Tonya Mork e1f5600c15 REST API: Support . in theme directory names in WP_REST_Global_Styles_Controller, WP_REST_Templates_Controller, and WP_REST_Themes_Controller.
Regex changes from [52376] are reverted to restore the original regex patterns. Why? [52376] used an include characters pattern, which was too limiting. It did not account for localized characters, such as `é`, or other valid directory name characters.

The original theme directory regex pattern, i.e. `[^.\/]+(?:\/[^.\/]+)?` excluded the period `.` character. Removing the `.` character resolves the reported issue by allowing matching for `themes/theme-dirname-1.0/` or `themes/<subdirname>/theme-dirname-1.0/`.

As the pattern used an exclude approach, all characters are valid for matching except for `/`. However, not all characters are cross-platform valid for directory names. For example, the characters `/:<>*?"|` are not valid on Windows OS. The pattern now excludes those characters.

The theme's directory (or subdirectory) name pattern matching is now used in `WP_REST_Global_Styles_Controller`, `WP_REST_Templates_Controller`, and `WP_REST_Themes_Controller`.

Follow-up to [51003], [52051], [52275], [52376].
