Joe McGill 5815624ead Editor: Support deferred block variation initialization on the server.
When registering blocks on the server using `register_block_type()` or similar functions, a set of block type variations can also be registered. However, in some cases building this variation data during block registration can be an expensive process, which is not needed in most contexts. 

To address this problem, this adds support to the `WP_Block_Type` object for a new property, `variation_callback`, which can be used to register a callback for building variation data only when the block variations data is needed. The `WP_Block_Type::variations` property has been changed to a private property that is now accessed through the magic `__get()` method. The magic getter makes use of a new public method, `WP_Block_Type::get_variations` which will build variations from a registered callback if variations have not already been built.

Fixes #59969.

The short version:

1. Create a clean MySQL database and user. DO NOT USE AN EXISTING DATABASE or you will lose data, guaranteed.

2. Copy wp-tests-config-sample.php to wp-tests-config.php, edit it and include your database name/user/password.

3. $ svn up

4. Run the tests from the "trunk" directory:
   To execute a particular test:
      $ phpunit tests/phpunit/tests/test_case.php
   To execute all tests:
      $ phpunit

Notes:

Test cases live in the 'tests' subdirectory. All files in that directory will be included by default. Extend the WP_UnitTestCase class to ensure your test is run.

phpunit will initialize and install a (more or less) complete running copy of WordPress each time it is run. This makes it possible to run functional interface and module tests against a fully working database and codebase, as opposed to pure unit tests with mock objects and stubs. Pure unit tests may be used also, of course.

Changes to the test database will be rolled back as tests are finished, to ensure a clean start next time the tests are run.

phpunit is intended to run at the command line, not via a web server.
