Adam Silverstein e3d5e1c6c8 REST API: improve test fixture generation, normalizing data.
Add a data normalization pass when generating data fixtures for the REST API endpoints. Ensures that the `wp-api-generated.js` fixture won't change between test runs. Set more default properties and use fixed values for any properties that can't be easily controlled (object IDs and derivatives like link). Generate the fixture file with JSON_PRETTY_PRINT so that future diffs are easier to follow.

Props jnylen0, netweb.
Fixes #39264.

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.
