This mirrors our existing support for `?{taxonomy}=` filtering in the
posts controller (which allows querying for only records with are
associated with any of the provided term IDs for the specified taxonomy)
by adding an equivalent `_exclude` variant to list IDs of terms for which
associated posts should NOT be returned.
For categories _e.g._, `/wp/v2/posts?categories[]=7&categories[]=9` would
return a post in categories 7 _or_ 9; this PR adds support for the inverse
query `?categories_exclude[]=7&categories_exclude[]=9`, meaning "only
return posts that are associated with neither category 7 or category 9."
`{term base}_exclude` is supported for any taxonomy registered with the API,
and is set within the same loop inside the controller as the existing term
include parameters.
While using the existing categories filter with a negative number was
considered ([see slack discussion][slack-disc]), `{base}_exclude` maintains
more consistency with other exclusion filters present in the API such as
`parent_exclude` (and is much easier to implement, to boot).

PR #2756 added an `_exclude` complement to every registered taxonomy query parameter method, e.g. `categories_exclude`, to permit an API consumer to list an array of term IDs with which returned posts should NOT be associated. However, that PR omitted the important step of registering the parameters on the schema! This PR does so.
