💡 Theme/Plugin Editors: disable by default

[viktorix]

Context

The petition received much support to implement this change for new installs. This would be a good inclusion for v2.

Possible implemantion

@mattyrob suggested an easy solution:

In order to get this into the code without it being a breaking change couldn’t we just add:
define( 'DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true );
to the wp-config-sample.php file for new installs?

If this is all it takes, I think we should include it to improve overall security.

Will you be able to help with the implementation?

If it's only a new constant being added to wp-config-sample.php, then yes I can submit a PR.

I agree to add the constant to wp-config-sample.php.
