 This ticket focuses on removing jQuery as a frontend dependency for Twenty
 Sixteen when the site is running WordPress >= 6.5 where we can leverage
 the Interactivity API instead.

 This is similar to https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/55126 which
 proposes replacing jQuery with vanilla JavaScript.

 Note:
 - Leveraging the Interactivity API for core themes will help us test and
 consume our own APIs.
 - The Interactivity API will already be enqueued if any block leveraging
 the API is used (Query, expanding Search and Navigation for example)
 - Existing code would stay in place for cases where the theme is used on
 WordPress < 6.5.
