 This ticket tracks the backport of PHP files for the following Gutenberg
 update:

 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75859

 Adds `background.gradient` as a new block support, enabling blocks to have
 a gradient picker in the Background panel. This is separate from the
 existing color.gradient in the Color panel and allows blocks to combine a
 background gradient with a background image via comma-separated
 background-image CSS values.

 The ability to move away from the shorthand `background` CSS property for
 block supports is also required to unblock further design tooling
 improvements such as text gradients.
