 I am aware that block registration is discouraged in themes, but we have a
 use case where we only use one theme for a site. In this theme, we have
 several blocks registered, so it would be good for performance to be able
 to use `wp_register_block_metadata_collection()` in a theme.

 Currently, the underlying function
 `WP_Block_Metadata_Registry::register_collection()` checks valid paths for
 `wp-includes` and `plugins` and rejects all others.
