Allow pages to be marked as 'experimental' in package.json, and filter them out when IS_WORDPRESS_CORE env var is set during build. The site-editor-v2 page is now marked as experimental. When building for WordPress Core (IS_WORDPRESS_CORE=true), experimental pages and their routes are excluded from the build output. Implementation: - Add 'experimental' flag to page definitions in wpPlugin.pages - Preserve the flag during page normalization in build.mjs - Filter out experimental pages and their routes when IS_WORDPRESS_CORE is truthy - Update route registry and route PHP generation to use filtered routes Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

What?
Allow pages to be marked as
experimentalinpackage.json, and filter them out when building for WordPress Core.Why?
The
site-editor-v2page is experimental and should not be included in WordPress Core builds. This change provides a mechanism to exclude experimental pages by setting theIS_WORDPRESS_COREenvironment variable during the build process.How?
experimental: trueflag to page entries inwpPlugin.pagesIS_WORDPRESS_COREis truthyThe change is backward-compatible: existing pages without the flag default to non-experimental and are always included.
