

Application Passwords uses Basic Authentication, and by default is only available over an SSL connection.
