Message:

KSES: Allow leading trailing double hyphen in data attributes

Expand allowable set of custom data attribute names to include those containing
leading, trailing, and double - characters. Previously, WordPress was
removing data attributes that are used in the Interactivity API. By allowing
these additional custom data attributes, the related Interactivity API
directives will preserve through kses.

For example, the Interactivity API frequently relies on custom data attributes
such as data-wp-on--click="...". The change in [43981] would strip these out
of the processed HTML, however.

Developed in ​https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/6598
Discussed in https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/61052

Props cbravobernal, dmsnell, gziolo, jonsurrell.
Follow-up to [43981].
Fixes #61052.
