WordPress uses `is_user_member_of_blog()` in the rest api controllers to
prevent the user endpoints running for non-members of the site.
For WordPress.org this caused an issue as 'no' users are members of the
site on which we wanted users to be able to use the rest-api endpoints for
various account purposes.
This was resolved through faking the metadata such that it always returned
truthful, without granting additional capabilities:

I've run into another use-case for it, where I want to dynamically grant a
user access to a site, but I don't want to give the user a role directly.
Causing me to use the same metadata filter approach.
A filter on `is_user_member_of_blog` would make this a lot simpler.
