 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="41648"
 Customize: Introduce a new experience for discovering, installing, and
 previewing themes within the customizer.

 Unify the theme-browsing and theme-customization experiences by
 introducing a comprehensive theme browser and installer directly
 accessible in the customizer. Replaces the customizer theme switcher with
 a full-screen panel for discovering/browsing and installing themes
 available on WordPress.org. Themes can now be installed and previewed
 directly in the customizer without entering the wp-admin context. Also
 includes an extensible framework for browsing and installing themes from
 other sources.

 Also includes CSS auto-prefixing added via `grunt precommit:css`.

 For details, see: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2016/10/03/feature-
 proposal-a-new-experience-for-discovering-installing-and-previewing-
 themes-in-the-customizer/

 Previously [38813] but reverted in [39140].
 Fixes #37661, #34843, #38666.
