If pretty permalinks is enabled and wp-admin lives in a directory, settings page can't get endpoints

This does open my eyes to the fact that I have additional testing to do for multisite, too. These functions won't work properly on multisite installs but I thought I'd patch this for now and circle back to those.

Try:

var restPath = '<?php echo rest_url(); ?>';

See:

Going further:

1. Get routes by PHP:

   $wp_rest_server = rest_get_server();
   $routes = $wp_rest_server->get_routes();

2. Pass routes to JS via wp_localize_script

This can save some jQuery ajax code.

Or, we don't need the JS part at all

Converted admin page to php-based rather than JS-based: https://github.com/dmchale/disable-json-api/commit/6af19e4377efdc639ad53ee08dbdc3df15753f95
