#65112: Docs: Correct typos in JS inline comments and docblocks

--------------------------+-----------------------------
Five typos exist in WordPress-authored JavaScript comments and docblocks
under `src/js/_enqueues/`:
1. `src/js/_enqueues/wp/api.js:986` — "add nince and pagination support"
should be "nonce". (The next docblock line correctly uses "nonce",
confirming the intent.)
2. `src/js/_enqueues/wp/api.js:1291` — "Clear the parent part of the
rouite if its actually the version string" should be "route" (and
"its" → "it's"). Both are fixed in the attached patch.
3. `src/js/_enqueues/wp/customize/controls.js:593` — "Dates not beung
allowed for revisions..." should be "being".
4. `src/js/_enqueues/wp/customize/nav-menus.js:3542` — docblock says
`returning a "unnammed" fallback string` — should be "unnamed". The
actual code at line 3553 correctly references `l10n.unnamed`, so the
docblock is currently quoting the wrong spelling.
5. `src/js/_enqueues/lib/admin-bar.js:420` — "Get the closest matching
elent" should be "element".
The attached patch updates only the authoritative `_enqueues` sources.
The corresponding build artifacts under `src/wp-admin/js/` and
`src/wp-includes/js/` are regenerated by `grunt` and are .gitignored.
Adjacent issue (not included in this patch): line 593 of controls.js
also contains an "are is" grammar error ("...for revisions are is a
technical limitation..."). Happy to fold into this patch or address in
a follow-up per committer preference.
