feat: Expand application password abilities

Allow authenticating for `admin-ajax` and post preview requests with
application passwords. This enables cookie-less clients--e.g, the iOS
and Android mobile apps--to successfully authenticate these requests.

refactor: VideoPress utilizes the @wordpress/api-fetch utility

Utilize the `@wordpress/api-fetch` utility to align with WordPress core
and enable usage of its functionality. Namely, leveraging middleware for
configuring requests.

@dcalhoun
fix: VideoPress conditionally uses apiFetch for GutenbergKit
5d53688 
The `get-media-token` logic is utilized in a lot of contexts--WP Admin,
site front end, etc. We cannot rely upon `apiFetch` universally, as it
is unavailable in some of these contexts. This resulted in the error
below.

```
[Error] TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'window.wp.apiFetch')
```

Adding `@wordpress/api-fetch` as a dependency is a non-starter as it
would unnecessarily increase the bundle size. Instead, we scope the
`apiFetch` usage to GutenbergKit, where it is available and needed for
token authentication through middleware. This also reduces the overall
reach of the changes.
