Comment (by wildworks):

 > @wildworks Is it feasible to add this and change the default for block
 themes only?

 Does this mean that the output of the `paginate_links()` function itself
 will automatically change when a block theme is enabled?

 Personally, I find it a bit confusing that the HTML output changes
 depending on the theme, even though the same function is used.
