 by the host or not)

 For clarity, here are the current possible states as coded now in `trunk`:

 1. Disabled by default (shipped state)
 2. Disabled in code by setting `WP_ALLOW_COLLABORATION` to `false`
 (supersedes all other controls)
 3. Enabled or disabled in code using the
 `pre_option_wp_collaboration_enabled` filter
 4. Enabled or disabled by admins using the Writing setting

 Note 1: It is not possible to use the
 `default_option_wp_collaboration_enabled` filter, because the option is
 set to `'0'` on install and upgrade (via `populate_options`):

 https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/e40e13bc843c88f3a4696417feaa93963ef32cdb/src/wp-
 admin/includes/schema.php#L568

 Note 2: Using the `pre_option_wp_collaboration_enabled` filter means that
 changes attempted via Writing settings will be ignored. (The same would be
 true of all settings included in `populate_options`.)
