Test using WordPress Playground

The changes in this pull request can previewed and tested using a WordPress Playground instance.

WordPress Playground is an experimental project that creates a full WordPress instance entirely within the browser.

Some things to be aware of

• The Plugin and Theme Directories cannot be accessed within Playground.
• All changes will be lost when closing a tab with a Playground instance.
• All changes will be lost when refreshing the page.
• A fresh instance is created each time the link below is clicked.
• Every time this pull request is updated, a new ZIP file containing all changes is created. If changes are not reflected in the Playground instance,
  it's possible that the most recent build failed, or has not completed. Check the list of workflow runs to be sure.

For more details about these limitations and more, check out the Limitations page in the WordPress Playground documentation.

Tested. Only thing I ran into was permission needing updating on the shell script. Submitted a PR to add that via desrosj#153

[desrosj]

Thanks @kraftbj! I've merged that.

To bring a brief summary here, here are a few things I don't love about the current implementation (though not strongly opposed to):

• I don't love adding gh as a requirement for the script.
• I would prefer that the necessary script be included in Grunt.js instead of a separate directory for shell scripts (where this will be the only one).

[kraftbj]

I don't love adding gh either, but given that we do use GitHub as a partner service extensively already, it seems okay for now to get this out the door.

I tried to make it all part of the Grunt JS file in desrosj#154 -- can you give that a spin?

[desrosj]

Thanks all for keeping this going! I think we're at a good spot. There's just one outstanding question about what seems like an unintentional deleted line.

[kraftbj]

I concur. If the deletion was intentional (I'm not sure why it would be), it should be noted in the commit to explain the connection. But, with that line restored, LGTM.

[desrosj]

It was me that removed that line, wasn't it? Just realized that looking through this again. 🙃

Since I can't recall why I included that, or see a reason how it's related, I've gone and removed it.

I also added a new step to the Actions workflow that tests our build process to run the precommit:emoji script to confirm all expected changes are included. GitHub is not syncing pushes right now for some reason. But once I confirm it correctly flags missing changes, I'll get this merged.

As the script currently reads the files from the main branch, this may need to use something version specific so it doesn't trigger build failures due to modified files as the folder is updated upstream.

I've tested using a tag reference instead of branch, and it seems to work alright. Talked through this a bit in Slack with @peterwilsoncc and since this adds an additional spot to update when updating the library, it would be nice to automate it a bit.
